How to care for an Aglaonema Green Sun

Watering Aglaonema Green Sun

The Aglaonema Green Sun prefers slightly moist soil but cannot tolerate waterlogging. Water the plant approximately once a week, allowing the top layer of soil to dry slightly between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot; read our tips in the blog post about what to do about root rot .

Light requirements of Aglaonema Green Sun

Aglaonema Green Sun thrives in partial to full shade. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can burn the leaves and cause yellow patches. A northeast- or west-facing window with filtered light is ideal; compare this to the bright location of a Monstera Deliciosa for a cozy urban jungle effect.

Is the Aglaonema Green Sun poisonous?

Like many Aglaonema varieties, Green Sun is mildly poisonous if ingested. Keep pets and small children away from the leaves, or use a plant hanger to elevate the plant. In case of contact with skin or mucous membranes, rinse the area immediately with water to prevent irritation.

Common problems

Yellow leaves

Yellow discoloration is often caused by insufficient water or excessive light. Check the soil moisture and adjust the location to a spot with indirect light. Remove dead or yellow leaves to encourage the plant to produce new shoots.

Plant drips

Droplets on the leaves can indicate excessive humidity or overwatering. Limit watering and ensure adequate ventilation. Consider using a jungle mist spray to increase humidity more evenly without puddles around the pot.

Plagues

Spider mites and bugs sometimes occur on Aglaonema. Inspect the undersides of the leaves weekly. Treat an infestation with a mild, herbal spray or use sticky traps to catch fungus gnats .

Roots growing out of the pot

When you see roots emerging from the drainage holes, the Aglaonema Green Sun needs a larger pot. Repot the plant in a pot one size larger and use airy potting soil, such as our potting soil for aroids . This gives the root structure room to grow.

Brown edges on leaves

Brown leaf edges are caused by excessively dry air or hard water. Reduce the distance to the radiator and use filtered or rainwater. Still struggling? Consult our lifelong help for all your plant questions for personalized advice.
