Care Instructions

• Light Requirements: Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sun to prevent leaf scorch.
• Watering: Allow the top few centimetres of soil to dry before watering. Like other Jewel Alocasia, Alocasia baginda ‘Silver Dragon’ is sensitive to both prolonged dryness and consistently wet soil. Check moisture before watering.
• Soil: Use a well-draining mix to avoid root rot and allow for airflow around the roots.
• Temperature: Keep in warm indoor conditions above 15°C. Cooler temperatures may slow growth or result in temporary dormancy; growth resumes when conditions warm.
• Humidity: Tolerates standard indoor humidity but may show stronger leaf development with moderate humidity.
