Aglaonema 'Lucida-vireo' care

Among the quieter members of the genus, Aglaonema 'Lucida-vireo' forms a slow climber and settles quickly indoors.

Give it bright indirect light; leaf colour fades noticeably in darker spots. Water weekly in summer and fortnightly in winter; the fastest way to lose one is a saucer left full.

Aim for average room humidity and use standard mix cut with a third perlite — roots here want air as much as water. Under good conditions it may flower indoors, though the foliage is the point.
