Aglaonema 'Cocogreen' is a new cultivar of the Chinese evergreen or Aglaonema, renowned for its striking foliage. The leaves are oval shaped, exhibiting a rich green hue with subtle variegation patterns that can include shades of cream, pink and red.
Native to:
Aglaonema species are native to the tropical and subtropical regions of Southeast Asia and New Guinea, where they thrive in humid, shaded forest understories.
Water:
Maintain moderately moist soil by allowing the top third of the potting mix to dry out between waterings. Reduce watering frequency during the winter months when plant growth typically slows. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure the pot has adequate drainage.
Light:
Aglaonema 'Cocogreen' prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves. Variegated varieties may require slightly more light to maintain their leaf patterns.
Humidity:
Thrives in moderate to high humidity levels. If the indoor environment is dry, consider increasing humidity by placing the plant on a pebble tray filled with water or using a humidifier.
Temperature:
Prefers temperatures between 18°C and 27°C. Protect the plant from cold drafts and avoid exposure to temperatures below 13°C, as cold conditions can cause leaf damage.
