Aglaonema Silverado - Flowers and Foliage
Aglaonemas are some of the best plants for use as house plants. They are both durable, look great, easy to care for and come in a variety of leaf shapes and looks.
One of the newer “Chinese evergreens” to hit the market in recent years is Aglaonema ‘Silverado’. It’s broad leaves make for an almost “dieffebachia” like look. The glossy leaves make cleaning easy and fill out the planters well.
You’ll notice in the ‘Silverado’ picture the flowers. Now don’t expect to be pollinating the plants and growing these from seeds. In fact, I’d recommend if your Aglaonema flowers to cut them off! The flowers just take energy for the plant. Very often you’ll find the new leaves flowering will be smaller in size.
Aglaonemas also are great for “showing off” planters, containers and other pottery.
