Meet Aglaonema 'Red Army'—a compact Chinese evergreen with warm red-pink colour through the leaves. It brings colour without needing the fussy care of many collector plants, although brighter indirect light will keep the red tones much stronger.

  • The Formal Name: Aglaonema 'Red Army'
  • The Nickname: Red Army Chinese Evergreen
  • Roots: A cultivated Aglaonema, part of a tropical Asian genus famous for patterned, low-maintenance foliage.
  • Natural Vibe: Warm forest-floor foliage plant: filtered light, even watering and no cold draughts.

Care Guide
  • Care Guide:
  • Sunlight: Medium to bright indirect light is best. It tolerates lower light, but red colouring fades if it is kept too dark.
  • Best Room: Great for a bright office, living room shelf or warm hallway away from cold doors.
  • Snacks: Feed lightly monthly in spring and summer; too much feed can cause soft, leggy growth.
  • Tropical Feels: Average home humidity is usually fine, but extra humidity helps new leaves look cleaner.
  • Cosy Factor: Keep above 16°C, ideally 18–26°C. Avoid cold windowsills.
  • Thirst: Let the top few centimetres dry before watering. Do not keep it constantly wet.
  • Safety First: Not pet-safe – aroid foliage contains irritating calcium oxalate crystals, so keep away from pets and children who may chew leaves or stems.
  • The Bedding: Standard houseplant mix with added perlite for drainage works well.
  • Family Tree: Propagate by division or stem cuttings once the plant has multiple stems.
  • Space Needs: Compact and tidy; rotate occasionally for even colour and growth.
  • Speed: Slow to moderate, steady rather than dramatic.
  • Uninvited Guests: Mealybug and spider mite can hide around the leaf bases.
  • Moving Day: Repot only when comfortably root-filled; Aglaonema do not need constant upsizing.
  • Haircut: Remove old lower leaves and any tired stems at the base.
  • Fresh Air: Avoid chilly draughts; warm stable rooms suit it best.
  • Plant Lore: Aglaonema are popular because they give strong foliage colour while coping with normal indoor life better than many rarities.
