Alocasia Dragon Scale

Alocasia Dragon Scale – A Truly Majestic Alocasia

Alocasia Dragon Scale is one of the most sought-after Alocasias, and it’s easy to see why. Its thick, leathery leaves feature an incredible silvery-green surface with deep, dark green veining that resembles dragon skin – hence the name. This plant brings an otherworldly, fantasy-like beauty to any indoor space and is a must-have for collectors and aroid lovers alike.

Already Growing in Pon

This Alocasia Dragon Scale is established and actively growing in Pon, a premium semi-hydroponic substrate that promotes healthy root development and easier watering routines. Simply treat it like any other soil-grown plant—monitor moisture, provide humidity, and enjoy the benefits of cleaner, low-maintenance care.

Plant Care

Water: In Pon, water when the top layer starts to dry—ensure you’re flushing occasionally to prevent mineral build-up.

Temperature: Ideal range is 18°C – 29°C. Keep away from cold drafts or sudden temperature drops.
Fertiliser: Use a quality fertiliser linked to GT Foliage Focus
