Aglaonema Saphire
Approx $28.24 USD
Care Tips:
1. Lighting: Provide your Aglaonema Sapphire with bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant foliage. It can tolerate
lower light conditions but avoid placing it in direct sunlight, as it may scorch the leaves. Finding a spot near a north or east-facing
window is ideal.
2. Temperature and Humidity: This plant thrives in average room temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Keep it away from
drafts and extreme temperature fluctuations. The Aglaonema Sapphire appreciates moderate humidity levels, so consider using a humidifier or
placing a tray of water near the plant to increase moisture.
3. Watering: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings, then thoroughly water your Aglaonema Sapphire. Avoid
overwatering, as it can lead to root rot. Ensure proper drainage by using well-draining soil and a pot with drainage holes. In winter,
reduce watering frequency as the plant's growth slows down.
4. Soil and Fertilization: Use a well-draining potting mix formulated for houseplants. A blend containing peat moss,
perlite, and vermiculite works well for the Aglaonema Sapphire. Fertilize every 2-4 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer)
with a balanced houseplant fertilizer. Follow the instructions on the fertilizer package for proper dosage.
5. Pruning and Maintenance: Trim any yellow or damaged leaves to maintain the plant's health and appearance.
Regularly dust the leaves with a soft cloth to keep them clean and free from dust buildup, which can hinder their ability to
photosynthesize effectively.
6. Propagation: The Aglaonema Sapphire can be propagated through stem cuttings. Take a healthy stem cutting with a few
leaves attached, dip the cut end in rooting hormone, and plant it in a moist potting mix. Provide warmth and indirect light to encourage
root development.
