Homalomena Selby (Camouflage)

Homalomenas are closely related to Aglaonemas and are part of the Aroid family.  They are native to tropical Asia and China, where they are clumping evergreen perennials with large, flat, heart or spade shaped leaves.

The name "Homalomena" apparently derives from a mistranslated Malayan name, homalos, meaning flat and mene meaning moon.  Another interesting fact about Homalomenas is that they generally have a strong smell of anise.

Keep your Homalomena thriving by following these simple care instructions!
 Place in a bright, indirect light and water, generally, once a week, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Planters with drainage will help prevent over watering. 

Not only are Homalomenas beautiful and easy to care for, they thrive in a number of settings and are one of the top air purifiers out there!
