⚘ How This Website Started ⚘
Hi Plant and Flower People!
I started this website in 2012 while helping my younger brother through a fight with terminal cancer. Between shopping, cleaning, cooking, laundry, doctor/hospital visits, and other tasks to help him, I taught myself HTML/CSS and other skills used in creating a website. My brother had a very successful stock photography website himself and his advice to me was to make a website about something you know.
I had left a job in the interior landscape industry in 2012 (I have worked in the interior landscape industry since 1986) to go across the country to help him out. So that became the subject of this website, indoor house plant and flower care.
It costs money for hosting service, domain fees, etc. to keep websites running. That is why I have third party ads/Amazon products and other affiliate links on webpages. Please use them if they are helpful to you as I earn commissions/ad revenue through them and they help pay costs for hosting, domain name, etc.
If you need some help with the general care of your indoor plants and flowers, read about basic houseplant care. You can also email houseplant care questions or requests for help identifying your mysterious indoor plant!
Please also consider supporting this website with a donation, if you can. Any help is appreciated. Hope you find some helpful information here. Thank you and read on Plant People!

Watering Aglaonema Emerald Holiday - If you place your Aglaonema Emerald Holiday in high light, you can allow the potting mix to dry approximately three-fourths of the way out before watering thoroughly. In a lower light situation, you can allow soil to dry completely between waterings. Please read the section on watering for more on the most important part of your plant care.

Other Care Tips
Almost all Aglaonema are variegated to some extent. Keep in mind that the variegated types need more light than those with less variegation. Typically, the lighter the color of a plant, the higher the light levels it needs to maintain its color and variegation.
Aglaonema "Emerald Holiday" is a great plant for just about any location except full sun. Full sun, especially through glass, can burn or scorch the leaves of a plant.

Aglaonema "Emerald Holiday" does well under artificial fluorescent light also. That makes this attractive, easy care plant ideal for use in professional office space.
Keep in Aglaonema "Emerald Holiday" in average home temperatures and let the soil dry almost completely before watering. Temperatures for Aglaonema "Emerald Holiday" should not be below 60°F. They are not cold tolerant plants.

Problems with Aglaonema "Emerald Holiday" should be few. They are prone to stem and root rot if the soil is kept overly wet or soggy. Aglaonema "Emerald Holiday" will become leggy and thin if kept in low light for extended periods of time as will any indoor house plant.
Mealy bugs are one of the most common insect problems that you may have with Aglaonema "Emerald Holiday". An oval shaped, somewhat flattened body and six legs distinguish this insect, although they can appear to have more legs because of their "antennae" and "tails". They also have a fringe around the body. A waxy, protective substance covers the body of adults and egg sacs giving them a cottony appearance.
Mealy bugs excrete a sticky substance called honeydew. You may see or feel it on the leaves. They normally are found in hidden areas, the undersides of the leaves or in leaf axils. Keep an eye out for these pest, especially when you first bring a new plant home.
Quarantine any new additions to your indoor house plant family for a few weeks just to be sure there are not any insects or diseases that were not noticed at first. Wash down your new indoor house plant with a mixture of water and mild dish detergent to remove and discourage any insects. I like to add a few drops of Eucalyptus essential oil or Orange essential oil to my house plant cleaning solution.
Apply to top and lower leaf and stem surfaces of your house plants, being careful not to saturate the soil. You can clean by hand or use a spray bottle to apply your house plant cleaning solution. I use a sponge moistened with my cleaning solution to gently wipe the top and lower leaf surfaces. Cleaning of your house plants should be a regular part of your house plant care.
Never apply anything to the foliage of your plant while it is in the sun or when the soil is dry. Water first and move to a shady location. I hope this indoor, house plant care information has been helpful in keeping your Aglaonema "Emerald Holiday" plant looking good and that all of your flowers and plants are healthy and growing.
