4" Alocasia baginda ‘Dragon Scale’

Alocasia ‘Dragon Scale’ is one of the most admired jewel Alocasias, named for its thick, sculpted leaves that resemble the scales of a mythical dragon. The foliage has a silvery-green surface with darker green veining and a subtle shimmer, giving it a bold, dimensional look that stands out beautifully in any tropical plant collection.

Your Alocasia arrives well-established in a 4" pot. Each plant is grown with care in our licensed Florida nursery to ensure it arrives healthy, well-rooted, and ready to thrive in your space. Provide bright, indirect light, steady warmth, and moderate humidity, and it will reward you with strong growth and dramatic, textured foliage—a true collector favorite among Alocasias.

4 inch

☀️ Light: Bright, indirect light
💨 Humidity: Aroids thrive in higher humidity (60%+). Average household humidity can work for acclimated plants, but they’ll appreciate extra moisture from a humidifier or grouping with other plants.
💧 Watering: Most aroids do not want to stay constantly moist (Alocasias, in particular, are prone to root rot). Allow the soil to dry between waterings. Water thoroughly, then let excess drain. Reduce frequency in cooler months.
🌡️ Temperature: Prefers warm conditions (65–85°F). Protect from drafts and cold air.
🪴 Soil & Potting: Use a well-draining, airy aroid mix. Always pot with drainage.
⚠️ Pet Safety: Toxic if ingested by pets or children.
