Water
We recommend one heavy and deep watering once a week. An excellent way to tell when your plant has had enough to drink is when you can see water appear from the holes at the bottom of the pot.
Sunlight
The plants like indirect and moderate to bright light. The less light it has, the less growth you will see, but direct sunlight can burn the leaves. So, aim for a south-facing window… But move your greenie away from it!
Fertilizer
This greenie thrives with high-nitrogen fertilizers, though all-purpose fertilizer is also great. Make sure to feed them once every two weeks.

Soil
Nutrient-rich, moist peat soil is best for pink Dalmatian Aglaonemas. Make sure it's slightly acidic.
Pruning
These plants generally do not need pruning, but cutting back new foliage will help them to keep a rounder shape. If plants become too thin to hold their weight, cut stocks to the level of the soil, and they should grow back stronger.
Propagation
Propagation can be done through cuts. Remove larger sprouts with sufficient leaves by cutting them at the base of their stem. Place the cuts into a jar of water and in a warm place with plenty of indirect sunlight. Change the water regularly while waiting for a period of 6 weeks for roots to sprout. Afterward, follow the instructions listed in this article.

Pink Dalmatian Aglaeonemas can also be grown with seeds, which can take up to 60 days to germinate. Place the seeds slightly under the surface of a peat soil mix; prepare the seeds with a seed wash before and place the pot in indirect light afterward.
