Identifying a Ti Plant (Cordyline terminalis) vs. Aglaonema: Key Differences in Leaf Texture and Stem

Not an Aglaonema

Your plant’s leaves are thicker, stiffer, and lack the distinct midrib of Aglaonema.

Likely ID: Cordyline terminalis (Ti Plant)

Foliage resembles Aspidistra (Cast Iron Plant), but the woody stem confirms it’s a Cordyline.

Care Implication

Ti Plants need brighter light than Aglaonema and are less tolerant of low light. Adjust placement accordingly.
