🌿 Deep green foliage streaked with graphic silver stripes • 🌳 Large generous size • 🌑 Tolerates low light • 💧 Moderate watering • ✨ Very easy to care for • 📏 H80 cm | Pot Ø21 cm
The Aglaonema 'Stripes', also called striped Aglaonema, displays long deep green leaves crossed by fine parallel silver stripes that follow the central vein, creating a very graphic feathering effect. Native to the tropical forests of Southeast Asia, this variety is among the most imposing Aglaonemas and partial shade plants in the catalog.
Its uniqueness compared to other Aglaonemas: a pattern of fine, regular parallel stripes very different from the marbled or spotted variegations of other cultivars, and a generous spreading habit (H80 cm | Pot Ø21 cm) making it one of the most striking Aglaonemas on the floor or on a low piece of furniture. The genus's exceptional tolerance to low light makes it ideal for large dimly lit spaces.
Which Aglaonema variety to choose?
The Aglaonema genus offers a remarkable palette of colors and patterns — here are the main varieties in the catalog:
- Aglaonema 'Stripes' (this plant) — deep green foliage streaked with fine, parallel silver stripes, large generous size (H80 cm | Pot Ø21 cm). The version with the most graphic and regular pattern.
- Aglaonema 'Silverado' — lance-shaped leaves with a broad shiny silver area on a light green background, compact size (H40 cm | Pot Ø14 cm). The brightest and most metallic version.
- Aglaonema 'B.J. Freedman' — large dark green leaves with graphic silver veins, generous habit (H70 cm | Pot Ø24 cm). The largest and most sophisticated version.
- Aglaonema 'Silver Bay' — large oval silver-green leaves, with more diffuse marbled patterns. The silver version with the widest leaves.
- Aglaonema 'White Joy' — very variegated creamy white foliage on a soft green background (H35 cm | Pot Ø12 cm). The most contrasting and graphic version.
- Aglaonema 'Keylime' — bright lemon green and graphic foliage. The most vibrant version.
- Aglaonema 'Spring Red' — foliage marbled with vermilion red on a dark green background (H60 cm | Pot Ø19 cm). The most colorful and bold version.
- Aglaonema 'Maria' — green foliage with silver reflections, classic patterns. The most traditional and accessible version.
Exposure & location
The Aglaonema 'Stripes' thrives in moderate to low indirect light. Its tolerance to shade is exceptional, but too little light strongly slows growth and dulls the silver stripes. Avoid direct sun which fades the patterns and burns the foliage.
- Exposure: moderate to low indirect light — away from a window, in a bright corridor or a corner of a room with indirect light.
- Location: spacious living room, office, entrance, waiting room, wide corridor — its large size suits generous volumes.
- Temperature: 18 to 27 °C — minimum 15 °C in winter, sensitive to cold drafts.
- Soil type: light, rich, and well-draining — universal potting soil for green plants mixed with perlite or coconut fiber.
The more direct the light received (without direct sun), the more pronounced and bright the silver stripes will be — this is the main condition to maintain the characteristic graphic effect of the variety.
Watering & maintenance
The Aglaonema prefers a slightly moist substrate during growth but does not tolerate water stagnation at the base. Overwatering is among the most common mistakes with this plant: always let the surface dry between waterings.
- Watering: moderate — let the surface of the substrate dry out 3 to 4 cm between waterings, about every 7 to 10 days in spring and summer, more spaced out in winter.
- Drainage: essential — pot with holes, clay pebbles at the bottom, saucer always emptied.
- Humidity: tolerates dry air but appreciates occasional misting of the leaves, especially in winter during heating.
- Fertilizer: liquid fertilizer for green plants diluted by half, once a month from March to September only.
- Care: gently remove yellowed basal leaves by cutting them at the base of the petiole to maintain a clean and airy silhouette.
- Repotting: every 2 to 3 years in spring into a slightly larger pot — the Aglaonema likes to feel a bit cramped.
Dust the leaves with a soft damp cloth once a month — the thin layer of dust dulls the shine of the characteristic silver stripes.
Decor ideas & plant pairings
With its large size and vibrant silver-striped foliage, the Aglaonema 'Stripes' brings a graphic structure to dimly lit interiors. To create a relaxing plant corner, it pairs particularly well with other shade-tolerant plants.
- For a structured shade plant duo, pair it with an Aspidistra elatior with deep glossy solid green foliage — the dark monochrome green of the Aspidistra highlights the silver stripes of the 'Stripes', and both plants share the same tolerance for low light.
- For a sophisticated monochrome composition, surround it with a Peperomia Napoli Nights with slate gray foliage with silver reflections — the two scales of silver patterns interact in a contemporary gray-green palette.
- To structure vertically, add a Sansevieria 'Spearmint' with light green upright blades — the graphic upright form of the Sansevieria contrasts with the spreading clump of the Aglaonema in a very architectural composition.
- To enhance the silver stripes, slip it into a matte Elho Brussels Anthracite decorative pot — the deep anthracite highlights each silver stripe like a streak of light and creates a clean contemporary atmosphere.
The Aglaonema 'Stripes' is perfect on the floor in a spacious living room, or on a low piece of furniture in a bright but indirect corner — its large size makes a strong presence without dominating the space.
Verdeia tips
- Adjust watering to the light received: the darker the location, the slower the plant consumes water and the less it needs. Space out waterings accordingly and rely on the substrate’s condition, never on a fixed schedule.
- Maintain a stable temperature above 15 °C: Aglaonema is very sensitive to cold and drafts. Keep it away from poorly insulated windows in winter and exterior-facing entrance doors.
- Propagate by cuttings to multiply the plant: the side shoots that appear at the base root easily in a glass of water or directly in light substrate — a simple way to get new identical plants.

Will the plant look exactly like the photo?
The photos accurately represent the variety and the stated size. Since each plant is unique, slight differences in shape, foliage, or color may occur — and that’s part of their charm.

What to do upon receiving my plant?
Open your package as soon as you receive it and carefully remove the plant from its packaging. Let it acclimate for 24 hours in its new environment before watering. If it has been slightly stressed during transport, it will recover its shape after one or two days in the light.
What to do if my plant arrives damaged?
Contact us within 48 hours with a photo of the issue. Our team will assess the situation and offer you the best solution: replacement, partial refund, or recovery advice.
Can I return a plant?
Since plants are living beings, standard returns are not possible. However, we guarantee good health upon delivery: if the plant arrives damaged, it will be replaced free of charge. For any other cases (order error, decorative pot, accessory), returns are possible within 14 days.
