Light

Aglaonema ‘Tigress’ likes medium to bright indirect light, but it’s pretty forgiving.

• Best spot: Near a bright window with filtered light.

• Avoid: Direct sun — it can scorch those lovely patterned leaves.

• Low light? No problem! It’ll just grow a bit slower.

 Water

This plant prefers to stay slightly moist but never soggy.

• Water when: The top 1–2 inches of soil are dry.

• Pro tip: Use your finger or a moisture meter to check.

• Warning sign: Yellow leaves = too much water. Crispy edges = too little.

 Temperature & Humidity

Your Tigress loves the same cozy temps you do.

• Ideal range: 65–80°F (18–27°C).

• Avoid: Cold drafts or sudden temp drops.

• Bonus: A bit of extra humidity (like from a pebble tray or humidifier) keeps it extra happy.

 Soil

Go for a well-draining potting mix — something like:

• 1 part regular houseplant soil

• 1 part perlite or pumice

• Optional: a bit of orchid bark for better airflow

 Fertilizer

Feed during the growing season (spring to early fall) every 4–6 weeks.

• Use a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength.

• Skip feeding in winter when growth naturally slows.

 Maintenance

• Prune: Trim yellow or damaged leaves to keep it looking fresh.

• Wipe leaves: A damp cloth keeps dust off those gorgeous patterns (and helps it breathe better).

• Repot: Every 2–3 years or when roots start peeking out of the drainage holes.

Pet Safety

Unfortunately, Aglaonemas are toxic to pets if chewed — so keep it out of reach from curious cats or dogs
