Costa Farms Aglaonema Chinese Evergreen Live Indoor Plant — 30" Tall, Silvery-Green Foliage, Low-Maintenance

This 30-inch Aglaonema from Costa Farms ships from our growers and arrives potted in a black grower’s pot, ready for you to place in your favorite planter. Known for its tolerance of a range of indoor light and humidity conditions, this variety shows attractive silvery leaves edged in deep green and grows slowly, so it keeps its shape without frequent pruning. Each plant is hand-selected by our growers, packaged with care, and inspected before shipment so you receive a healthy specimen. Note: delivery may be restricted to certain states; check availability at checkout.

How much light does this Chinese Evergreen need indoors?

Aglaonema thrives in medium or bright indirect light but is forgiving in lower-light spots. A few hours of gentle direct sun on the leaves is fine, but avoid prolonged harsh afternoon sun to prevent leaf scorch.

• Ideal: filtered morning light or bright indirect light;
• Acceptable: low light rooms that receive occasional brightness;
• Avoid: intense, direct midday sun for long periods;
• Placement tips: east- or north-facing windows with sheer curtains work well.

What watering and care schedule keeps it healthy?

This Aglaonema prefers the soil to dry slightly between waterings; it tolerates short periods without water, making it suitable for busy households. Water thoroughly until excess drains, then wait until the topsoil feels dry to the touch before watering again.

• Water when top 1–2 inches of soil are dry;
• Ensure pot drains freely to prevent standing water;
• Reduce watering in cooler months when growth slows;
• Wipe leaves occasionally to remove dust and encourage light absorption.

How big will this plant get and when should I repot?

The plant ships around 30 inches tall measured from the bottom of the grower’s pot and is a naturally slow grower, so it maintains a compact, manageable size. Repot every 1–2 years or when roots begin to circle the pot to refresh soil and give room for modest growth.

• Shipped size: approximately 30 inches tall from pot base to top;
• Growth habit: slow, upright clumping form;
• Repot: when roots outgrow the pot or soil becomes compacted;
• Use: well-draining potting mix and a slightly larger container when repotting.

Are there any handling or shipping cautions I should know?

We package each plant carefully to protect foliage and roots, but exposure to freezing temperatures can damage living plants in transit. If you expect cold weather at delivery, arrange for a warmer drop-off or bring the plant indoors immediately upon arrival.

• Shipped potted in a black grower’s pot ready for decorative planting;
• Keep indoors immediately after delivery in cold conditions;
• Inspect upon arrival and water only if soil is dry;
• Each plant is unique; individual leaf patterns and size may vary.

This Costa Farms Aglaonema is ideal for new plant owners, busy households, and anyone who wants a decorative, forgiving houseplant for shelves, tabletops, or the floor. It’s a good choice for offices, living rooms, and low-light corners where ease of care and attractive foliage are priorities. Because the plant ships from our growers, you’re getting a specimen selected for vigor and packaged to arrive ready to display.
