Aglaonema 'Snowflake'
Dense pale speckling across green leaves gives Aglaonema 'Snowflake' its crisp, spotted pattern. Cream, silver and white flecks sit across smooth oval-lance blades, while the green base keeps each leaf clearly outlined.
The plant starts as a small central crown and slowly builds into a fuller clump. Young plants need careful watering, steady warmth and a snug pot while the roots fill the container.
Foliage details
- Growth habit: Compact clumping crown with short stems and regular new leaves.
- Leaf pattern: Green blades with dense pale speckling and cream-silver marbling.
- Leaf shape: Oval to lance-shaped leaves with smooth surfaces and defined margins.
- Small-pot behaviour: Young plants prefer careful watering and gradual pot increases.
Compact growth and origin
Aglaonema 'Snowflake' produces bright speckled foliage from a small central crown. Leaves sit closer together when the plant gets filtered light, warm roots and a pot that does not stay wet at the base.
The genus Aglaonema is native from north-eastern India to Papua New Guinea and grows in warm, shaded tropical habitats. The dense pale flecking across the green leaves gives this cultivar its snow-speckled look.
Aglaonema 'Snowflake' care essentials
- Light: Give bright indirect light so new leaves stay shorter and the crown does not open up loosely.
- Watering: Water when the upper 2–4 cm of substrate feels dry. Small pots can dry at the edge while staying damp below.
- Substrate: Use a fine airy aroid mix with perlite, pumice or fine bark for root oxygen.
- Drainage: Use a pot with drainage holes and empty decorative covers after watering.
- Temperature: Keep above 18 °C. Warm roots help young crowns restart after shipping and push new leaves without translucent cold marks.
- Humidity: Moderate humidity reduces stuck or marked new leaves; dry heated air may crisp pale leaf edges.
- Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth. Young plants need gentle nutrition in a small root area.
- Repotting: Repot once roots have filled the current pot, moving up gradually.
- Pruning: Remove ageing leaves cleanly at the base and trim older stems above a node if the crown opens.
- Propagation: Divide rooted side shoots or root stem cuttings in warm, humid conditions.
Growth and leaf cues
- Open, loose crown: Increase filtered light gradually and rotate the pot so new leaves do not all lean to one side.
- Yellow soft leaves: Check for wet substrate, cool roots or a pot holding too much moisture.
- Brown pale patches: Move the plant away from direct sun or intense heat through glass.
- Slow post-shipping growth: Keep the plant warm and lightly moist until new roots grip the mix and new leaves start moving again.
Pet and child safety
Aglaonema 'Snowflake' contains irritating calcium oxalate crystals. Eaten plant tissue can cause oral irritation and digestive discomfort, so place the pot where pets and small children cannot reach the leaves. Clean tools and hands after pruning.

Shocking
Format: Paperback
An informative read that will make you sick as the hanging death of people becomes a spectator sport. I knew going in I was going to be really angry about this and I was so right. It has been more than a month since I finished it and the horrific cruelty and lawlesness still makes my blood boil.And many times the "supposed law" were guilty of opening the jail or were complicit in letting this happen. It will make you think.

A valuable book for non-lawyers and lawyers
Why would non-lawyers want to read a book on persuading judges? For several reasons actually. First, many of us are involved in work that requires persuading others to adopt our views. While legal argument is substantially more formal and rule-driven than what most of us do, learning how to construct a logical argument as if it were to be delivered to the court, that Is governed by deadlines, restrictions on length, the need to adhere to established fact (or to establish those facts) and to be neither groveling nor inflammatory can be applied to selling your widgets.
Perhaps more important is the fact that most people don't understand the impact of the court's decisions on our daily lives, our pocketbooks and our freedoms.
Nine people sit on the Supreme Court. They cannot be removed except for the most grievous crimes and then only if Congress were to agree. More than one Justice has demonstrated that you can be senile and sit on the nation's highest court. Going down the food chain, the same applies to the federal appellate and trial courts. It is unlikely that one person in a hundred can even name a local federal district court judge and probably not one in a thousand could name the nine Supreme Court justices.
Yet these men and women have tremendous impact on our lives, as do the thousands of state court justices.
I am not a lawyer, but I consult to them and am not a stranger to the courtroom, writing drafts for legal briefs, doing legal research and the like. I have seen a lot of judges in action and have learned, in general, to fear them. They can - and do - cause tremendous harm through ill-considered decisions, making decisions with insufficient facts, assuming they know more than they do and myriad other reasons. They are gods in their courtrooms and if your lawyer fails to persuade them of the justness of your cause, you lose.
Just how do these people reach their decisions?
While justice is supposed to be blind (fat chance!), the justices are human and thus persuadable.
Bryan Garner is a noted writer on legal writing. He is actually quite witty as he explains the use of the English language to lawyers who have had their understanding of words driven out of them in law school.
Antonin Scalia is a hero to many for the courageousness of his decisions and dissents, his belief that the Constitution is to be strictly interpreted and his generally brilliant writing style.
In 115, frequently witty, short chapters the two authors (who occasionally openly disagree) lay down their thoughts on how judges can be persuaded.
It is not all about legal writing; e.g, advice to not chew your fingernails and dressing appropriately for court. They advise on giving your oral argument, which a lot of sales and marketing people would do well to read, especially the guidance to "never speak over a judge". In a sales situation, I am surprised at how often the sales person displays his or her contempt for me by not only not listening to me, but presuming they understand the point I was going to make before they spoke over me. I don't know about you, but a lot of salespeople have lost business with me for doing that.
Some of the points the authors make are points of contention themselves: i.e., "swear off substantive footnotes - or not".
None of the material in this book is truly new. Law students get elements of it in their first year as do some college students. A lot can be found in books on to be a better salesperson: i.e., don't chew your fingernails, etc. And a lot of it is plain commonsense.
But that doesn't mean this book is unhelpful. First, it reveals in tiny part how Scalia evaluates the briefs he reads and arguments he hears, which in itself is a fascinating peek. The authors also put things many people may have forgotten through lack of use into perspective. Finally, they remind lawyers and non-lawyers alike that you often have only one shot at winning your argument so you had best put your best foot forward.
Scalia and Garner show you how to do it. Overall, this is a fun, informative and helpful read.

Like Having an Expert Looking over Your Shoulder
I am a law professor who spent 25 years as a Plaintiff's lawyer before deciding to teach. I've been before the U.S. Circuit Courts of Appeal many times and state appellate courts a few times. One caveat to consider: I expect to be arguing before the United States Supreme Court in the future. I hesitate to be too ebullient, lest you think that I'm trying to curry favor. However, I think that this book is great.
Why do I recommend it? First, it is short. This book will accomplish much of what other books try to teach about advocacy, but in many fewer pages.
Secondly, it is practical. It teaches writing skills, speaking skills, and how to be persuasive with limited time.
Finally, it is not just for lawyers. Anyone trying to be persuasive can apply the same skills to other situations.
For those of you who are politically opposed to Justice Scalia (which, believe it or not, includes some law professors)this is a joint effort by Garner and Scalia, and they frequently disagree. Hearing both sides of the argument on how to write or speak persuasively will help you decide how you want to present your arguments.
How do my political opinions and Justice Scalia's opinions mesh? Can I be fair? I think so. He's a Federalist, I consider myself an Anti-Federalist. He as supporter of administrative delegation, I think delegation of congressional responsibilities to administrative agencies is congressional abdication. In short, I'm not recommending this book because Justice Scalia and I agree on policy, because on many policy matters we don't. I'm recommending it because I think it will help you.
You wont be disappointed with the book.
