Care Tips:

• Light: Aglaonema Crete thrives in well-lit conditions with bright, indirect light. While Chinese Evergreens are known for tolerating lower light, the vibrant variegation on this 'Crete' variety will be best maintained with good indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight which can scorch its beautiful leaves.
• Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but never waterlogged. It’s best to allow the top inch or two of soil to dry out slightly between waterings, then water thoroughly. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot. Reduce watering frequency in the cooler, darker months.
• Humidity: This plant appreciates higher humidity, similar to its native tropical environment. While it tolerates average household humidity, consider regular misting, using a pebble tray, or placing it near a humidifier to keep it looking its best.
• Temperature: Happy in average room temperatures, ideally between 18-24°C (64-75°F). Protect your Aglaonema from cold draughts and sudden temperature fluctuations.
• Soil: Plant in a well-draining, rich potting mix that retains some moisture.
• Fertilising: Feed with a balanced liquid fertiliser once a month during the active growing season (spring and summer). Hold back on feeding in autumn and winter.
