How to care for Agave Blue
Agave Blue enjoys some direct sun, but they'll also do well in bright, indirect light. It is best to place this plant somewhere where it will receive some nice morning sun, or a couple hours of afternoon sun, and then indirect light the rest of the day.
Agave Blue will do best in bright light. A nice bright place inside your home would be on the window sill or a stool that is right next to a window, either with or without blinds, depending on if the plant can handle sun. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.
Agave Blue likes the soil to be completely dry before the next watering. This can take up to 4 weeks in an average home environment but it will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions. For them, it's always safer to underwater or water when you see signs of lack of water (i.e. wrinkly or soft leaves). Water a little more often in the warmer months.
Agave Blue's humidity requirement is low, so do not mist them or put them in a terrarium.
Agave Blue should be potted in a well-draining soil mix to prevent waterlogged conditions. It's a slow-growing plant, so it doesn't need frequent repotting. If grown indoors, it's best placed in a location with plenty of room, as it can grow quite large.
Agave Blue is moderately toxic and can cause some adverse reactions when ingested so it is best to not let your pets eat it, which we advise for all plants in general. The severity of the reaction will depend on how much of the plant is ingested but, if you know your pet typically does not eat your plants, this plant will be suitable for your home..

Use a well-draining soil mix specifically designed for succulents or cacti. Provide a pot with adequate drainage holes to avoid water retention. Fertilize sparingly—once a year in spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer formulated for succulents. Agave Victoriae-Reginae generally does not need frequent repotting due to its slow growth rate.

How to care for Aglaonema Pictum Tricolor
Aglaonema Pictum Tricolor should not be in a position to see the sun directly, although early morning or late evening sun is fine. Filtered sunlight through a sheer curtain is best and most homes are comprised primarily of indirect sunlight. The best spot for them is where they do not see the sun during the majority of the day but still get bright, indirect light.
Aglaonema Pictum Tricolor will thrive in bright light, but also can tolerate medium light. A good medium-light place in your home would be in the middle of a room that has a regular size window. They can be placed anywhere between the middle of the room and the window. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.
Aglaonema Pictum Tricolor needs to be watered when the top half of the soil is dry to the touch. That usually takes about 1 week in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions, but it's always safer to underwater or give the soil a check before you water again. Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.
Aglaonema Pictum Tricolor likes a high humidity environment, give them a mist daily or as often as possible. Alternatively, you can put them around a humidifier. Although they won't die if they don't receive enough humidity, their leaves may have some dry, crunchy, or yellow edges.
Reduce your watering frequency in the fall and winter months because Aglaonema Pictum Tricolor will be dormant, meaning it won't need as much moisture to support growth. If you mist your plant daily, or keep a humidifier around, this will really help the health of the leaves.

Albuca Spiralis humidity requirement is low, so do not mist them or put them in a terrarium.
When Albuca Spiralis produces flower stalks in spring, it often causes the tips of the leaves to brown. This is a natural occurrence. If you prefer to prevent leaf tip browning, simply remove the flower stalks as soon as they start to grow. Also be cautious of overwatering, as the bulbs are prone to rot in soggy soil. During the plant's dormant period, usually in the summer, water very little.
Albuca Spiralis is moderately toxic and can cause some adverse reactions when ingested so it is best to not let your pets eat it, which we advise for all plants in general. The severity of the reaction will depend on how much of the plant is ingested but, if you know your pet typically does not eat your plants, this plant will be suitable for your home..

They like the soil to be relatively dry before the next watering. That usually takes about 2 weeks in an average home environment.

Water more often in the warmer months.
They will do well in average humidity environments but will appreciate a little bit of humidity if provided, give them a mist daily or get a humidifier.
It is more drought tolerant, bug resistant, and is more adaptable to warmer temperatures than its “English” counterpart. Feel free to trim up long runners and repot them back into your plant to keep it looking bushy and full. Use sharp, clean scissors and carefully cut just below a leaf node, then remove the leaf at that node and plant that part of the stem, as that is where the roots will form.

Filtered sunlight through a sheer curtain is best and most homes are comprised primarily of indirect sunlight. The best spot for them is where they do not see the sun during the majority of the day but still get bright, indirect light.
They will thrive in bright light, but also can tolerate medium light. A good medium-light place in your home would be in the middle of a room that has a regular size window. They can be placed anywhere between the middle of the room and the window. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.
They need to be watered when the top half of the soil is dry to the touch. That usually takes about 1 week in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions, but it's always safer to underwater or give the soil a check before you water again. Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.
They like a high humidity environment, give them a mist daily or as often as possible. Alternatively, you can put them around a humidifier. Although they won't die if they don't receive enough humidity, their leaves may have some dry, crunchy, or yellow edges.
During the plant’s dormancy in the winter months, where its growth slows significantly and it is prone to leaf loss, move it to somewhere warm and bright, while reducing your watering until it starts growing again in spring. If it has become root bound, repot the plant in the spring by planting it into a pot one size up.
This plant is moderately toxic and can cause some adverse reactions when ingested so it is best to not let your pets eat it, which we advise for all plants in general. The severity of the reaction will depend on how much of the plant is ingested but, if you know your pet typically does not eat your plants, this plant will be suitable for your home..
