The present investigation “In vitro propagation of Aglaonema (Aglaonema commutatum), was undertaken to identify suitable media combinations for in vitro propagation of Aglaonema. The mother plant of Aglaonema was collected from Mauli Hitech Nursery, Solu, Tal.Khed, Dist.Pune. The nodal explants were initiated on MS media with 3% sucrose, 8gm Agar fortified with different concentration of BA and NAA (3.0, 0.5+2.5, 1.0+2.0, 1.5+1.5, 2.0+1.0 mg/l) respectively. After four weeks of inoculations it was observed that MS media supplemented with 1.0 mg/l BA + 2.0 mg/l NAA gives best result with 80% initiation. MS media supplemented with 4.0 mg/l BA + 1.0 mg/l NAA was found to be most suitable for shoot multiplication i.e. average 3 shoots per bottle. MS media supplemented with 0.5 mg/l IBA + 0.25 mg/l NAA was found to be most suitable for rooting i.e. average 5 roots per explants. Thus, the nodal explant of Aglaonema can be effectively used for the in vitro propagation
