How to read these values
These care values are quick reference points for indoor growing. Use them as a guide, then adjust for pot size, substrate, temperature and how quickly the substrate dries.
For more detail, read the full product description or visit our Plant Care Guides.
- Light: level and approximate lux at leaf level.
- Watering: “% dry” shows how far the substrate should dry before watering again.
- Substrate: structure, drainage, moisture retention, base material and particle size.
- Temperature: “Ideal” shows the preferred range; “Avoid below” marks the cold-stress threshold.
- Humidity: target range; steady conditions usually matter more than exact numbers.
- Growth habit: how the plant grows, such as upright, climbing, trailing, clumping or rosette-forming.
- Support: whether a stake, pole or trellis is needed, optional or unnecessary.
- Growth speed: expected pace under suitable indoor conditions; use as a guide, not a promise.
- Max size indoors: realistic long-term indoor size under good conditions.
- Toxicity & safety: irritation, toxicity or physical hazards such as spines or bristles.
- Origin & habitat: native range, hybrid background or typical habitat where relevant.
- Outdoor growing: when a potted indoor plant can be placed outside and what outdoor protection it needs.
Aglaonema 'Emerald Stone'
Aglaonema 'Emerald Stone' is a marbled Chinese evergreen with upright clumping growth. Broad leaves sit in green and silver-green tones, with patterning spread across the blade.
New leaves rise from the centre and layer over older growth as the plant fills its pot. Upright stems and petioles keep the plant compact, while darker and lighter areas create a marbled blade surface.
Aglaonema 'Emerald Stone' green-silver marbling
- Leaf colour: The foliage sits around green, silver-green and paler green tones.
- Pattern: Green and silver-green marbling spreads across the leaf surface.
- Leaf form: Broad lanceolate to elliptic leaves sit on upright petioles.
- Midrib: A visible central vein runs through the marbled blade.
- Habit: Upright stems and petioles keep the plant steady in a container.
- Pot behaviour: The clump becomes denser from the centre as new leaves emerge.
Aglaonema 'Emerald Stone' container structure
Aglaonema 'Emerald Stone' grows as a central clump, with fresh leaves rising upward from short stems. The pot should leave enough room for petioles to open without crowding the leaf edges.
Pale marbling can brown under harsh sun, while yellowing leaves or soft stems can point to wet-root stress. Warm, filtered light and an airy substrate reduce the risk of scorched sections and heavy, airless mix around the roots.
Aglaonema 'Emerald Stone' care indoors
- Light: Keep it in filtered indirect light. Direct sun can scorch pale marbled sections.
- Water: Let the top layer of the mix begin to dry before watering again.
- Substrate: Choose an airy mix that holds light moisture while allowing oxygen around the roots.
- Temperature: Warm, stable indoor conditions are important. Cold wet roots can quickly cause damage.
- Humidity: Moderate humidity reduces dry edges as new leaves expand.
- Pot choice: Use a pot close to the root-ball size so excess wet mix does not sit around the clump.
Aglaonema 'Emerald Stone' common stress signs
- Yellow lower leaves: Often linked to substrate that remains wet for too long.
- Soft stems: A cold or saturated root zone can weaken the plant at the base.
- Scorched marbling: Pale green and silver-green areas can brown under direct sun.
- Brown tips: Dry air, salts in the substrate or uneven watering can mark the leaf ends.
- Weak new growth: Very low light can produce smaller leaves and longer petioles.
Aglaonema 'Emerald Stone' safety
Aglaonema 'Emerald Stone' contains irritating calcium oxalate crystals. Keep the plant out of reach of pets and children, and avoid contact with sap from cut or damaged tissue.
Aglaonema 'Emerald Stone' botanical note
