Lovely baby plant
Review by RP on 11 Dec 2024 review stating Lovely baby plant
The plant arrived well wrapped and secured, the soil was really dry though and the plant looked very sad and droopy. Thankfully it just needed a good drink and recovered in just a matter of hours. So far it is doing really well and has been repotted after about 2 weeks. Can't wait to see this one grow and mature!

I got #gifted this Alocasia Dragon Scale in April from growtropicals, and she’s finally starting to mature! 🌱💚 Watching her transformation has been absolutely magical. The baby leaves on the Dragon Scale start off so soft and delicate, with a lighter, almost translucent green. As they grow, they develop that signature deep green color and those stunning, intricate patterns that truly resemble dragon scales. 🐉✨ The texture changes too – from smooth and fragile to a tough, almost leathery feel. It’s like witnessing nature’s magic unfold right before my eyes! Seeing these changes reminds me why I love plant care so much. Each stage is a new surprise and a new reason to appreciate their unique beauty. 🌿✨ Have you noticed similar transformations in your plants? . . . . . . . . . . . #alocasiadragonscale #alocasia #plantrehab #houseplant #aroidaddict #plantaddict #plantlover #houseplantuk

🌿 Plant Care Tips

Alocasia 'Dragon Scale' is a stunning cultivar of Alocasia baginda, renowned for its large, deeply veined leaves that resemble dragon scales. Native to Borneo, this plant is a true statement piece, with its striking foliage and majestic appearance. The name 'baginda' means princely or kingly, reflecting the regal nature of this plant. The leaf undersides are a pale, almost white green with distinctive red veining, adding to its extraordinary visual appeal.

Native to: Alocasia 'Dragon Scale' originates from the tropical forests of Borneo, where it thrives in humid, shaded environments.

Water: Water Alocasia 'Dragon Scale' little and often, ensuring the soil remains moist but not waterlogged. Consistent moisture is crucial, but avoid letting the plant sit in standing water to prevent root rot. Allow the top 2-3 cm of soil to dry slightly between waterings.

Light: This plant thrives in medium to bright, indirect or filtered light. It can tolerate lower light levels but grows best when provided with ample indirect light. A position near a south, east, or north-facing window with filtered sunlight is ideal.

Humidity: Alocasia 'Dragon Scale' will grow well outside of a terrarium or cabinet, but like all tropical plants, it thrives in higher humidity levels. Aim for humidity levels around 60% or higher. To achieve this, consider grouping it with other plants, misting it regularly, or placing it in a bathroom or kitchen where humidity levels are naturally higher.

Temperature: Maintain a warm environment for your Alocasia 'Dragon Scale', ideally between 18°C to 26°C. Protect it from cold drafts and avoid temperatures below 15°C to ensure healthy growth. Stable, warm conditions will help this tropical plant flourish indoors.
