Common Name: Aglaonema Simplex, Malayan Sword
Aglaonema Simplex, commonly known as Malayan Sword or Chinese Evergreen, is a beautiful plant that thrives in low-light settings. It is naturally hardy and doesn’t require a ton of attention to grow well. Nutrient-rich substrates and high humidity levels are preferable given the plant’s natural origin from tropical and subtropical areas of Asia. Aglaonema Simplex is not a true aquatic and should not be grown submerged in aquarium conditions. The plant is best suited in emersed portions of aquariums or terrarium style planted setups.
