šŸ’Ø Humidity

Aglaonema 'Marble Galaxy' doesn’t require additional humidity. Plants absorb most water through their root system rather than their leaves, so the best way to provide humidity for your plants is through watering the soil.


🪓 Soil

Aglaonema 'Marble Galaxy' does best in well-draining soil. A good soil will contain lots of organic matter such as coco coir as well as perlite or vermiculite to help with drainage. Adding a handful of perlite to regular store-bought potting soil should do the trick!


šŸ’© Fertilizer

Aglaonema 'Marble Galaxy' should be repotted after it doubles in size or once a year, whichever comes first. Fresh potting soil has all the nutrients your plant needs, so as long as it’s refreshed yearly, you shouldn’t need to use fertilizer. Remember, plants get their energy from sunlight, not fertilizer!


ā„ļø Dormancy

It’s common for Aglaonema 'Marble Galaxy' to go dormant in the wintertime and you may notice their growth slow down. Waterings should be spaced out more during this time.


šŸŒŽ Native Region

Aglaonema 'Marble Galaxy' is native to tropical Asia and New Guinea.


🧐 Troubleshooting

When troubleshooting a sad-looking houseplant, start by checking for signs of distress in its leaves, such as yellowing, browning, or drooping, which can indicate overwatering or nutrient deficiencies.

Inspect the soil moisture; too dry or too wet soil can cause problems.

Ensure the plant is getting the right amount of light, as too much or too little can stress it.

Finally, consider environmental factors like temperature and humidity, and adjust care routines accordingly to revive your plant.
