PLANT NERD TIPS: If you have a variegated Aglaonema variety, the more indirect light you give your plant the brighter the colors (variegation) will be.
Be sure not to overwater- Aglaonema can be sensitive to overwatering and are prone to root rot. If you notice yellow leaves or mushy stems, cut back on the amount of water you are giving your plant.
