Spring Snow Chinese Evergreen

Spring Snow Chinese Evergreen (Aglaonema 'Spring Snow')

Spring Snow Chinese Evergreen is a tropical houseplant with broad leaves heavily marbled in creamy white and soft green. Its upright, clumping habit thrives in bright to medium indoor light, bringing a clean, modern look to living rooms, offices, and shaded corners.

Distinctive Features

High-contrast white variegation remains attractive in lower light, while sturdy stems and thick leaves provide a polished, architectural presence year round.

Growing Conditions

• Sun Exposure: Bright, indirect to medium light, avoiding direct afternoon sun to prevent scorch.
• Soil: Use a well drained indoor potting mix with added perlite for aeration.
• Water: Water when the top inch of mix is dry, then drain thoroughly and never leave the pot sitting in water.
• USDA Hardiness Zones: 10 to 12 outdoors; grow as a houseplant elsewhere.
• Mature Size: 1.5 to 3 ft tall and 1.5 to 2.5 ft wide.

Ideal Uses

• Focal Point: Crisp white variegation draws the eye on consoles, plant stands, and shelves.
• Indoor Decor: Adds year-round brightness to living spaces and offices.
• Low-Light Rooms: Performs reliably in bedrooms, hallways, and work areas.
• Containers: Excels in decorative pots with drainage.
• Grouping: Pairs well with ferns and snake plants for layered foliage displays.

Low Maintenance Care

• Watering: Allow partial dry-down between waterings and reduce frequency in winter.
• Pruning: Remove yellowing leaves at the base and wipe foliage to keep it dust free.
• Fertilizing: Feed monthly in spring and summer with a balanced houseplant fertilizer at half strength.
• Mulching: Top-dress with sterile pebbles or decorative gravel to limit fungus gnats and retain surface moisture.
• Notes: Keep above 60 F and protect from cold drafts and heat vents.
