A very attractive form of Alocasia producing beautiful ornate leaves up to 20cm long and fully grown at 40cm. Its highly textured leaves resemble what some think dragon scales might look like. They are well suited for indoors as they require warmer conditions. With a little pruning they can be kept small and compact for years. To keep a plant compact it must be allowed to grow to a reasonable size and the central growth must be removed; this will force the plant to cluster with much smaller plantlets. This can be done every year or two.
Allow potting mix to almost dry out between waterings. Keep in a brightly lit room away from direct sunlight. This plant is toxic to humans and pets.
