Add a tropical touch to your home with Alocasia ‘Dragon Scale’! This rare and beautiful houseplant boasts large, leathery, shiny green leaves with a vein pattern that makes them look like the skin of a dragon! Lush and contemporary, ‘Dragon Scale’ will make a lovely addition to any home, either as a single specimen or contrasting with other varieties in a houseplant collection. Ideal to grow in areas of dappled shade indoors. Ultimate height: 50cm. Spread: 40cm. Please note: As with many houseplants, Alocasia ‘Dragon Scale’ is harmful to pets and children if ingested. If you believe your pet has consumed a poisonous plant, then seek veterinary attention immediately. Take a sample of the plant with you. Place your Alocasia in a bright spot with plenty of natural light but not in direct sunlight. This rainforest plant enjoys humidity, so a bathroom or kitchen windowsill is ideal. Avoid draughts and rotate occasionally to ensure even growth. Water regularly as the top of the compost begins to dry out, keeping the root zone moist but not saturated. The plant will also enjoy being misted. Feed monthly during spring and summer with a balanced liquid houseplant feed. Reduce watering in winter, allowing the top of the compost to mostly dry out. Trim off faded leaves from the base. Plant height and spread are seasonal; therefore, we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only. Please note: This product cannot be delivered outside the United Kingdom. Product specifications: Position: Dappled Shade. Height Up To 50cm. Spread up to 40cm. Supplied as 1x 13cm Potted Alocasia Plant. Images shown are for guidance only of the expected results from plants upon maturity. Different growing conditions might vary the results.
