🐉 Alocasia 'Dragon Scale' is nothing short of mythical in appearance — a rare and stunning variety admired for its deeply textured, metallic-looking leaves that truly live up to its name. The foliage resembles the scales of a dragon, with a silvery green surface contrasted by dark emerald veins and a subtle shimmer when the light hits just right. The underside of the leaves often shows a softer, reddish tone, adding depth and drama to its look 🍃.
🌸 While the plant can produce modest, pale yellow-green spathe-and-spadix blooms, flowering is quite rare indoors and typically occurs only under ideal conditions, usually in late spring or early summer. Most collectors grow this Alocasia purely for its extraordinary foliage, which is evergreen and consistently captivating.
📏 Compact and elegant, Alocasia 'Dragon Scale' typically grows to around 40 to 60 cm tall at maturity. Its upright, architectural form makes it perfect for decorating a desk, shelf, or plant pedestal where its intricate leaf patterns can be fully appreciated.
💧 This plant enjoys moderate, consistent watering — the soil should be kept lightly moist but never soggy. Let the top layer dry out slightly before watering again. It’s sensitive to both overwatering and underwatering, so balance is key. High humidity and good air circulation help mimic its natural tropical environment and keep it thriving 💦.
☀️ Alocasia 'Dragon Scale' prefers bright, indirect light, avoiding direct sun which can scorch its gorgeous leaves. It enjoys warmth and stable conditions, so it’s best to protect it from cold drafts or sudden temperature changes. With the right care and a bit of patience, this plant is surprisingly resilient and incredibly rewarding to grow 🌞.
⚠️ Note: Alocasia is toxic if ingested. It’s best to keep Alocasia plants out of reach of children and pets, and to wear gloves when pruning or repotting 🌿🧤.
🪴 Format: Upon delivery, the plant has a height of approximately 25 cm (measured including the pot). It is supplied in a nursery pot with a diameter of 12 cm.
