{"product_id":"ag-005f-aglaonema-green-butterfly-copy","title":"Aglaonema Red Venus","description":"\u003cp\u003eBelonging to the diverse Araceae family, \u003cem\u003eAglaonema\u003c\/em\u003e 'Venus' is an exceptionally colorful and highly sought-after tropical evergreen perennial. The parent genus is celebrated globally for its extreme hardiness and its natural adaptability to low-light understory environments. Visually, the plant is distinguished by its broad, lanceolate, and sharply pointed leaves that grow out in a beautifully structured, layered fashion. The defining trait of this cultivar is its extraordinary, erratic marbled variegation pattern. Each leaf blade acts as a canvas, flashing vivid shades of soft pink, rich rose, and creamy green throughout the center. This luminous, painterly splash is contrasted by a darker green border running along the leaf margins and intricate darker veining that sweeps across the blade surface. Providing adequate, bright indirect filtered light is optimal to maximize its pink intensity, although it is legendary for maintaining its stunning structural beauty and low-fuss nature even when placed in poorly lit rooms.\u003cbr\u003e       \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eAglaonema\u003c\/em\u003e 'Venus' is a slow-growing perennial foliage plant that exhibits a compact, upright growth form. The broad, pointed leaves emerge gracefully from a central crown and gradually layer outward as the plant matures, creating a tidy, dense, and bushy arrangement perfect for desks, shelves, or tabletop displays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering Requirement\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eThis highly adaptable variety thrives on a moderate, well-regulated watering routine. Allow the top inch of the potting soil to dry out completely before watering thoroughly. Proper container drainage precautions must be taken to ensure stagnant water does not saturate the well-draining potting mix, preventing the onset of destructive root rot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIdeal Placement\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eA warm indoor location that receives anywhere from low light to bright, indirect filtered sunlight serves as the best position to sustain its steady growth and maintain its beautiful pink marbling. It thrives under average to high humidity levels and adapts effortlessly to a wide range of stable indoor spaces. Keep it sheltered from direct midday sun to prevent tissue scorch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eAglaonema\u003c\/em\u003e ‘Venus’ stands out for its ornamental foliage, where deep red to vivid pink colour spreads from the leaf centre and is surrounded by dark green margins. The leaves show irregular colour patterns, fine speckling, and darker veining. It is evergreen, compact, air-purifying, and suitable as a decorative foliage plant. It is toxic to humans and animals when ingested.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Care and Maintenance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eCommon cultivation problems are generally limited to lighting and moisture imbalances. While highly adaptable, placing the plant in harsh, direct unshaded sunlight will quickly bleach and burn its delicate pink tissues, whereas chronically low light can slow down its growth rate. Yellowing leaves and mushy stems serve as an immediate warning sign of overwatering or poor drainage, which chokes the root system and causes root rot. Conversely, drooping or crisping leaves indicate severe underwatering. To support its compact upright habit, grow the plant in a highly porous, well-draining potting soil mixture. General maintenance is minimal, making it an ideal choice for grouping in a lush tropical layout. Propagation is straightforward and successfully achieved by dividing root clumps or basal shoots from the central crown when the plant becomes mature and rootbound. Due to the presence of calcium oxalate crystals in its tissues, the plant sap is toxic if chewed or ingested.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cosy Plants","offers":[{"title":"Mini","offer_id":42330228293687,"sku":"Ag 007_MINI","price":0.0,"currency_code":"LKR","in_stock":false},{"title":"S","offer_id":42280282423351,"sku":"Ag 007_S","price":300.0,"currency_code":"LKR","in_stock":true},{"title":"M","offer_id":42280282456119,"sku":"Ag 007_M","price":350.0,"currency_code":"LKR","in_stock":true},{"title":"L","offer_id":42280282488887,"sku":"Ag 007_L","price":0.0,"currency_code":"LKR","in_stock":false},{"title":"XL","offer_id":42280282521655,"sku":"Ag 007_XL","price":0.0,"currency_code":"LKR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Statement","offer_id":42330228326455,"sku":"Ag 007_ST","price":0.0,"currency_code":"LKR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/5825\/0039\/files\/images_1_e43b4f82-6791-40a9-b1c8-b7c78c477ece.webp?v=1784705461","url":"https:\/\/cosyplants.com\/products\/ag-005f-aglaonema-green-butterfly-copy","provider":"Cosy Plants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
