Description

Common name: Chinese Evergreen ‘Rose Red’

Latin name: Aglaonema ‘Rose Red’

Best position in the home: Thrives in bright, indirect light but is very tolerant of lower light conditions. The richer the light (without direct sun), the more vibrant the red colouring will be. Ideal for living rooms, bedrooms, and offices, including slightly shadier spots.

Water requirements: Allow the top few centimetres of soil to dry out between waterings. Water moderately and reduce frequency in winter. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot. Happy in average household humidity.

Home impact: With its striking red and green foliage, this plant adds a warm, colourful accent to any room. It helps create a calm indoor environment and is often associated with improving air quality in a general sense. Not pet-friendly, as it is toxic if ingested.

Potential height at full growth: Typically grows to around 30–60cm in height, with a similar spread.

How to look after it: Place in bright, indirect light for best colour, though it will tolerate lower light. Water when the top of the soil feels dry and ensure good drainage. Feed monthly during spring and summer with a balanced houseplant fertiliser. Keep in a warm room and avoid cold draughts. Repot every couple of years as it grows.

Beginner friendliness 5/5 

Practically Thrives on Neglect! Aglaonemas are famously low-maintenance and forgiving. They cope well with less-than-perfect conditions, making them ideal for beginners or busy plant owners.

This variety is particularly valued for its vibrant foliage. Yellowing leaves can indicate overwatering, while dull colouring may suggest it needs a bit more light.
