Aglaonema commutatum

Aglaonema commutatum is an accepted Aglaonema species from Central Malesia, with narrow, firm leaves marked by pale bars along the side veins. The leaves are oblong to lance-shaped, and young plants hold them on upright stems.

Older stems can lengthen and lean over time, so mature plants may sit wider in the pot than young stock. The pale bars stay tied to the side-vein structure while the stem gradually extends as the plant develops.

Aglaonema commutatum with barred leaves

  • Central Malesia: A wet-tropical Araceae species with narrow leaves and pale side-vein markings.
  • Leaf shape: Narrow oblong to lance-shaped leaves create a slim, elongated outline.
  • Pattern: Pale markings usually appear as broken bars along the primary side veins.
  • Texture: The leaves have a firm, slightly leathery surface suited to warm, stable indoor conditions.
  • Growth habit: Young plants grow upright, while older stems can become more leaning or decumbent.
  • Forest background: The species is native to wet tropical forest regions in Central Malesia.

Stem development in Aglaonema commutatum

Aglaonema commutatum forms elongated leaves with visible side-vein patterning. The pale markings sit within the natural vein structure and give individual leaves a broken striped pattern.

In a pot, the stem can gradually lengthen and lean as the plant ages. A stable planting depth and a substrate with enough air around the roots keep the lower stem area firmer, especially when the plant is grown warm and evenly moist.

Care for Aglaonema commutatum

  • Light: Bright filtered light helps avoid stretched stems while limiting scorch risk on pale leaf markings.
  • Water: Water when the upper layer has started to dry, then let excess water drain fully from the pot.
  • Substrate: Use a loose houseplant or aroid mix with bark, coir and mineral drainage for air around the roots.
  • Temperature: Keep the plant warm; cold wet substrate can damage roots and mark the lower leaves.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity helps new leaves open cleanly, especially during warm active growth.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth, as salt build-up can mark leaf edges and fine root tips.
  • Potting: Choose a pot that balances the stem base without holding a heavy, wet mass around the roots.

Common issues with Aglaonema commutatum

  • Yellow lower leaves: Check for wet substrate, cold roots or a pot that stays heavy for too long after watering.
  • Brown dry patches: Move the plant away from direct sun or cold glass if leaf surfaces become marked.
  • Dark leaf spots: Improve airflow, remove badly affected leaves and keep water from sitting on the leaf surface.
  • Soft stem base: Inspect the roots and lower stem if the pot smells sour or the plant leans suddenly.
  • Pests: Check petiole bases and the underside of leaves for mealybugs, scale and mites.

Safety information for Aglaonema commutatum

Aglaonema commutatum contains calcium oxalate crystals that can irritate the mouth, throat and digestive tract if chewed. Keep it away from pets and children who may bite leaves or stems.

Botanical background of Aglaonema commutatum

The genus name Aglaonema combines Greek roots linked to brightness and thread-like stamens. Aglaonema commutatum was published by Heinrich Wilhelm Schott in 1856, and the species epithet commutatum comes from Latin wording linked to change or alteration.

Aglaonema commutatum develops narrow barred leaves on stems that can lean as they lengthen.

Stable, attractive, and easy to turn into a table with your choice of top
Size: side table leg
The X-shape of the table legs - constructed with solid metal flanges, T-joints, X-joints and 1-inch diameter pipes - provides a strong and sturdy base for a wood top. The legs have adjustable feet pads to prevent scratches and ensure stability. Assembly of the legs is relatively simple (the instructions are clear) but you will need your own tools to attach a top. The industrial design is especially well suited to rec room or finished basement use. I am adding a 28" diameter raw edge slab of wood from a recently felled tree as the top and it is very attractive. (Photo unavailable because after I made certain it would work I sent the slab out for drying and finishing.) If you want a custom table and have a particular piece of wood you want to use, these legs are an excellent choice.

Very nice kit: Beware it is NOT heavy duty plumbing pipe though!
Size: side table leg
I want to give this kit a high rating, but I need to address the "truth in advertising" bit since there may be an important disconnect between what you think you are getting and what actually comes in the box. Black plumbing used for shelving or table legs is part of an important niche in interior design. I like the industrial loft look myself and have a variety of glass, steel, and masonry elements in my home. This kit fits that look and provides plenty of "strength" for most domestic uses, like shelves or coffee tables. But they are NOT "industrial pipe" or "maximum durability pipe." Note the phrase "cast iron finish feet," which together with the other claims might lead you to think these are cast plumbing fittings. They are NOT! The feet and flanges feel like electrical conduit fittings, and the pipe sections are likely aluminum. They might be electrical or they might be multi-use, lightweight pipe. While all this might lead you to think that you're getting a truly retro, heavy-duty pipe kit made of black plumbing pipe, you are not. But, does it matter? Depends. I find the lighter pipe's smooth finish a nice "tone-down" from the rough plumbing look. All together, this kit provides plenty of strength for most furniture and the rustic pipe look, but with a nicer, lighter finish. To me that is a plus--this is a very nice kit and costs less that if you'd pieced it together from real plumbing parts (I priced it out to compare), and looks retro but cleaner. I knew what to expect because while I got this kit free on Vine, I had purchased a nearly identical kit from another seller last year. So, I'm giving it 5 stars for what it actually is and for the price, JUST BE AWARE THE NARRATIVE IS MISLEADING. Which is unfortunate because just like some people might want the heavier pipe, I'm betting more would be attracted to the look with a cleaner, lighter feel.

Strong legs, somewhat industrial but trendy also
Size: side table leg
Good legs, some what utilitarian or industrial, they are strong as they are made out of pipe, and assembly is fairly easy once you get the idea of how it goes together. They are roughly 1.5 feet across maybe a bit less adjustable height on each leg, if you have wood floors you may want to put a pad under each leg as they are full metal pipes. Pretty interesting idea and does not cost much.

Pretty good, take your time and install it well
Size: side table leg
Materials are pretty solid, but once assembled it’s not as sturdy as you would think it should be since the material itself was solid, i say give them a chance, everything out there that’s similar is way over priced

Heavy duty legs for table.
Size: side table leg
Perfect legs for a table I am having made. I have an cottonwood slice. It's heavy and needed something substantial. These are perfect.
