Aglaonema pictum 'Bicolor' is a highly sought-after cultivar known for its unique two-toned camouflage pattern.
Each leaf mixes silver with green areas in irregular, natural patterns, without the deep green tones found in 'Tricolor'. Compact, slow growing and visually dramatic, this plant is a must for collectors. Perfect for terrariums!
The leaves grow to 12-20 centimetres long, lanceolate with silvery variegation. Unlike the more common Tricolor variety, 'Bicolor' offers a more subtle but equally striking visual effect. Leaf shape is also variable and the leaves are usually round to ovate.
Botanical description
The genus name Aglaonema comes from Greek words meaning "bright thread," while "pictum" refers to its painted leaf appearance. The name 'Bicolor' highlights its two-tone variegation.
Aglaonema pictum is native to Sumatra and the Nias Islands. It is a medium-sized plant, up to about 40 centimeters tall with 15-20 centimeters long leaves. The species is very variable in its leaf pattern.
There are specimens with single-colored green leaves, those with two-colored leaves (light green/dark green) and tricolor specimens. Aglaonema pictum 'Tricolor' is, as the name suggests, a tricolor form with a dark green base, light green areas along the midrib and individual silvery spots.
'Bicolor' is derived from the genetic lineage of Aglaonema pictum , a species adapted to the humid understory of Southeast Asian rainforests. These plants thrive in environments with filtered light, warm temperatures, and consistently high humidity, conditions to replicate indoors for success.
Care
Place in a bright location with indirect light. Avoid direct sun and shade. Bright, indirect light is essential for vivid contrast. Low light is not tolerated and causes faded patterns.
Keep the substrate slightly moist. Let the top 2 centimeters dry between waterings. Overwatering usually causes yellowing leaves.
Use an airy, well-drained mix enriched with perlite and orchid bark. Repot every 2-3 years and choose tighter pots to prevent root rot. Low humidity often causes brown tips. Keep temperatures between 20-28°C. Keep away from cold drafts.
Fertilize approximately every 4-6 weeks during active growth with a balanced liquid fertilizer.
The plant grows slowly, developing a few new leaves per season. It matures to 40-60 centimeters indoors.
Propagate by division or stem cuttings. Best rooted in moist substrate or semi-hydro system. Buy Aglaonema pictum 'bicolor' online!
