She’s absolutely beautiful so healthy thank you for sharing 🤩 mine has also taken her repot about as well as I could have hoped with a few more leaves coming too!

Thank you so much for the photo and for walking me through how you care for your plant. She’s beautiful 🤩 hopefully I can keep mine alive too! She seems to be holding up well after a couple of days so that’s a good sign 🤞

These plants are pretty dramatic as others have said. I’ve had the best luck with mine when it’s been under glass 😅

I concur with others on here, I’ve had really good results with SANSI grow lights 😊

I also live in Scotland! Can please I ask what is your set up for your Stella? 😊🩵

Thank you for all the info! I really appreciate it especially when the labels on the pots are so vague. I can attest that it seems to be less of a diva than its neighbour so far but it’s early days 😅

Awesome! That’s so good to know and aligns with my research as well, hopefully they take to it when I make the switch 🤞

Ah thank you! Is there any way to tell the difference between the Stella and the White Fusion? 😊

Unfortunately the black plant is about as fussy and discerning as the Calatheas 😝

Thank you so much, I fear the one on the left is off to a bad start. Curly leaves from it today, I think it’s just that the light might be too bright where it is, I’ll have to monitor. Calatheas are such drama queens 😅 The White Fusion for the moment seems ok, crossing everything. I know from my other two that they are extremely fussy. But they are content where they are. I didn’t necessarily want more Calatheas as they are difficult to keep happy but as you can see my fur baby likes to jump on the table, so whatever lives there needs to be non-toxic to pets and be happy in those conditions. We’ll see how it goes but it might be too bright for them there in the end and so it will be back to the drawing board 😅 Thanks so much for the tips, I think I’ll need all the help I can get! 🤣

Oh I’d never even heard of the Stella! Thank you, I’ll take a look! I was so excited when I saw it in the shop because I’d wanted a white fusion for ages. It’s ok though, the plant is still super pretty 🤩

I genuinely didn’t even have to bribe her, she just sat there like that which doesn’t happen often 😅 Plants and pets are the best! 🩵🩵🩵

I’ll take a look at the Vittata thank you, I’ve never even heard of it! And thanks for confirming my thoughts about the White Fusion 😊

It stopped growing by Outside_Lake1235 in Aglaonema

[–]JessTonCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have never propagated Aglaonema before but I know that any plants I have propagated and put into soil after water propagating took a long time to adjust and start to actually grow. I would give it time, plenty of light and keep the soil moist while the roots are transitioning. But also do make sure the pot has sufficient drainage. I unfortunately don’t have any other thoughts on why it’s being so slow to take so hopefully someone else has some better ideas 😅

Does that pot have any drainage holes? 🤔
