How to prune aglaonema rotundum

Any time, as needed. Snip dead or damaged leaves cleanly at the petiole base with sterile scissors. If a stem is mechanically damaged, cut it back to a node to encourage a replacement shoot.

Rarely — remove dead growth as it appears. Aglaonema rotundum needs almost no pruning. Its rounded, glossy leaves grow in a low rosette and the plant rarely becomes leggy. Remove any dead, yellowing, or damaged leaves at the base as they appear. No corrective pruning is usually needed unless a stem is damaged.
