The low-light queen from the Philippines
Selected from the shaded forests of Southeast Asia, the Maria variety is one of the most shade-tolerant of the entire Aglaonema genus, keeping its variegation even far from windows.
Its slow growth and dense clump make it an ideal office and hallway plant that sails through the years with minimal attention.
"The Aglaonema Maria keeps its color where the sun never reaches."
