It is unique for its stemless growth, and even produces some berries! Propagating Chinese evergreens is not too difficult. To propagate your Aglaonema, you will need head cuttings which are cut from the mother plant in spring. To make a head cutting, take a sharp, disinfected knife and cut off a 10 cm piece of healthy shoot from the upper part of the plant. Remove the lower leaves and prepare a pot with a suitable growing medium, such as our Plantura Organic Herb & Seeding Compost. This soil is peat-free and due to its loose structure, offers optimal growing conditions for young plants. It also supports strong root growth which is particularly important in the early stages as this will ensure the plant can supply itself with sufficient nutrients later in life. Slightly moisten the growing medium and insert the cutting up to the base of the remaining leaf. If kept at around 22 to 24 °C, roots should form after about six weeks. Place the pots in a moderately bright spot and keep the soil evenly moist. You can also put a transparent bag over the cutting to increase the humidity but be sure to air this out from time to time.
