Aglaonema is a genus of about 40 species of foliage plants in the family Araceae, native to the tropical southeastern Asia southern China regions. They are sometimes called “Chinese Evergreens.

1. This variety shown left is the colorful red cultivar but also low light example of an interior office plant. This “Sparking Sarah” solves the problem of satisfying office clients low light environmental conditions and still needing color not just dark green foliage.
2. They are tropical plants growing to 20-150 cm in height. The leaves are alternate on the stems, lanceolate to narrowly ovate, dark to medium green, 10-45 cm long and 4-16 cm broad, depending on the species. The flowers are relatively inconspicuous, white or greenish-white spathes that can give way to red berries.

3. Warning, the sap of this plant is poisonous to health. It causes skin irritation. If ingested, the sap causes irritation of the mouth, lips, throat and tongue.


4. They are popular indoor office plants for office interiors in Wakefield, MA and in shopping malls within the Boston area because they are among the easiest green plants to grow. Numerous cultivars have been selected, including plants with variegated leaves. They tolerate a wide range of light, as well as neglect, and are relatively resistant to pests. Aglaonema flourish for years.

They prefer indirect light and partial shade. They do best in shadow-less light, such as a north window. They prefer heavy soil, which should be kept moist but not soggy. They do not tolerate the cold; they should not be exposed to temperatures below 10°C (50°F), with optimal growing conditions between 20°C (68°F) and 30°C (86°F). High air humidity is also important.
