Aglaonema Silver Queen Plant

Aglaonema silver queen has attractive, silvery-green, lance-shaped leaves. The marbled darker green color allows this Chinese Evergreen to tolerate some degree of shade. The leaves tend to grow in an upright manner.

Chinese Evergreens are on NASA’s list of air-purifying plants. They are proven to remove Benzene and Formaldehyde toxins present in home environments and help reduce the irritant side effects on humans.

It is a popular variety, often found in design schemes, either used as a feature plant or displayed with a complimentary mix of other Chinese Evergreens.

Here some care tips:

1. Light: Aglaonema Silver Queen plants prefer bright, indirect light. They can tolerate lower light conditions, but too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves. Place your plant near a window with filtered light or in a well-lit room.
2. Watering: Water your Aglaonema Silver Queen when the top inch of soil feels dry. Avoid overwatering, as this plant is susceptible to root rot. Ensure proper drainage and allow excess water to drain away. It’s better to slightly underwater than overwater.
3. Humidity: Aglaonema Silver Queen plants prefer moderate to high humidity. You can increase humidity by misting the leaves with water or placing a tray filled with water and pebbles near the plant. This helps create a humid microclimate around the plant.
4. Temperature: These plants thrive in average room temperatures ranging from 65-85°F (18-29°C). Avoid exposing them to drafts or extreme temperature fluctuations.
5. Soil: Use well-draining potting soil for your Aglaonema Silver Queen. A mixture of peat moss, perlite, and sand works well. Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent waterlogged soil.
