Care for Aglaonema Jubilee
House Plants Flowers
One of the most used indoor house plants is the Aglaonema plant. Also known as Chinese evergreen, the Aglaonema Jubilee Petite plant is easy to care for and can be maintained at the lower light levels often found in the home or office environment.
New varieties of this plant are introduced quite frequently. Sometimes these new varieties of Aglaonema plant are healthy and robust and sometimes they develop problems and production is ended. There are quite a few varieties of Aglaonema used in interior landscaping but not all are available at the local garden center.
The most common varieties of Aglaonema plant are the Aglaonema 'Emerald Beauty', also called 'Maria', Aglaonema 'Silver Queen' and the Aglaonema 'Silver Bay'. They have a bush-like or clumping growth and, depending on the pot size, can be from 8 inches to 4 feet tall.
Almost all varieties of Aglaonema are variegated to some extent. Variegated plants may need higher light levels 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.
Plants Flowers & Pets
Over the years, I have had many animals and plants in the same house and have not had too many problems. I always make my best effort to keep houseplants out of the reach of pets. That can be difficult, especially with cats, as they seem to be able to get just about anywhere they please! Being an animal lover, as many people are, I thought it would be helpful to add a link for those with questions about pets and houseplants, as I have received a few emails with questions on the subject. Do not allow pets to eat your indoor houseplants or your outdoor plants. Questions about plants and pet safety?

Aglaonema Jubilee Petite Plant Care
How to Water
If you place your Aglaonema Jubilee Petite in high light, you can allow the potting mix to dry down 1/2 to 3/4 of the way out before watering thoroughly. In a lower light situation, allow soil to dry almost completely between waterings. Please read the section on watering indoor house plants for more on the most important part of your plant care.

Other Care Tips
Aglaonema is not a cold tolerant house plant. Temperatures should remain above 60℉ to avoid permanent damage to the foliage of your Aglaonema Jubilee Petite house plant.
The Aglaonema plant is a great houseplant for just about any location except full sun. Full sun, especially through glass, can scorch the exposed leaves. Aglaonema Jubilee Petite plants will survive in low light but will become thin and leggy. To keep your Aglaonema Jubilee Petite plant looking as good as possible, try to provide bright, diffused natural light or some artificial fluorescent light. Aglaonema plant will do quite well with just artificial lighting. For this reason it is good for use in professional office spaces.
To help keep your Aglaonema Jubilee Petite plant full and bushy, remove some of the new leaves as they appear. Do this by firmly grasping the stem the new leaf grows from and hold the new leaf near its base and gently pull. It should come out entirely and this is preferred. Do not use scissors. Leaves, stems etc. should be removed completely with no "stump" left behind. Wounds on a plant allow for entry of disease and can attract insects. Remove flowers or bracts in the same way.

There are a few problems you may encounter with this plant. Aglaonema is prone to stem rot and root rot if over-watered. This is especially true if your Aglaonema plant is in low light. The light your plant receives is the biggest factor in determining the watering of your indoor plants.
Mealy bugs are one of the insect problems that you may have with Aglaonema. 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. Here is a picture of mealy bugs.
Normally they are found in hidden areas, undersides of the leaves or in leaf axils. They also excrete a sticky substance called honeydew. Keep a watchful eye out for this pest, especially when you first bring a new plant home.
It is a good idea to quarantine any new additions to your indoor house plant family for a few weeks just to be sure there are not any insects that were not noticed at first. Wash down your new indoor house plant with a mixture of water and mild dish detergent. 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 basic houseplant care.
