Description
Alocasia Dragon Scale has a distinct vein pattern and looks awesome. Native to Borneo, Southeast Asia, this cultivated variety of Alocasia is relatively easy to take care of. If you decide to keep one, here are things you need to know:
- Bright indirect sunlight
- Between 55 and 80ºF, best around 70%+ humidity
- Water once the top 2-3 inches of soil feels dry
- Toxic if ingested and can cause dermatitis on skin contact. Take great care with pets and children.
- A chunky, well-draining potting mix is essential. A mix of equal parts perlite, orchid mix, and coco coir works well.
- Grows up to 3′ tall
