Chinese Evergreen (Aglaonema) is one of the most adaptable and elegant tropical houseplants, celebrated for its lush foliage and resilience. Native to the rainforests and shaded tropical regions of Southeast Asia, it thrives beneath dense canopies where light is soft and humidity is high. Its leaves are its main attraction — broad, glossy, and often patterned with silvery, green, pink, or red tones depending on the variety. The Chinese Evergreen’s lush, layered look makes it a beautiful accent in homes, offices, and shaded interiors while also improving indoor air quality.
In its natural environment, this plant grows in low to medium filtered light, so it performs best indoors in bright, indirect light or even partial shade. An east-facing window offers the perfect morning light balance, while north-facing light keeps variegated varieties from fading. Avoid strong afternoon sun, which can scorch its delicate leaves. Chinese Evergreens prefer consistent moisture but not soggy soil — allow the top inch to dry between waterings — and moderate humidity (around 50–60%) for vibrant growth.
The Chinese Evergreen is often called the “set-it-and-forget-it” plant for good reason: it’s low-maintenance, forgiving, and tolerant of occasional neglect. This makes it an ideal choice for both beginners and busy plant lovers. Beyond being easy to care for, it symbolizes prosperity, balance, and protection in many Asian cultures, often kept near entryways or living spaces for good fortune. With its soft tropical charm and dependable growth, it brings lasting beauty and calm energy to any indoor setting.

My plants always arrive healthy and are proficiently shipped
My plant arrived damaged, soft, droopy, upon arrival with the weather protection. I watered the plant as it was dry and light, but made no difference. The top cutting was broken off when I opened the box. I emailed the shop about my issue, they blamed it on watering and never responded. I’m very disappointed and will not be shopping with this company again. Poor customer service and now I have a sad plant.
Good information for beginners, and good reminders for experienced plant parents.
