How to care for an Aglaonema Pink Spotted
Watering Aglaonema Pink Spotted
Water your Aglaonema Pink Spotted sparingly to prevent root rot. Allow the top layer of potting soil to dry slightly before watering again. Use lukewarm water and avoid cold drafts indoors. For extra moisture, you can occasionally mist the plant with a fine misting spray.
Light requirements of Aglaonema Pink Spotted
The Aglaonema Pink Spotted thrives in bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can quickly burn the leaves, while too little light can fade their color. Therefore, place the plant in a spot with diffused sunlight, for example, near a window that isn't in direct sunlight all day. This Aglaonema also thrives in shady spots, as long as you don't place it in complete darkness.
Is Aglaonema Pink Spotted poisonous?
Like many other Aglaonema species, the Pink Spotted contains toxins that can cause irritation if ingested. Keep the plant out of reach of children and pets to prevent accidents. Wear gloves when pruning or repotting to avoid skin contact with the sap. For non-toxic alternatives, please see our collection of non-toxic houseplants .
Common problems
Yellow leaves
Yellow leaves often indicate too much or too little water. First, check the moisture level in the potting soil and adjust your watering accordingly. Remember that an Aglaonema prefers to be a little too dry rather than too wet. Tip: use a moisture tester or read our blog post on preventing root rot for more tips.
Plant drips
Occasional dripping is normal: this is called guttation and helps remove waste products. However, if you see a lot of water droplets, the humidity may be too high or you've overwatered. Allow the plant to dry out thoroughly between waterings and ensure adequate air circulation. Also read our tips in the article on increasing humidity .
Plagues
Spider mites, thrips, and aphids can infest Aglaonema in dry conditions. Check the undersides of the leaves weekly and treat pests immediately with a plant sprayer or organic products. Consider hanging a sticky trap nearby to deter fungus gnats . For added safety, use our jungle mist spray every time you water.
Roots emerge from under the pot
When the roots start growing from the bottom, your Pink Spotted needs a larger pot. Repot the Aglaonema every two years, on average, into a pot one size larger. Preferably use 5-liter potting soil for aroids. This will give your plant sufficient nutrients and room to grow.
Brown leaf edges
Brown edges are often caused by excessively dry air or overfertilization. Avoid hard water and, if necessary, add some rainwater to your watering routine. Increase the humidity around your Aglaonema by placing it near a group of other plants or using a humidifier. For fertilization, you can add a mild aroid fertilizer monthly, following the instructions.
