New varieties of Aglaonema hybrids appear quite regularly. Many of them have not been bred for hardiness. Plant hybridizers often are most focused on leaf appearances rather than hardiness because appearance is what sells. I am not familiar with this hybrid, but it is much whiter than others and that suggests it will need more light than most other Aglaonemas, as Ken indicated.

I will be interested to learn if yours develops and maintains sturdy stems. Some of the newer varieties are thinner and weaker and become quote leggy. Keep us posted on yours.
