About this plant

'First Diamond' has leaves spotted so heavily with bright white and cream that the centers look almost snowy, framed by dark green edges. It brightens a room the way a white-flowered plant would, all year.

Chinese evergreens tolerate almost any indoor spot, including lower light, though bright indirect light keeps the white crisp. Water when the top inch of soil is dry. Keep it away from cold windows and drafts in winter.

It comes in a 4 or 6 inch size, in a nursery pot or an eco pot. A dependable, easy plant for offices, bedrooms and dim living rooms.

The ASPCA lists Chinese evergreen (Aglaonema) as toxic to cats and dogs, so keep it out of reach of cats and dogs.

From November to April, we recommend adding Winter Plant Shipping Protection (a heat pack) at checkout. Plants shipped in cold weather without it are not covered for cold damage.
