Small Alocasia Dragon Scale

Also known as the Alocasia Baginda, this popular, fast-growing, rare plant is native to Eastern Borneo. With its strikingly unique, shiny light green leaves and contrasting dark green veins, the leaves appear to be popping out at you! This plant will leave a bold statement in any room and catch your attention every time you walk in!

Being that it’s from a tropical environment, it thrives in high temperatures, high humidity, moist soil, and bright indirect light and will grow up to 3 ft. tall, with a spread up to 6 ft. indoors. This makes them great to place on a desktop, bookcase, cubby, or small nook in your home that is well-lit but doesn’t get direct light. Over time this plant may drop some leaves, but don’t be alarmed, as this is just a natural occurrence in the plant’s lifecycle as the alocasias prefer to have fewer leaves that are really big, rather than a really full plant with leaves that can’t capture as much sun.
