TropicalplantsFL Aglaonema Cutlass

This variety is quite adaptable, preferring bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant variegation. While it can tolerate lower light conditions, you may notice slower growth and less defined silver patterns if it is kept in a dim corner for too long.

The best approach is to check the soil moisture rather than sticking to a strict schedule. Allow the top 50-75% of the soil to dry out completely before watering again; if you are unsure, wait an extra day, as these plants prefer to be slightly on the drier side.

While the Aglaonema Cutlass prefers moderate to high humidity, it is generally forgiving in average household conditions. If your home is particularly dry, especially in winter, placing it on a pebble tray or grouping it with other plants can help boost the ambient moisture.

Yes, drainage is key for this plant. It thrives in a well-draining potting mix that includes peat moss and perlite, which prevents the roots from sitting in excess water and helps avoid root rot.

Keep your Aglaonema in a room that stays between 65-75°F. It is sensitive to cold drafts and sudden temperature drops, so try to keep it away from drafty windows, doors, or direct heating and cooling vents.
