How to Care for Your Chinese Evergreen 'Silver Bay'

Place your 'Silver Bay' in a room with filtered, indirect light — it tolerates low light well, making it ideal for offices or bedrooms. Use a well-draining indoor potting mix and water when the top of the soil feels dry. This plant is drought-tolerant but appreciates consistent moisture for fuller growth.

It performs well in typical indoor humidity levels and requires little maintenance. Wipe the leaves occasionally to maintain their sheen and remove dust. Feed monthly during spring and summer with a general-purpose houseplant fertilizer for optimal growth.

Its slow-growing nature makes it easy to manage in a container or floor planter for years to come.
