☀️ Light

Aglaonema Maria grows best in bright, indirect or filtered light. It can tolerate lower light conditions, but growth may become slower or leggier. Avoid direct, intense sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.

💧 Watering

Allow roughly the upper half of the potting mix to dry before watering again. Water thoroughly, then let excess water drain away. Avoid keeping the soil constantly wet, as this may lead to root rot. Plants in lower light usually need less frequent watering.

🪴 Soil

Use a well-draining indoor potting mix that retains some moisture while allowing good airflow around the roots. A quality houseplant mix amended with perlite can help improve drainage. Always use a pot with drainage holes.

🌡️ Temperature and Humidity

This tropical houseplant prefers warm indoor conditions, ideally around 65–75°F (18–24°C). Avoid cold drafts, chilly windowsills, and sudden temperature changes. Moderate to higher humidity is beneficial, but average indoor humidity is often manageable. A humidifier can help in especially dry rooms; regular misting is optional and does not reliably increase humidity for long.

🌿 Maintenance

Remove yellowing or damaged leaves with clean scissors to maintain a tidy appearance. During active growth, feed occasionally with a balanced houseplant fertilizer according to its label. Reduce feeding during slower growth periods.
