Chinese Evergreen Aglaonema Plant Rescue and Propagation

  • The Chinese evergreen is a hardy, hard-to-kill, houseplant that has passed the test of time. It thrives in indirect light, but can tolerate low light.
    Chinese evergreens, also known as aglaonemas, are easy to maintain and easy to propagate.
    The problem with my Chinese evergreens, aglaonemas, is that they occasionally get infested with mealy bugs, and mealy bugs are very difficult to rid - especially if you allow an advanced infestation.
    This video is a plant rescue video where I saved a Chinese evergreen from an advanced infestation of mealy bugs with neem oil and dish washing liquid to drastic measures.
    Chinese evergreens are one of thee best houseplants because of easy maintenance and propagation. These plants purify indoor air by eliminating toxins and other harmful gases.
    Chinese evergreens are very toxic to people and animals, so if your pets like to chew on these plant, take steps to avoid poisoning.

    I received a 2 leaf CE back in May or June. I tried to rehab it in soil...nothing. I lost one of the 2 leaves. So I stuck the one leaf stem in water until bumpy roots appeared around the stem. I planted it and threw it outside in a shady spot on the patio. Within a week or so I have shoots growing. Today I have a whole new leaf. So there is hope that I can get at least 4 or 5 more weeks of outdoor sun and humidity before I have to bring it in. Thanks for the video.

      Hey T Time,
      I don't give up easily: whether it be friends, work, pets, or plants. I wouldn't want anyone to give up on me.
      One of my four pink Pink Chinese Evergreens is constantly getting infested with mealy bugs, I've treated so much with neem, I think the plant is stunned. All the leaves fell off, but I didn't want to give up - that plant had cost me $20!
      I have it in a shady place on my patio, and it's getting leaves... small somewhat deformed leaves, but it's not dead.
      I'm keeping it on the dryer side, and it seems to be working.
      I think the plant is staying alive due to our will to keep them alive.
      Stay strong :)
      Gerald:)

    You’re one of the few people who can get rid of mealy bugs. Great job! 👍👍👍👍👍. I’m not convinced about the perched water table thing. I don’t always put gravel in my pots but my plants do well either way. An expert botanist told me it helps when the soil becomes too compacted. I love Betsy and the other girl, but they are not experts.

      You have given me much thought these past few days. I keep your thoughts in my head as I work in the garden.

      She seems like she's sweet person. She's currently pregnant and talking a lot about that. I send her best wishes.

    Thank you. Your video is very informative. I am a newly retiree and a new gardener. I recently bought some Chinese Evergreens (we call them Philippine Evergreens here in the Philippines) from a nursery. The nursery had over watered them and when I got home to repot them I saw that the roots had rotted. I worked on them and now they are showing new growth and very robust. I'm hoping they become as beautiful as yours.

      Hello, Edwin
      You're a retiree in the Philippines? I want to be a retiree in the Philippines! This plant will grow well there. Hawaii has it's hottest summer, and this plant just "took off!" The pink and red ones are very nice as well, and I think pink is "happy."
      Please keep in touch. I will be there in ten years. I was planning to retire in Urdaneta City, Pangasinan in Central Luzon. I like the rural areas.
      Keep in touch,

      Hey Paul,
      I know! it's good and bad. I am very happy with the way the Chinese evergreen looks - it makes me very happy, but so I will need to re-pot them, and that's when the plants will look awkward for a while or possibly struggle. It looks beautiful. I wish I could put it in my bedroom, so I can look at it before I sleep, but I don't want to awaken to a dead kitten.
      It's been very hot and humid lately. It's suppose to be cooling down at night, and even the nights are barely tolerable, but the plants are growing wild!

    The use of sand came from Your usage!
    I notice it helps with deterring fungus gnats!
    I purchased a new calathea and vowed not to! But this one is absolutely beautiful!

      Thank you for your encouragement. I really appreciate your support.
      Beach sand should be okay. I hope it's been washed and does nothave much salt remaining because too much salt will interfere with the plants ability to take up water.
      Sand, as a topper, is great for discouraging and eliminating fungus gnats.

    • @PlantsaremyTherapy
      @PlantsaremyTherapy  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Val,
      I know how you felt. Mealy bugs are difficult to defend against. I was so frustrated with Chinese evergreens - a few years back - that I got into peace lilies, but I have found neem oil and it has seemed to be an effective pesticide. I would be wary to bring such an advanced infestation near my other plants for fear it may spread to the rest of my plants.
      It's nice hearing from you again. Thank yo for visiting and taking the time to comment.
      Friends,
      Gerald:)

    I love your videos. I too had mealy bugs on my all green spider plant. It is like 10 years old. I sprayed it with neem oil also. I don't see anymore bugs but is still in isolation.

    • @PlantsaremyTherapy
      @PlantsaremyTherapy  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Good morning, Becky
      Aloha from Hawaii!
      I'm happy you were successful in getting rid of your mealy bugs. They seem to love some plant more than others. on my "moss rose"/portulaca I have a difficult time keeping the mealy bugs off my "moss rose"/portulaca, and even though it's a beautiful plant with bright flowers, I won't buy any. My last portulaca remains mealy bug free, but I watch it closely. I don't want the mealy bugs to find refuse, built up into an infestation, then start attacking my other plants.

      Hey, Carol!
      I think you're going to like this plant, but I noticed that this plant gets mealy bugs, so I take them outside to hose them down about once a month. Mealy bugs can't handle water. Did you buy the plant yet, if not try the pink or red cultivars, they are just as sturdy.

    I have one of these guys with almost totally silver leaves & a couple of the dark green & pink splashed leaf variety too.
    They are doing well! Not as well as your tropical haven there though 😉
    I really liked how you showed the entire process so we can see months later. That must be hard keeping videos straight so it’s much appreciated.
    One request, you can do it if you like, but could you do a walk around your garden? I’m in northern Utah which is very different 😂 and I’d love some tropical eye candy! 🤩

    • @PlantsaremyTherapy
      @PlantsaremyTherapy  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello, eM J
      Utah? I lived on the mainland for a couple of years during high school... seems like a million years ago - I'm not that old:) I lived in California City near Mojave, California - just below Death Valley. It was an experience. I was able to keep a couple of pothos alive. Roses grew well outside, but I wasn't into plants as much while living there.
      I remember a friend near Bakersfield had plum and apricot trees. I never realized how productive those trees can be. Tree ripen peaches, plums, and apricots tastes really good. Hawaii gets those fruits picked green and it ripens in the crates... very dry and bland tasting.
      Anyways,
      Thank you for visiting and taking the time to leave a comment. I like showing how plants progress. It takes planning, and sometimes I get distracted and when friends want plants, I mindlessly give them away forgetting that I planted them for a video. I'm remembering now - since it had already happened a few times :)
      Thank you again. I hope you have a great week:)

      The neem oil and neem spray is found in the big box stores like Wal*Mart, Lowes, Home Depot, Target, etc... but I've also found them in small garden stores. Better, more pure neem oil can be found on the internet, but shipping to Hawaii is very expensive.
      The neem oil, must be diluted in water and put in a spray bottle to spray onto plants, but the ready to use spray are not meant to be diluted.
      I use the neem spray about every couple months to ward off parasites. It seems to work, but the bugs are always waiting to take hold.
      Thank you for visiting and thank yo for finding the time to comment.

      If you can't find neem oil you can use camphor or napthelen balls

    • @PlantsaremyTherapy
      @PlantsaremyTherapy  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello Iona
      Thank you, my friend. Aloha from Hawaii. It's another hot ans humid day the plants love and I'm just trying to survive.
      I use Alaska Fish Fertilizer from any of the big box stores, but I find it in smaller garden stores also. Dilute is and it feeds the microbe in the soil so they can break down "wastes" into elements the plants can uptake. If I use chemical fertilizer (rarely), I use it less than half the recommended dose. Chemical fertilizers bypass the microbes and go directly to the plant. It is good to feed plants fast, but it starves the microbes.
      Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. It is very encouraging.
      Gerald:)

      This plant is a plant that I received from a good friend years ago, and it's still growing well... well I've propagated many times.
      Have a great week!
