How to care for an Aglaonema White Lance
Watering Aglaonema White Lance
Water your Aglaonema White Lance regularly, but avoid allowing the potting mix to remain constantly soaking wet. Wait until the top layer feels dry, about 2 to 3 centimeters deep, before watering again. Too little water leads to wilted leaves, while too much water can cause root rot.
Light requirements Aglaonema White Lance
The Aglaonema White Lance thrives in a spot with indirect light. Direct sunlight can burn its bright white markings, while too little light slows growth. A spot near a window with a curtain or in partial shade is ideal for this easy-care houseplant.
Common problems
Yellow leaves
Yellow leaves are often caused by overwatering or insufficient light. Check that the potting soil isn't constantly retaining water and adjust your watering routine. If necessary, move the plant closer to a window or choose a brighter spot.
Plant dripping
Dripping water at the bottom of the pot can indicate overwatering or a clogged drainage hole. Allow the top layer of soil to dry thoroughly and check the pot's drainage. If you notice standing water, consider adding a tray of clay pebbles or switching to a well-draining potting mix.
Plagues
Spider mites and thrips can nest on the Aglaonema White Lance if the humidity is too low or the plant isn't misted enough. Increase the humidity with a plant sprayer or use tips from our blog post on 5 tips to increase humidity in your home . Inspect the leaves regularly and treat pests with special pesticides or a mild soap solution.
Roots emerge from the bottom of the pot
Are roots emerging from the bottom of the pot? That's a sign your Aglaonema needs to be repotted. Choose a slightly larger pot from our collection of pots for houseplants . This gives the roots more room to develop and prevents the plant from becoming overgrown.
Brown edges on leaves
Brown edges usually indicate air that is too dry or insufficient water. Increase the humidity with a humidifier or by grouping plants together. Also check the watering pattern; a consistent moisture level prevents the leaf edges from drying out.
