Ever had this happen? Your condo has one small window and very little light, and you want a plant but worry it will die and waste your money. Today PAMA The Gardener introduces Aglaonema Prakai Phet, a lovely foliage plant that loves dappled light and does not need harsh sun. Care difficulty is medium. Just water 3-4 times a week and never let water pool around the roots.

Why Aglaonema Prakai Phet suits low-light rooms

This one does not beg for sun. He is happy with dappled light, or even half a day of morning sun, which fits many condo rooms that only get light in the morning. His light need is rated 2 out of 5.

For decorating, his patterned leaves bring life to a work desk corner, whether your room is minimal, cozy or nordic. After a full day at the screen, looking up at his leaves gives your eyes a little rest.

Where to place him

Near a window with a sheer curtain for soft light
A desk corner that gets gentle morning sun
A shelf near the balcony door, away from direct afternoon sun
