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.

Easy to assemble, and comfortable!
Color: Blue
I bought this chair for my teenaged son, who has a small student's desk in his room (also ordered and assembled at the same time). This fits perfectly for the small desk, and is reasonably comfortable for a medium-sized adult, teenager, or older child. Once put together, the chair itself appears to work flawlessly, seems comfortable enough, the height is easily adjustable, and of course -- the most important part, according to my son -- "spins silently 'round and 'round really fast for a long time." The blue color is a nice, deep blue hue that works well for him and makes it stand out a little more than your average black chair. I was able to assemble it fairly quickly without issues. My son uses it to sit in for his schoolwork and computer gaming/programming/hobbies at his desk, etc. and he says it's comfortable, even after sitting in it for 1-2 hours at a time. With this type of chair, you're getting exactly what you pay for and what you see in the pictures. No more, no less. The price is fairly reasonable, it feels sturdy, and if you're looking for an easy and simple office chair for light task work at a computer desk for a teenager or college student with limited space, this is an easy win. While it's not the smallest office chair out there, it's certainly not a large one, either. I am a medium-sized woman at 5'4", and my bottom doesn't hang off of it; that said, a taller/bigger person might want to look into something a little larger for comfort, if they have the space for it. My son is 5'6" (and growing) and slim, so it works perfectly well for him. My husband, who is larger and taller than us, sat in it and said it didn't feel bad...but he was unsure how comfortable it would be sitting in it for longer stretches of time. So...your mileage may vary. Overall, this was exactly what we were looking for and precisely what we expected for this product, so we're happy. I will update this review should anything change.

Great small rolling desk chair.
Color: Black
Small footprint for small office. Comfortable. Nice back support and super easy to assemble. Told my 300lb son he’s not to sit on it. It’s my chair.

Good as a task chair, but terrible for long-term sitting
I have revised and updated this review after two years after getting a replacement chair, downgrading it from 5 stars to 3 stars. I have owned an office chair from Staples for two years. It was a $200 office mesh chair. It seemed pretty comfortable when sitting in it at the store. Unfortunately, it turned out to be uncomfortable for long sitting duration, I seemed to end up slouching often because it wasn't very supportive. The seat depth was probably longer than optimal for my legs. The mesh seating was not supportive. With these issues, I thought a task chair would be more useful. But I didn't want to spend so much money on a chair again, so here comes Amazon to the rescue. This chair allows me to sit comfortably with a reasonable seat depth, so I'm now able to sit with proper posture. The foam base initially felt better than the mesh base. This all led to a 5 star rating. After a year and a half, however, it has come to my realization that the foam seating is terribly inadequate for long periods of sitting. Maybe after a year the foam was worn out to the point that it was no longer supportive. After long periods of sitting, I could feel the wood support base. I tried a seat cushion to no avail. In the end, I got rid of this chair and purchase a chair from one of the high-end office ergonomic chair manufacturers. It cost 10x more than the Amazon chair, but it's night and day with regards to being comfortable. It is worth the cost to protect my back.

Love the design, comfort and ease
Color: Grey, Color: Grey
Assembly was a breeze with the Amazon Basics Ergonomic Executive Office Desk Chair. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, and I had the chair put together quickly without any hassle. This simple setup made the whole experience even more satisfying from the start. In terms of comfort, the chair truly delivers. It provides excellent lumbar support, I assume it will make long hours at my desk much more enjoyable. The adjustable height feature lets me customize my seating position, and the flip-up armrests allow me to slide the chair neatly under my desk without worrying about damage. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. The chair looks stunning in my office and perfectly complements the decor. It combines style, comfort, and practicality at a fantastic value, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to upgrade their office chair. I love you so much that I ordered another one for my husband’s desk.
