Description: The Aglaonema Firecracker, also known as Aglaonema Siam Aurora, is a striking houseplant known for its vibrant red and green foliage. This tropical perennial features lush, bushy growth with leaves that display a beautiful combination of deep green centers and bright red margins, adding a splash of color to any indoor setting. Mature plants typically reach a height and width of 1 to 3 feet, making them an ideal choice for tabletops or floor displays. The Aglaonema Firecracker is not only visually stunning but also easy to care for, making it a perfect choice for both novice and experienced plant enthusiasts. Its ability to thrive in low-light conditions makes it an excellent addition to offices and homes with limited natural light. Moreover, this plant adds a touch of tropical elegance and enhances indoor air quality by filtering toxins.Aglaonema Firecracker thrives in medium to bright indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves and cause the vibrant colors to fade. For an optimal display, place your Aglaonema Firecracker in a bright, indirect light spot and maintain consistent watering and humidity levels.Use the "drench and dry" method: water thoroughly when the top 2-3 inches of soil are dry. In summer, this typically means watering every week or two; in winter, less frequent watering is needed, approximately every three weeks. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure the soil is well-draining and never soggy.Ideal temperatures range from 65°F to 76°F (18°C – 24°C), but the plant can tolerate temperatures up to 85°F (29°C). Aglaonema prefers high humidity, similar to its native tropical environment. To maintain humidity, you can mist the plant occasionally or place it on a tray with pebbles and water.Plant in a well-draining potting mix, preferably one that includes perlite or peat moss to enhance drainage and aeration. Minimal pruning is needed. Remove any yellow or dead leaves by cutting them at the base near the soil. Pruning helps maintain the plant’s aesthetic and promotes healthier growth.Repot every two to three years in spring using fresh potting soil. Choose a pot that is one or two sizes larger to give the roots room to grow. Aglaonema can be propagated through division. During repotting, gently separate sections of the root ball that have at least two to three leaves. Replant the divided sections in new pots.
