Aglaonema Salmon Fantasy

Aglaonema ‘Salmon Fantasy’ is a colourful Chinese evergreen, grown for its beautifully patterned foliage with soft salmon-pink, green and silvery tones. Aglaonemas originate from the tropical and subtropical forests of Southeast Asia, where they grow beneath the forest canopy. She’s a lovely choice for adding a splash of colour to a room without needing lots of direct sunlight.

☀️ Light
Bright, indirect light is ideal, although she’ll tolerate lower light levels. Keep her away from strong direct sunlight, which can scorch or fade her leaves. Good indirect light will help maintain her colourful foliage.

💧 Watering
Allow the top couple of inches of compost to dry before watering. Water thoroughly, allowing excess water to drain away, and avoid leaving her sitting in water. Reduce watering during autumn and winter when growth slows.

🌡️ Temperature & Humidity
Enjoys a warm spot between 18-27°C. Average household humidity is usually fine, although she’ll appreciate a little extra humidity. Keep away from cold draughts and sudden temperature changes.

🪴 Potting
Use a well-draining houseplant compost. A mix containing perlite will help prevent the roots from sitting in soggy soil.

✂️ Pruning
Remove yellowing or damaged leaves at the base of their stems using clean scissors. This keeps the plant looking tidy and allows new growth to take centre stage.

🌿 Growing Tips
Rotate occasionally to encourage even growth. Aglaonemas are generally slow to moderate growers, so don't worry if she takes her time putting out new leaves.

🐾 Pet Friendly
Not pet friendly. Aglaonemas contain calcium oxalate crystals and are toxic to cats and dogs if eaten.
