Details

The Alocasia Dragon Scale Mint is a striking plant known for its metallic green leaves with silvery undertones and prominent, dark veining. Its unique texture and coloration give it an almost dragon-like appearance, making it a stunning statement piece for any indoor collection. Though it looks exotic, it’s relatively easy to care for once you understand its preferences.

Light: This Alocasia enjoys bright, indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can scorch its delicate leaves, while too little light will slow its growth and fade its color. A spot near a bright window with filtered light is ideal.

Water: The Dragon Scale Mint prefers consistently moist soil but never soggy. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can cause root rot, so ensure the pot has good drainage. In winter or in lower light conditions, reduce watering frequency slightly to match its slower growth.

Pot size: 7cm

Steve and Lewis are so incredibly helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. I always leave with a smile on my face and a bag full of really high quality plants and plant related paraphernalia. They only stock the best products, and both shops are 100% good vibes. I’d never shop for my houseplant needs anywhere else. Thank you both!!

The guys at Urban Tropicana always put themselves out and try to help, even though I live hundreds of miles away. If they have a sale or rescue boxes they make sure I can buy some as their plants are always of the highest quality and I really appreciate their customer service, second to none! One of these days I will get to see the fabulous plants in their shops in person.
