Aglaonema Katrina Chinese Evergreen
The beautiful leaf pattern of this easy to care for pink house plant will instantly make it one of your new favorites just like it did us. Katrina is a low-light tropical plant that survives in even the lowest of light conditions.
Aglaonemas are commonly called Chinese evergreen plants. The common name is in reference to its origin from China where it grows in tropical forests. NASA has placed Aglaonema on its top ten list of clean air plants because of the plant’s ability to remove benzene and formaldehyde from indoor air.
Chinese Evergreens like Aglaonema Katrina are the perfect accent plant on desks in the office due to their ability to thrive in artificial light and survive for extended periods with little care. In their natural habitat, they grow beneath the canopy of larger tropical trees and seldom if ever get direct sunlight. Misting Aglaonemas is beneficial as it raises the humidity around the plant. This is especially helpful to the plant during the colder winter months when heaters tend to dry the indoor air.
