An easy to care for house plant. Position: bright, indirect light Soil: good potting compost Rate of growth: slow Hardiness: tender (indoors only) Current height: approximately 45cm (+ or - 10% including the pot) Pot cover: choose a 16cm pot cover to give a good fit over the pot A tough and undemanding houseplant, Chinese evergreen is more tolerant than most to lower light levels. That makes it perfect for darker corners or hallways, where its long slender silver-green foliage (which is attractively patterned with darker green markings), will help add a splash of colour. Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plant (which is sent out in a nursery pot). They do however make excellent potted plants, and if you wish to pot yours up, we do have a wide range of pots on our website to choose from. Home care: Keep away from draughts and water sparingly in winter. Maintain temperatures above 16°C and mist the leaves regularly to increase humidity. Repot (preferably into a shallow pot) every 3 years or so in spring.
