Troubleshooting
Aglaonema Pink Dalmatian problems — and how to fix them
Aglaonema Pink Dalmatian (Aglaonema 'Pink Dalmatian') is generally forgiving once you match its basics, but a few issues come up again and again. Here is what each one looks like, why it happens, and the fix.
Fading pink spots
Low light reduces the dalmatian speckling; move to brighter indirect light to restore the freckled pattern.
Yellowing leaves
Most often overwatering and soggy roots; let the soil dry further between waterings and verify good drainage.
Brown crispy edges
Low humidity or salts from tap water and fertiliser; raise humidity, use filtered water and flush the soil periodically.
Leaf scorch or bleaching
Direct sun on the variegated leaves causes pale burnt patches; diffuse the light with a sheer curtain.
