Chinese Evergreen is a compact tropical evergreen perennial that has thick forest green lance-shaped foliage with attractive mint green splotched stripes and is commonly used as a houseplant. It rarely flowers as a houseplant, but if it does the creamy white spadix is enclosed by a pale green spathe in late summer or early fall. Grows best with good indirect sun and consistently moist well-drained soils.
