CARE

Light: Provide medium to bright indirect light to maintain strong growth and attractive variegation. Brighter indirect light can help preserve the lighter coloration in the leaves. Avoid prolonged harsh direct sunlight, which can scorch the foliage.

Water: Water thoroughly when the upper portion of the potting mix begins to dry, then allow excess water to drain freely. Avoid keeping the roots constantly saturated, as overly wet soil can lead to root problems.

Humidity: Average household humidity is generally suitable. Moderate humidity can help support healthy foliage, especially in dry indoor environments.

Soil: Use a loose, well-draining potting mix that retains some moisture while allowing excess water to escape. A quality indoor plant mix amended with perlite, bark, or other aeration materials works well.

Temperature: Prefers warm indoor temperatures around 65–85°F. Protect the plant from cold drafts and prolonged exposure to temperatures below about 55°F.

Fertilizer: Feed lightly with a balanced fertilizer during periods of active growth. Reduce feeding during cooler months when growth slows.

GROWTH & HABIT

Aglaonema ‘Spring Snow’ grows in an upright, clumping form with broad leaves emerging densely from the base of the plant. Its foliage is heavily patterned with pale green and creamy white speckling over darker green, giving the plant a bright, frosted appearance. As it matures, it develops into a fuller specimen while maintaining a compact shape that works especially well for indoor growing.

PET SAFETY

Pet Safety: Aglaonema contains calcium oxalate crystals and is toxic if ingested by cats and dogs. Keep this plant out of reach of pets and children.
