Aglaonema ‘Chanel’ — elegant tropical evergreen prized for its lush, patterned foliage and calm, sculptural presence. Known as a Chinese Evergreen, this compact houseplant showcases broad, glossy leaves that feature soft green tones with subtle silver or cream marbling, adding quiet sophistication to any indoor space.

Native to the shaded understories of Southeast Asian rainforests, Aglaonema ‘Chanel’ thrives in warm, humid environments where light is filtered through the canopy. Indoors, it maintains its beauty with minimal effort, making it ideal for both beginners and experienced collectors. Mature plants typically reach 12–18 inches tall with a naturally bushy form that suits tabletops, low stands, or interior corners.

Provide bright, indirect light for best leaf color. It adapts to medium and even lower light levels, though growth may slow and variegation may fade slightly. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.

Water when the top 2 inches of soil feel dry, allowing excess water to drain freely to prevent root rot. During cooler months, reduce watering frequency. Use a well-draining potting mix and a container with drainage holes to maintain healthy roots.

Maintain temperatures between 65°F and 75°F (18–24°C) and protect from drafts or cold air below 60°F (16°C). The plant enjoys moderate to high humidity, which can be enhanced by misting, using a humidifier, or placing it on a pebble tray with water. Feed monthly in spring and summer with a diluted, balanced fertilizer to support steady growth.

Regularly wipe the leaves to remove dust and help the plant breathe. Check for common pests like spider mites or mealybugs. Aglaonema ‘Chanel’ is mildly toxic to humans and pets if ingested, so keep it out of reach of children and animals.

This graceful, low-maintenance plant from Megagarden adds a serene, natural accent to homes and offices, thriving in spaces where other plants might struggle.
