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.

Pretty; sturdy; perfect size
Style: Contempo, Style: Contempo
Nice, sturdy little sponge and brush holder for the side of the sink. I was afraid my sink would me too small and spent lots of time trying to find a holder for the rim/countertop area. This one is not too big but fits my dobie and brillo perfectly. My sink is a little too short for a full fledged brush so when I tried to put in the brush I use sometimes it sticks up too much. That's really not the products fault so I won't subtract the score because of it. Also, I decided to put the holder flush against the side closest to me, instead of the side or the back of the sink. If I had chosen that location, the brush sticking out might not be an issue.

Yes the suction works on stainless steel!!
Style: Contempo
I've been through many rag holders before including a magnetic one, which broke. But the suction on this sucker (pun intended) is top notch! It doesn't slide around or come off or slide to the bottom of the sink. It just stays put which is so unique for anything with suction cups. The only reason i am giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that it is quite small. I wish it were a few inches longer so i could easily fit two rags or sponges in the holder. But i have to jam them in and its not pretty. So for the price, i think it should have been bigger. Still a good product because of the functionality of the suction cups.

Absolutely Perfect
Style: Contempo
This is honestly one of my favorite kitchen purchases (which sounds silly) but it's AWESOME. There's a hole for my dish brush, which is so convenient and keeps it from draining anywhere else AND it has a nice ledge for my sponge. The suction was a little iffy at first, but once it really hunkered down, I've had it for a month and it hasn't fallen since the first day. I LOVE THIS

Great product once put on correctly.
Style: Contempo
When I first received it and placed it on, it continued to fall so I almost returned it. However, I found a method online that worked and it has not fallen since even after all the water and soap getting near it. I’ve placed it on a stainless steel sink so not sure if the method works on other surfaces. Clean the area with soap and water and then make sure there’s no soap residue. Make the water temperature hot and “heat up” both the steel surface and the suction. While it’s still wet, firmly place the suction and make sure it doesn’t move. That should do the trick!

Great item to make life more pleasant!
Style: Contempo
A tiny item that makes my life more lovely. No more yucky scrubber residue all over the counter edge, or soap leaking all over from a faulty handle. A sponge can be at hand and I can hang my cloth somewhere besides the top of the faucet. The suction cups stuck well now at first, and I can move it whenever I want. Not to big nor too small. Wire is firm and strong. Will edit if it doesn’t hold up but right now highly recommend! Edit to add: A bit disappointing that the suction cups are not reliable. Even after carefully cleaning the side of my deep sink with vinegar and washing the suction cups, they come loose about once a day. Giving them a hard push on seems to help, but not a cure. I revised the rating to average 3 stars. It really isn’t a problem in the sink.
