Aglaonema 'Silver Queen'

Narrow silver-green leaves give Aglaonema 'Silver Queen' a slimmer, more upright look than many broader Chinese evergreens. The darker green marbling follows the margins, midrib area and irregular blade markings.

The plant grows from short stems that gradually form a clump. Young leaves stand more upright, while mature blades arch outward and older stems can lengthen into cane-like sections.

Key traits of Aglaonema 'Silver Queen'

  • Growth habit: Upright to arching clump with stems that lengthen slowly over time.
  • Leaf shape: Narrow lance-shaped blades with a smooth, lightly glossy surface.
  • Colour pattern: Silver-green leaves with darker green marbling and margins.
  • Mature behaviour: Older stems may become cane-like while side shoots add fullness.

How 'Silver Queen' changes as it matures

Aglaonema 'Silver Queen' develops slim leaves on upright leaf stalks, giving the plant a more vertical crown when young, followed by a softer arching outline as the blades lengthen.

Aglaonema belongs to Araceae and is native from north-eastern India to Papua New Guinea. The silver-green marbling across the narrow leaf blades is the main feature of this Chinese evergreen.

Mature indoor plants may flower, producing a pale central flower spike wrapped by a greenish-white sheath. Old flower stalks can be removed once they fade.

Care points for Aglaonema 'Silver Queen'

  • Light: Grow in bright indirect to medium light. Filtered brightness keeps the narrow leaves from stretching and reduces dull, weak new growth.
  • Watering: Water when the top 2–5 cm of mix has dried. Mature clumps need water spread across the whole pot surface.
  • Substrate: Use an airy houseplant mix with bark, perlite or pumice to keep oxygen around the roots.
  • Drainage: Let excess water leave the pot fully after each watering; when the plant is not making many new leaves, wet mix can sit around the roots for too long.
  • Temperature: Keep at 18–27 °C and away from cold draughts.
  • Humidity: Average indoor humidity is usually suitable; dry heated rooms may cause tip browning.
  • Feeding: Apply diluted fertiliser every 4–6 weeks during active growth and flush the pot occasionally.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots fill the pot or the clump becomes top-heavy.
  • Pruning: Remove yellowing old leaves at the base and shorten bare stems above nodes so new shoots can break lower on the stem.
  • Propagation: Divide crowded clumps or root stem cuttings with visible nodes.

Plant health clues

  • Brown sun marks: Shift the plant back from hot windows or intense grow lights.
  • Yellowing with soft leaf stalks: Check for cold, wet substrate and wait until the mix dries further; roots can rot if they stay wet and cold.
  • Dry brown tips: Review watering consistency, fertiliser concentration and dry indoor heat.
  • Bare canes: Cut mature stems above nodes so new shoots can break lower on the stem, and root healthy cane sections separately.

Safety in the home

Aglaonema 'Silver Queen' contains irritating calcium oxalate crystals. Ingestion can irritate the mouth, lips and throat, so place the plant beyond easy reach of pets and small children. Wear gloves or wash hands after cutting older stems.

The Most Clear and Accessible (Not to Mention Funny) Treatment of the Trinity I Have Ever Encountered
Format: Paperback
The Trinity may be the most difficult Doctrine of the Church to understand and it is even more difficult to explain clearly; yet it is also central and essential to the Christian Faith. This makes it very difficult for those of us in ministry who want to teach about the Nature of God with accuracy, clarity, and care. More often than not, discussions of God’s Triune nature involve analogies of water, apples, hats, and other such symbols that never seem to really help anyone’s understanding and serve only to muddy the theological waters. Stephen Bullivant’s concise, fair-minded, humorous, and incredibly accessible work is truly a breath of fresh air. It has brought much needed relief from bad analogies and incredible clarity to a difficult topic. I will even go so far as to say it has re-shaped both my thinking about and teaching of the Trinity. What I love most about this book is that I can recommend it to anyone. The clarity of thought with which Bullivant writes, and the ease with which he uses pop-culture and humor to illuminate complex ideas make this a rare book on theology that provides the reader with both the erudition of a scholar and the art a communicator. I have been teaching from this book at our church since I read it last Spring and I can attest from the feedback that I have gotten that it has been a game-changer on the topic of the Trinity for many people here. Quite a few have told me that the way Bullivant explains the Trinity has brought them clarity one this the Doctrine for the first time in their Christian experience. I cannot recommend this book highly enough for anyone in ministry that is looking for a way to communicate a very difficult theological topic with clarity, humor, humility, and care.

A Clear, Readable, and Necessary Contribution
Format: Paperback
This is a clear, readable, and necessary book. The Trinity is the central mystery of the Christian faith, but it can be difficult to articulate in a simple and coherent way. As one who regularly teaches the topic in the Catholic high school setting, I appreciated the very accessible approach that the author takes. Anyone who struggles with the basic meaning of the doctrine would benefit from this text, as would those who are tasked with explaining it to others. From the very first page of the book, the author presents the doctrine of the Trinity through three basic statements: 1. There is only one God. 2. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit is each God. 3. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are not the same. Besides a very good opening chapter on the ability to speak about God at all, the entire book is basically an unpacking of why the Church came to believe in these three statements and the problems (aka heresies) that arise when any one of the three is denied. Over the course of the book, the reader will become familiar with many of the key biblical texts underlying the doctrine of the Trinity and the early theologians who defended it. While this is not primarily a work of doctrinal history, the arguments are almost entirely based on the thought of these fourth and fifth century theologians. Two points are worth noting, though neither was a "deal breaker" for me: First, be ready for lots of references to popular culture. I was surprised to see mentions of everything from Wayne's World and Borat to the song Achy Breaky Heart and the Three Amigos. These are no doubt great examples from the author's experience, as university teacher, in connecting the subject matter to his student audience. But in almost every instance I found myself drawn away from the topic at hand and in some cases I was left pondering the usefulness of the gratuitous reference itself. Luckily, I got almost every single one--until a late reference to the British TV series Father Ted forced me to look it up on Google. Second, I'm not sure if this book is still in such an early printing that it hasn't been physically typeset yet, but my edition looked as though an inkjet printer produced it. In an age of Retina display screens, it was a bit odd being disappointed in the quality of actual printed text. Overall, I highly recommend the book. I've just ordered the author's previous book from Paulist Press and look forward to his future works.

This book is good if you wish to know the heresies of the Trinity. It does not cover the inner working relationships of the Trinity.

It doesn't have to be a mystery
Format: Paperback
The answer almost every Catholic including the clergy give regarding the Trinity is "its a mystery." Its not if you read Bullivant it is now a discussion and conversation about the Christian understanding of God. Now the person in the pew can help explain "the mystery" to the clergy who haven't read The Trinity. The author introduces the Trinity as "supreme simplicity" and then guides discussion through an adult presentation of a fundamental belief among Christians. The style is very conversational with wonderful and one could say fun examples. The author makes excellent use of scripture and the writings of the early Christian church before all the disputes and splits started. He does it all in about a 100 pages. Perfect for the curious, those wanting a real answer about the Trinity and for small study groups. Finally it is done with an ecumenical approach that allows Christians to dialogue together and with those with different or no faith tradition.
