Chinese Evergreen 'Ruby Garuda'

Chinese Evergreen Ruby Garuda is one of the most striking color-forward plants in the Chinese Evergreen family. Its broad, glossy leaves are a deep, lush green dramatically flushed with rich ruby red tones that seem to glow from within. It grows in a full, upright rosette form and is one of the easiest large-leafed plants to keep looking its best.

Good for beginners? Yes. Chinese Evergreen is one of the most forgiving and adaptable houseplants available. It tolerates lower light, inconsistent watering, and average home conditions without complaint.

Safe for cats and dogs? Chinese Evergreen is toxic to pets if ingested. Keep out of reach of cats and dogs.

Light needs: Medium to bright indirect light keeps the ruby tones most vivid. It tolerates lower light better than most red-leafed plants but the color intensity reduces in dimmer conditions. Avoid direct sun which can bleach and scorch the leaves.

Care at a glance: Water when the top inch of soil is dry. Feed monthly in spring and summer. Wipe leaves occasionally to keep them glossy and vibrant. Avoid cold drafts and temperatures below 60°F.
