Chinese Evergreen - Aglaonema 'Silver moon' 
 
The Chinese Evergreen 'Silver Moon' is an unusual plant which boasts lush and beautifully variegated foliage. As reflected in its delicate dappled leaf patterns, this evergreen can be found nestled in the shade of larger plant life in the tropics and sub tropics of South East Asia.
 
The Silver Moon is easy to care for and thrives in most light conditions, particularly in lightly shaded spots out of direct sunlight. Be sure to keep the soil moist in summer and to mist and dust the leaves regularly to keep them looking their best. In return, the Silver Moon is found to help humidify and improve air quality. With a long life-span, it will grow taller over time and perhaps transform into the perfect floor plant for your home.
 
 LIGHT
By nature, Aglaonemas do best in well-lit locations such as a window sill with eastern light exposure. Bright, but indirect sunlight is optimal. Be careful to not put the Silver Bay in full sun because, in many cases, the leaves will burn. If you have less than optimal lighting available, don’t worry! Your Silver Bay Aglaonema will tolerate and even thrive, in low light areas. In most cases, artificial light found in windowless offices proves enough for this tough plant.
 
 WATER
Water your Aglaonema when the top 2cm of the soil is dry. Water until liquid flows through the drainage hole at the bottom of the pot and discard any water that has accumulated in the saucer.
 
 HUMIDITY
The Silver Bay Aglaonema can survive in a low humidity environment but will thrive with a higher humidity level. Mist the leaves regularly to raise the humidity.
 
TEMPERATURE
Prefer temperatures in the 60’s and 70’s. Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.
 
FEEDING
Feed once a month during the spring and summer with a liquid fertilizer for indoor plants.
 
 ADDITIONAL CARE
A common problem with Aglaonema is called ‘tipping’ when the tips of the leaves dry out and turn brown. This can be caused by a variety of issues like overwatering, too much fertilizer, etc. The most common cause is tap water, which contains salts, chlorine, and fluoride. If you do not have a filtration system, leaving the tap water in an open container overnight before watering can help remove some of the chlorine and fluoride.
