This is my first aglaonema plant so I’m not really familiar with them, but it’s been growing kind of weird lately and I want to know if it’s normal or if I need to prune the side shoots off? I wasn’t expecting it to send up all the little spikes either! Lol I just thought maybe you wanted to see the top 🤪
It’s how they spread and multiply. They’re babies, you can leave them or separate them out and propagate.

0 likesHas it been repotted since coming from the store? Aglaonema are notorious for coming with hard plastic cages around their roots that eventually kill them.

1 likeHopefully it was already repotted and that’s why it’s so happy!
1 like We went through that this spring and I remember cutting them off and they are growing fast this summer and I have a few plants that need pruning every time you water them so I was just checking 😄
1 likeOMG! Yes! Mine had several root cages and still has not totally recovered from the repot 😞

It’s so happy and healthy!!! Way to go— mine is a struggle to care for, ever since my cat ate 60% of it in one sitting about a year ago 🤦🏼♀️
