Alocasia Dragon Scale, formally named Alocasia baginda ‘Dragon Scale’, has an incredible, veined texture that, imaginatively, can be said to resemble dragon scales. The leaves play their part: they are tough and pliable, and even have a hardened topside.
***If you have an animal that likes to eat plants then keep this one in a place where they won't get to it! Alocasia can cause mouth watering and GI problems for pets***
LIGHT:
Thrives in bright, well-lit conditions, however direct sunlight should be avoided as it will scorch the leaves.
WATER:
The Alocasia's soil should be kept moist with warm water. Do not allow the soil to overly dry-out but be wary not to overwater. Little and often is a good approach.
HUMIDITY:
Requires an environment with above average humidity. Mist frequently for best results. If it needs a boost, pop it near the shower or in the kitchen for a while.
