Aglaonema are typically stated as "low light plant

Aglaonema are typically stated as "low light plants" but they end up in dark corners and people wonder why the plant doesn't do well in the long term
-
I prefer to say "make sure the indirect light levels are at least 100 FC (or 20 µmol) most of the day"
-
Once you measure your light and place plants accordingly, your watering and fertilizing will ensure the plant grows well
-
No amount of careful watering and magical fertilizer will help a plant in a dark corner - light is step 1
-
Comment "Light meter"
if you're ready to make understanding your light a priority 🌿💚

I'm never worried about dying leaves because I've

I'm never worried about dying leaves because I've documented my plants in great detail - enough to know that leaf turnover is inevitable and natural
-
From what I've observed, a potted Monstera deliciosa growing indoors has a leaf lifespan of roughly 2 years
-
Which means your growing conditions and care need to be good enough for the plant to put up several new leaves before that one dies - and to accept that the overall plant will change over time
-
In February 2021, this leaf was the newest and most pristine leaf. Today (May 2023), it is retiring but there have been many new leaves that followed
-
This is why I don't look at a dying leaf and wonder "what am I doing wrong?" - losing older leaves is completely fine.

A milestone in the gardening season is the date of last frost, but for putting tropical plants outside, I prefer to wait until the evening temperatures are consistently above 10°C (50°F)
-
Looks like my Monstera will have to wait until next week for its outdoor vacation to start.
-
Speaking of vacation: we're cat sitting for our friend while she's on vacation. Meet @jeannie.the.tabby.cat (under the sheets) and Sloane (in the donut)
-
Both are understandably hiding but I'm sure they'll open up over the next two weeks!
