Foliage that looks almost unreal.
Dragon Scale Alocasia earns its name from thick, heavily textured leaves that resemble overlapping scales. Deep green veining contrasts against silvery green foliage, creating incredible depth and texture that becomes even more dramatic as the leaves mature.
Its relatively compact growth makes Dragon Scale an excellent choice for collectors who want statement foliage without a giant plant. Give it bright, indirect light, warmth, consistent moisture, and good humidity to keep new growth coming.
Light: Bright indirect light
Water: Allow the top 1–2 inches of soil to begin drying before watering; avoid soggy soil
Difficulty: Moderate
Growth: Upright and compact
Pet info: Keep out of pets’ reach
What you’ll receive
One Dragon Scale Alocasia (Alocasia baginda ‘Dragon Scale’) in the nursery-pot size selected. Because every plant is naturally different, height, leaf count, leaf size, texture, and coloration will vary.
Please note: Alocasias can respond to changes in environment or shipping by yellowing or dropping an older leaf. New growth under proper conditions is the best indicator of an actively growing plant. Decorative pots and accessories are not included unless specifically stated. See our Live Arrival Guarantee for details.
