Aglaonema Arctic Lime M
Aglaonema Arctic Lime M, Aglaonema 'Arctic Lime', is a compact, clumping Chinese evergreen houseplant noted for its frosted pale lime-to-cream central leaf variegation set against darker green margins. It forms a rounded, multi-stemmed crown indoors, tolerates lower light though brighter indirect light keeps the icy variegation vivid, and suits buyers wanting a bright, easy-care accent — keep out of reach of pets and children because all parts are toxic.

Frosty lime-centred variegation on a compact Chinese evergreen
Leaves show a bright, pale lime-to-cream centre with darker green margins, creating a frosted, high-contrast look across broad, lance-oval glossy blades. The variegation is irregular and splotchy rather than striped, and younger leaves often carry a paler midrib or petiole that enhances the icy effect. The overall silhouette is a low, slightly arching clump of upright leaves that reads bright even in mixed plantings.
Plants form a compact, multi-stemmed crown from short cane-like stems; new leaves unfurl near the centre so the plant keeps a neat, rounded habit as it grows. Variegation intensity and the pale centre can change with light and age — brighter, indirect light keeps the cream-lime contrast most vivid, while very low light tends to soften the paleness.
In daily ownership you’ll appreciate the informal, space-saving habit, but expect the usual Aglaonema trade-offs: avoid overwatering to reduce root-rot risk, and note that the pale variegation will lose contrast in dim corners. All parts are toxic if swallowed, so keep the plant away from pets and children. Pests like scale and mealybug can appear on stressed specimens.
Well suited to tabletops, shelves or bright-but-indirect windows where its frosty centre lifts a shady spot; collectors value its particular lime-cream look compared with typical commutatum-type Aglaonemas that show darker leaves with silver spotting. This listing for Aglaonema Arctic Lime M is supplied as a medium potted option, ready to display in smaller living-room or office settings.

Plant questions, answered
What makes Aglaonema 'Arctic Lime' different from other Aglaonema cultivars?
expand_more
Aglaonema 'Arctic Lime' is a selected cultivar known for a pale lime-to-cream central leaf field framed by darker green margins, producing a frosted/icy lime look. This visual novelty (not a formal registered cultivar in available records) is prized by collectors and buyers who want a brighter, high-contrast houseplant without changing standard Aglaonema care.
What light does Aglaonema 'Arctic Lime' need to keep its pale variegation?
expand_more
Bright, indirect light best preserves the pale lime/cream contrast in Aglaonema 'Arctic Lime'. It tolerates lower light but variegation often loses intensity in very low conditions, so place it near a north‑ or east‑facing window or filtered light spot to retain the frosty appearance.
Is Aglaonema 'Arctic Lime' safe around pets and children?
expand_more
No — Aglaonema 'Arctic Lime' is toxic if ingested. Like other Aglaonema, it contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals that can cause oral irritation, drooling, vomiting and swelling. Keep the plant out of reach of pets and children and seek veterinary or medical advice if ingestion occurs.
How does Aglaonema 'Arctic Lime' grow over time and what does that mean for care?
expand_more
Aglaonema 'Arctic Lime' grows as a compact, clumping evergreen from short cane-like stems, opening new leaves near the centre to form a rounded, multi-stemmed crown. Plants often become wider with basal shoots as they mature, so expect occasional repotting or division for space and to maintain a tidy indoor habit.
What should I expect from the 'Medium - P12 H25' size when ordering?
expand_more
Expect a medium retail plant typically sold as 'Medium - P12 H25' in a 12 cm pot and shown at around 25 cm height. Variegation and exact leaf pattern can vary between nursery specimens, so individual plants may not match photos exactly — the overall pale lime/cream centre with darker margins is the characteristic to expect.

The Aglaonema Red Zircon arrived safely and was well packed. The plant is healthy and pretty, but the color is quite different from the product photo. In the photo it looked more pink, while in real life it has more red spots and looks less pink than expected. It is still a nice plant, but not exactly what I expected from the listing photo.
Geniale und gedunde Pflanze
Plant arrived promptly and in very good condition. Was true to the photograph on the website.
Lovely, healthy plant, slightly smaller that expected, though
Everything is fine.

Pianta sana, imballata con cura. Ordine evaso celermente. Spedizione arrivata in poco tempo in Italia. Ottimo negozio.
Diese wunderschöne Aglaonema durfte bei mir einziehen und treibt schon ein neues Blatt aus. Zwei der älteren Blätter sind gelb geworden, aber sonst entwickelt sie sich super
Muy sana y grande
