Aglaonema 'Crete'

Red-pink margins, green leaf centres and flushed petioles give Aglaonema 'Crete' a sharper outline than many pale Chinese evergreens. The colour follows the edge, midrib and stem line, so the plant shows red detail from the top and from the side.

This cultivar grows as a compact upright clump from a short base. The leaves sit close together when young, then angle outward as the petioles lengthen, giving even smaller plants a defined crown.

Crete red-margin traits

  • Green leaf centres framed by red to pink margins
  • Flushed petioles with colour visible below the leaf blades
  • Glossy oval to elliptic leaves with a slightly leathery feel
  • Self-heading growth from a compact basal crown
  • Warm, filtered-light position for firm petioles and fewer scorch marks on the red leaf edges

Red margins, petioles and genus background

Aglaonema 'Crete' carries its strongest colour along the leaf margins and petioles. Young leaves open from the centre with softer colour, then flatten and deepen as the blade matures.

The genus Aglaonema is associated with warm, shaded tropical habitats across Asia and New Guinea. 'Crete' is the cultivar name used for this red-edged Aglaonema selection.

Stable warmth keeps petioles firm, filtered light reduces scorch, and an aerated substrate keeps the crown base from softening.

Growing Aglaonema 'Crete' indoors

  • Light: Give medium to bright indirect light. Direct midday sun near hot glass can scorch the red leaf edges, while very low light can stretch the petioles.
  • Watering: Water when the upper 40–60% of the potting mix has dried. Keep the root zone lightly moist during active growth and drier when conditions are cool or dark.
  • Substrate: Use a loose, aerated houseplant mix with fine bark, coir or peat-free fibre, plus mineral drainage, so the crown base does not sit in stale wet substrate.
  • Drainage: A free-draining nursery pot keeps air moving around the compact basal crown.
  • Temperature: Aim for 18–24 °C indoors. Keep the plant away from cold glass, unheated rooms and cold draughts.
  • Humidity: At normal household humidity, most new leaves unfold without sticking. In very dry rooms, nearby plants or a humidifier can reduce crinkled new growth.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly while the plant is actively producing new leaves, using a diluted balanced fertiliser. Flush the pot occasionally to reduce salt build-up.
  • Pot choice: Keep the pot close to root size. A young 'Crete' in a deep oversized pot can stay wet at the base for too long.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots circle the pot or the mix compacts. Keep the crown at the same depth after repotting, as a buried crown base can stay wet and soften.
  • Pruning: Remove spent lower leaves cleanly at the base so damp leaf material stays clear of the crown.
  • Temporary outdoor placement: In warm, sheltered shade with nights above 16 °C, this plant can spend time outside. Bring it indoors again before cool nights return.
  • Propagation: Divide mature clumps with separate rooted shoots. Fresh divisions need warmth and light, even moisture while cut roots produce new tips.

Crete leaf and crown signals

  • Yellow base leaves: Check the bottom of the pot and the crown base. Several fading lower leaves can indicate wet mix or a cool root zone.
  • Brown patches on leaves: Review direct sun, cold exposure and water sitting on leaves in a cool room.
  • Soft petioles: Check root firmness and let the mix breathe again before watering. Firm petioles hold the red-edged leaves upright.
  • Dry leaf edges: Check watering gaps, fertiliser strength and warm airflow. Red margins show edge stress quickly.
  • Uneven crown: Rotate the pot regularly so new petioles do not all lean toward the same side.

Crete safety and removed foliage

Leaves, stems and sap of Aglaonema 'Crete' contain insoluble calcium oxalate crystals. If plant tissue is eaten, it can irritate the mouth, tongue and throat and may cause drooling or vomiting in pets. Keep removed leaves out of reach as well, and wash your hands after pruning.

Perfect Fit
Color: B-navy blue
I recently bought an iPad (A16) 11th Generation and needed a case for protection. I had a similar case to this one for another iPad that I owned in the past and was very pleased with it. I tried to put my new iPad into that case, but it didn’t really fit well, so I had to purchase a new one. I found this case on Amazon at a good price. I received it on the second day and it fit perfectly! It also has a slot to hold my Apple Pencil, which the other case did not have. So I am very pleased with it.

Cute! Didn’t last long for me
Color: A-Pink, Color: A-Pink
Very cute and comfortable! Love the folding tabs. Unfortunately, I’ve only had this case for around 6-7 months, and it’s already cracked and chipped. I also always carry it in a protective case (aside from this one; a computer sleeve) so i don’t think i was being rough with it at all. Still works fine, and should protect the ipad. i’m just sad it cracked so soon! I would’ve kept it for much longer had it not. I do however take it to school/work everyday, so it did commute with me.

Great quality and functional
Model: iPad 11th A16 2025/10th, Model: iPad 11th A16 2025/10th
Fantastic screen protector! Adheres flawlessly and is easy to install. Doesn’t interfere with screen functionality and doesn’t go cloudy or hazy with use. It fits perfectly on my iPad 11 and was an absolute bargain compared to other protectors that cost 3x as much and never stayed in place without bubbling. Color is crystal clear, you can’t tell it’s there and it is easy to clean too! I definitely recommend!
