How to prune aglaonema legacy

Spring for reshaping; tidy-up any time of year. Snap or cut yellowing petioles cleanly at the base. Cut flower stems before they fully open if foliage display is the priority. Leggy canes can be cut back to 10–15 cm above the soil — stumps resprout reliably.

As needed; major reshaping rarely needed. Aglaonema 'Legacy' requires minimal pruning. Remove yellowing lower leaves and any flower stalks that appear — the blooms are inconspicuous and take energy from the foliage. The plant rarely becomes unruly indoors. If it does grow leggy over many years, a stem cutback to a node in spring will reinvigorate it.
