🌿 Alocasia 'Silver Dragon' (Jewel Alocasia)
Alocasia 'Silver Dragon' is one of the most coveted jewel Alocasias, known for its compact size and extraordinary foliage. The thick, silver-toned leaves have a textured, almost armored surface with dark green veining that gives them a 3D, dragon-scale effect. Perfect for terrariums or small-space collections, this plant delivers dramatic detail in a small, easy-to-display package.
🪴Exact Plant - You will receive the exact plant in the photo.
⚠️ Note on Natural Variation, Algae & Growing Conditions
Each Silver Dragon may show minor differences in leaf shape and veining pattern, but all are matched for quality, structure, and size.
Shipped in a Fluval and perlite mix, which enhances root health and reduces transplant shock. You may see green algae in the substrate - this is a harmless side effect of high humidity and will not impact plant health.
🌡️ Grown in controlled conditions at 70-75°F and 70-75% humidity, this plant should be slowly acclimated to regular household humidity and temperature over 5-7 days for best results.
🛠️ Care Instructions
Light:
Bright, indirect light is best. Avoid direct sun, which can damage the delicate foliage.
Water:
If kept in the Fluval/perlite mix, place in a self-watering container or above a shallow reservoir of nutrient-enriched water. This setup allows for consistent moisture through bottom wicking and helps prevent overwatering.
Humidity:
Prefers 60-75% humidity. If your space is dry, use a dome, humidifier, or slow acclimation method to avoid shock.
Temperature:
Ideal range is 70-80°F. Keep away from cold drafts or sudden temperature changes.
Soil (if repotting):
When moving out of the Fluval/perlite mix, use a chunky, well-draining aroid mix (e.g., coco coir, perlite, and bark).
Fertilizer:
Apply a balanced liquid fertilizer at ¼-½ strength once every 4-6 weeks during the growing season.
Dormancy Note:
Growth may slow in winter or under lower light. During this time, reduce watering and stop fertilizing until active growth resumes.
