Aglaonema pictum 'Tricolor'

Aglaonema pictum 'Tricolor' is a patterned form of Aglaonema pictum, a species from Sumatra including Nias. It grows as a low, slow subshrub with short stems and oval leaves marked in several green tones.

The plant forms a compact crown and adds new leaves slowly. New leaves emerge rolled and pale, then firm up as the green mottling becomes clearer.

Key traits of Aglaonema pictum 'Tricolor'

  • Selected Aglaonema pictum form with three-tone green leaves
  • Oval leaves with dark green, mid-green and pale green mottling
  • Compact subshrub habit with slow indoor growth
  • Species background from wet tropical Sumatra, including Nias
  • Best where warmth, humidity and moisture stay consistent; cold or dry windowsills can stall new leaves and crisp the edges

Leaf pattern and habitat

Aglaonema pictum is an Araceae species from wet tropical forest conditions. In cultivation, 'Tricolor' describes selected plants with three-tone leaf patterning within Aglaonema pictum.

Give it filtered light, warm roots and lightly moist substrate; sudden dry heat or cold air can mark new leaves. In a pot, older stems may slowly lengthen and root from nodes when they sit close to moist substrate.

Care requirements for Aglaonema pictum 'Tricolor'

  • Light: Place in bright filtered light, such as an east-facing window or moderate grow-light position.
  • Watering: Keep the substrate lightly and evenly moist. Water when the upper 2–3 cm begins to dry.
  • Substrate: Use a fine, airy mix with coco coir, small bark, perlite, pumice and a little fine composted leaf matter.
  • Drainage: Keep the mix open enough that water drains freely while the roots stay slightly moist.
  • Temperature: Keep at 20–28 °C for active growth. Growth slows strongly in cool rooms.
  • Humidity: Aim for moderate to high humidity, especially during new leaf expansion. A plant cabinet or humidifier can keep conditions steadier.
  • Feeding: Feed very lightly during active growth. Slow-growing pictum forms handle weak, regular nutrition better than heavy doses.
  • Repotting: Repot carefully only when roots fill the pot or the substrate has degraded. Disturbed roots recover more cleanly in warm conditions.
  • Placement: Choose a stable position away from cold windows, hot radiators and sudden air movement, as new leaves mark more easily when conditions change suddenly.
  • Propagation: Propagate by rooted divisions or stem sections with nodes, kept warm and humid while new roots form.

Growth responses

  • Yellowing with soft leaf stalks: Check the lower root ball for saturation and improve drainage before watering again.
  • Crisp leaf edges: Review humidity, watering consistency and dry heat from radiators or vents.
  • Small, weak new leaves: Check temperature and light level; cool conditions slow this species noticeably.
  • Leaf marks after shipping or moving: Keep the plant warm and in filtered light until the next leaves harden without new marks.
  • Stem stretch with fewer leaves: Check whether the plant is reaching for light and rotate it gradually toward a brighter filtered position.

Slow compact growth

This plant naturally grows slowly and stays compact. Warm roots and stable humidity help new leaves unfurl without sticking or drying at the edges.

Safety and handling

Aglaonema pictum 'Tricolor' contains irritating calcium oxalate crystals. The leaves and stems can irritate the mouth and throat if eaten, so place the plant where pets and children cannot reach it. Wash hands after cutting or dividing stems.

Aglaonema pictum etymology

The botanical name is Aglaonema pictum (Roxb.) Kunth, in the Araceae family. Aglaonema is commonly derived from Greek roots meaning bright or shining and thread. The species epithet pictum comes from Latin pictus, meaning painted or coloured, referring to marked foliage. In horticultural use, 'Tricolor' describes selected plants with three green tones on the leaves.

Aglaonema pictum 'Tricolor' needs steadier warmth, humidity and moisture than most common Chinese evergreen cultivars.

Perfect Combo of Fun and Serious
Format: Kindle
This story was the perfect combination of humor and seriousness. I, even as an adult, remember some of those same feelings and the drama of junior high years. It made me take a look even at myself and ask what I look for in people? It made me ask myself if I need to reach out and apologize. But it also ales me want to do better. Step away from social media. When on social media, make sure I think about my comments and how they can be construed or make people feel. Help my nieces and nephews compliment actions and other such areas and not looks. To look deeper into a person. Well written. Lots of fun. And just what I needed in a book. Chad Morris and Shelly Brown do it again.

Great book with great lessons I want all my kids to learn.
Format: Hardcover
A fun book about kids going to “virtual” school during the pandemic, but like, the coolest virtual school I’ve ever heard of. They use VR headsets to attend from the comfort and safety of their own home, and because it’s a digital world, they have the opportunity to re-invent themselves with customizable avatars. Some go as themselves, some simplify, and some go all-out for reasons that come out as the story progresses. As three students learn to navigate a new school, new friends, and new challenges they learn life lessons that I wish I could drill in to my budding teenagers. This was a fun, quick story that I’m enjoying reading to my middle grade children. I finished it on my own after bedtime because I couldn’t put it down. My eyes may have leaked a few times, but knowing Chad and Shelly’s other wonderful books, it didn’t surprise me in the least that I was so moved. 4.5 stars because some of the VR descriptions don’t mesh with real life VR capabilities (i.e. the motion sickness that would have plagued every kid the way the games/classes were described), but bonus points for the imagination and creativity in creating the school we all wish we could have attended. (If we couldn’t get in to Cragbridge that is…) 😉👍🏻 Thanks for another great book that I’m eager to put into my kids hands.

A middle grade read with great messages!
Format: Hardcover
“‘And I learned that being good is a lot more important than looking good.’ I took a deep breath. ‘I know, it sounds like a fridge magnet, but it’s true.’ Me. No filter. Smiling.” Virtually Me is a clever, heartfelt, realistic fiction middle grade readers will enjoy! Three Jr. High students share their hopes, fears, and deepest secrets as they attend an experimental virtual school during the 2021 pandemic year. Through their experiences, they learn valuable lessons about self acceptance, valuing things other than appearance, reinvention, second chances, and true friendship. It’s a thoughtful story with great messages. There are even references to K-pop! Bradley, Hunter, and Edelle all have their own reasons for attending virtual school. Ever since having a mean prank pulled on him in 3rd grade, Bradley has withdrawn himself and tried to remain in the background. He longs for friendship and acceptance. His secret dreams of sharing his talent for dancing and love of K-pop remain hidden. Attending virtual school gives him an opportunity to reinvent himself. He can design his avatar any way he wants and create a new, more hip persona. Hunter is hiding a secret from his friends. He’s experiencing a form of alopecia most likely alopecia areata and is embarrassed about his patchy hair loss. He’s extremely competitive and for one so focused on appearance and winning, this trial is extremely difficult. Virtual school allows him to be his popular, competitive self yet hide his real appearance. But, his drive to win may just be his downfall. Edelle is attending virtual school because her mom hopes to convince her that appearances aren’t everything. For the popular girl who lives for likes on social media, being forced to adopt a plain avatar and miss out on in person school is going to be difficult. Edelle is in for a huge shock when she learns what it’s like to be just average looking. When her supposed best friend who fawned all over her in real life doesn’t recognize her or give her the time of day, she has to decide what real friendship is. This is one of the first middle grade books I’ve seen that subtly addresses the pandemic and what kids were going through during that time. I loved the lessons each kid learns as they navigate online school The virtual setting allowed the kids to really explore who they were. I liked how each one had a different problem to overcome which made them easily relatable. I also loved Jasper. He’s the glue that keeps everyone together and when you learn his reason for attending virtual school, it really drives home the messages the authors were trying to convey throughout. It’s well written, fun, and even enjoyable for adults to read. This is definitely one book I’d recommend to ages 10 and up. I received advanced complimentary copies from the publisher and NetGalley. All opinions are my own and I was not required to provide a positive review. 4 1/2 stars
