The Silver Bay Chinese Evergreen — Effortlessly Beautiful, Impossibly Easy
Some plants demand constant attention. The Aglaonema 'Silver Bay' is not one of them. With its broad, silvery-green leaves edged in deep emerald, this Chinese Evergreen brings a calm, sophisticated presence to any room — and asks for almost nothing in return. It thrives in the corners other plants abandon, shrugs off missed waterings, and keeps looking polished whether you're a devoted plant parent or a self-described plant killer.
At Ed's Plant Shop, every Silver Bay is grown and hand-selected for fullness and health — so you're getting a plant that's already thriving, not one that needs to recover from shipping stress.
Plant Profile
- Botanical Name: Aglaonema commutatum 'Silver Bay'
- Common Names: Silver Bay Chinese Evergreen, Silver Stone
- Family: Araceae
- Native Range: Southeast Asia, New Guinea
- Growth Habit: Upright, bushy — grows 2–3 ft tall indoors
- Leaf Color: Silvery-green center with rich dark green margins — elegant and distinctive
- Toxicity: Toxic if ingested — keep away from pets and children
Care Guide
- Light: Low to bright indirect light — one of the most light-tolerant houseplants available. Avoid direct sun, which can scorch the leaves.
- Water: Water when the top 2" of soil are dry. It's more forgiving of underwatering than overwatering — when in doubt, wait a few more days.
- Humidity: Adapts to average home humidity. No misting required.
- Temperature: Prefers 60–80°F. Keep away from cold drafts and air conditioning vents.
- Fertilizer: Light feeder — a balanced liquid fertilizer once in spring and once in summer is plenty.
- Pruning: Remove yellow or brown leaves at the base to keep it looking its best.
- Propagation: Divide at the root during repotting to create new plants.
- Pests: Naturally resilient — one of the most pest-resistant houseplants you can own.
Why the Silver Bay Earns Its Place in Any Home
- True Low-Light Champion: Thrives in offices, hallways, and shaded rooms where most plants simply won't survive.
- Forgiving by Nature: Tolerates irregular watering, dry air, and imperfect conditions — ideal for busy lifestyles.
- Striking, Sculptural Foliage: The silver-and-green variegation is bold enough to be a focal point, refined enough to complement any décor.
- Multiple Sizes Available: From compact 4.5" starter plants to large 10" statement specimens — choose the size that fits your space.
- Air-Purifying: Filters common indoor pollutants for a healthier living environment.
- Hand-Selected Quality: Every plant from Ed's is inspected before it ships — full, healthy, and ready to settle into your home.
💡 Pro Tip: The Darker the Corner, the Better
The Silver Bay is one of the rare plants that genuinely improves in lower light conditions — its silvery variegation stays vivid even in dim spaces. Place it in that tricky corner you've been struggling to fill, and watch it thrive where everything else has failed.

A not often studied part of African history
Format: Kindle
This book presents the history of Ethiopia up to the Italian invasion as a backdrop giving the culture and the nature of the Ethiopian Empire. Ethiopia has a history of more than 3,000 years and converted to Christianity about the same time that the Roman Empire did. During the medieval period remained strong in Christianity and traded with the East as well as with medieval Europe. It was one of the most advanced countries in the world at that time. When Italy started trying to build up an empire and catch up because of its lag behind the rest of Europe in Empire building, Ethiopia was one of the last parts of Africa that was not yet a colony of a European power. Italy and made a failed attempt at conquering Ethiopia but when Mussolini took power in Italy he decided to rebuild the grandeur of Roman Empire. This book takes you through the war with Italy and tells it from the Ethiopian side as well as presenting some of the concepts of the Italian side as well. Hey you will also become acquainted with the major players on both sides of the Italian Ethiopian war. It is well researched and it describes the war, the struggle that both the Ethiopians and the Italians had during the war and the final conclusion and how the war ended. The book has been well researched and is very interesting. I found this to be an excellent book to explain the war in North Africa as well as the struggle for independence of the Ethiopians. This is a book that I would like to have had when I was teaching world history. I highly recommend this book and feel that it is a great addition to anyone's library.

A little-mentioned history
Format: Kindle
Captivating History has released a publication that tells of the period when Italy, under the government of Mussolini, invaded Ethiopia and overthrew the government of Haile Salassee. This war was revenge for Italy's loss against Ethiopia in 1896 but weakened Italy which helped its decision to align with Hitler.
For Ethiopia, the invasion represented a major setback, as it lost its independence and became subject to Italian colonial rule until the defeat of Italy in World War II. Haile Selassie returned to Ethiopia in 1941 after the British, in alliance with Ethiopian resistance fighters, liberated the country.
The Italian invasion of Ethiopia remains a significant event in African history, highlighting the consequences of colonial aggression and the limitations of international diplomacy in preventing such conflicts. It also played a role in shaping Ethiopia's determination to regain its sovereignty and become a symbol of African resistance against colonialism.
This is a worthwhile read as it explores a little-known facet of African history.

This book is an excellent read! It provides a well-organized and concise summary of Ethiopia’s entire history, which is no small task given the country’s rich and complex past. The writing is consistent, informative, and historically accurate, making it easy to follow and deeply engaging. I especially appreciate how it also includes insights into Eritrea’s history, offering a broader understanding of the region. I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking a solid, accessible introduction to Ethiopian and Eritrean history. Captivating History did a fantastic job!

A compact history
Format: Paperback
Sometimes we want to take a historical subject that we know little about and get a brief gloss to learn enough to discover which parts of the subject we want to delve into at greater length. "History of Ethiopia" is exactly what we need to satisfy that desire.
We get the entire history of the African nation, from the very ancient days up to this very year, 2022. naturally, we do not get many nuances. What we do get is the big picture. We know how the various periods in history fit together. From the Queen of Sheba to the nasty era of the Communist Derg, we get a little bit of everything.
One irritation that I had was the coverage of the Ethiopian-Somalia war in the 1970s. The crucial role played by the Cuban army is committed entirely. On the other hand, the 1540 Portuguese expedition headed by Christopher da Gama is briefly but adequately covered. Save for the intervention of da Gama the kingdom might well have been lost.
If you need a fast introduction to Ethiopia, this is a good place to begin. Captivating History, the maker, has dozens of similar books, often on specific, narrowly focuses topics.
