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 'Stripes'
Long green leaves banded with silvery-white lines give Aglaonema 'Stripes' a cleaner, more linear pattern than mottled Chinese evergreens. The pale bands follow the lateral veins, adding a clear striped effect as each new leaf opens.
The plant grows as an upright clump from short stems. As older leaves settle around the base, the long blades create a neat vertical pattern in the pot.
Striped leaf pattern
- Hybrid Aglaonema cultivar with clear striped leaf pattern
- Silvery-white bands following the lateral veins
- Long oval leaves that can reach around 35 cm on mature, well-rooted plants
- Upright clumping habit with leaves layered from the base upward
- Suited to filtered indoor light and warm, steady rooms
Hybrid background of Aglaonema 'Stripes'
Aglaonema 'Stripes' was released as a Florida foliage plant cultivar from a cross between Aglaonema 'Manila' and Aglaonema nitidum 'Curtisii'. The parentage helps explain the stronger linear pattern and long leaf shape.
Aglaonema is an Araceae genus native from north-eastern India to Papua New Guinea. In indoor pots, 'Stripes' becomes a medium-sized plant with long upright leaves and side shoots that keep the base full.
Care needs for Aglaonema 'Stripes'
- Light: Grow in medium to bright filtered light. Strong direct sun can roughen or bleach the silver bands.
- Watering: Water when the top 3–4 cm of mix has dried. Keep the root ball lightly moist during active growth.
- Substrate: Use a chunky, moisture-retentive mix with coco coir, bark and perlite or pumice.
- Drainage: Water thoroughly, then let the pot drain fully before it goes back into a decorative cover pot.
- Temperature: Keep at 18–26 °C with protection from cold glass and draughty entrances.
- Humidity: Moderate humidity helps long new leaves unfurl without sticking at the edges.
- Feeding: Feed monthly during active growth with diluted balanced fertiliser; reduce feeding when growth slows.
- Repotting: Move up one pot size when roots press against the pot wall or the plant dries unusually fast.
- Leaf care: Wipe the long leaves gently so the vein pattern stays clear.
- Propagation: Propagate by division or stem sections with visible nodes and healthy roots.
Condition cues
- Yellow leaves with soft stems: Check for saturated substrate, poor drainage or a cold root area.
- Crisp brown tips: Review watering pattern, fertiliser strength and mineral-heavy tap water.
- Bleached rough patches: Move the plant farther from direct sun, especially near south- or west-facing glass.
- Fine speckling or dull leaves: Inspect leaf undersides and leaf-stalk bases for mites.
Household safety
Aglaonema 'Stripes' contains irritating calcium oxalate crystals. Ingested leaves or stems can cause painful mouth irritation and swallowing discomfort. Place the plant where children and pets cannot reach it, and wash hands after handling cut stems.
Aglaonema 'Stripes' stands out for long leaves with clear silver bands instead of scattered mottling.
