🌿 The Aglaonema 'Mahanakorn Hot Pink' is a captivating and colorful plant that adds a pop of vibrant pink to your indoor space. In a 2.5" pot!

Here's a care guide to help you nurture this beauty: 😊

1. **Light Requirements**: 
   - This plant thrives in bright, indirect light. 🪴 Direct sunlight can cause leaf burn, while too little light may dull the vibrant pink hues. If possible, place it near a window with filtered light. 🌞

2. **Watering**: 
   - Water your Aglaonema when the top inch of soil feels dry. 💧 Be mindful not to overwater, as the plant is prone to root rot. Ensure the pot has adequate drainage to prevent water accumulation.

3. **Humidity**: 
   - Aglaonema 'Mahanakorn Hot Pink' enjoys moderate to high humidity levels. 🌫️ Regular misting or using a humidifier can enhance humidity, especially in dry indoor environments.

4. **Temperature**: 
   - Maintain a warm environment between 65-80°F (18-27°C). 🏡 Protect the plant from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes to keep it healthy.

5. **Soil**:
   - Use a well-draining potting mix. A mixture designed for houseplants, with added perlite or orchid bark, can provide the aeration and drainage it needs. 🌱

6. **Fertilization**:
   - During the growing season (spring and summer), feed your plant every 4-6 weeks with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. 🌼 Reduce feeding during the fall and winter months when the plant's growth slows.

7. **Pruning**:
   - Remove any yellow or damaged leaves to encourage new growth and maintain the plant's appearance. ✂️ Pruning also helps redirect energy to healthier parts of the plant.

8. **Repotting**:
   - Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is slightly larger to give the roots room to grow. 🪴

9. **Common Pests**:
   - Inspect your plant regularly for pests like spider mites, mealybugs, and aphids. 🐛 Wipe the leaves with a damp cloth or use a gentle insecticidal soap if needed to prevent infestations.

The Aglaonema 'Mahanakorn Hot Pink' is an exquisite addition to any plant collection, delighting with its vibrant colors and easy-care nature. With the right care, it will continue to brighten your space with its stunning foliage!
