Aglaonema pictum 'tri-colour' (rare indoor plant)

The Aglaonema pictum tricolor, commonly referred to as the "camouflage plant," is a striking tropical foliage plant highly sought after for its unique, variegated leaves. Native to the rainforests of Southeast Asia, particularly Sumatra, this member of the Araceae family thrives in warm, humid environments.

The leaves of the Aglaonema pictum tricolor are its most distinctive feature. They display an intricate camouflage pattern in three shades of green: a dark forest green base, medium green splotches, and light silvery-green highlights. The ovate leaves are slightly elongated with a glossy finish, adding to the plant's ornamental appeal.

This slow-growing, compact plant typically reaches a height of 12–24 inches (30–60 cm) in cultivation, making it ideal for tabletops or small indoor spaces. It prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate low-light conditions, a characteristic common to many Aglaonema species. However, to maintain its vibrant variegation, moderate lighting is recommended.

Aglaonema pictum tricolor requires well-draining soil, consistent moisture without waterlogging, and high humidity to thrive. It benefits from occasional misting or placement near a humidifier. This plant is moderately sensitive to temperature fluctuations and should be kept in a stable environment between 65–80°F (18–27°C).

Due to its unique appearance and care requirements, the Aglaonema pictum tricolor is a prized addition to any indoor plant collection, particularly for enthusiasts who appreciate rare and visually stunning foliage plants.
