Description
The Alocasia Silver Dragon is a tropical houseplant that has stunning heart-shaped, thick foliage. The light silver-green shade of the leaves and the highly textured dark green venation set the silver dragon apart. The leaves are velvety to the touch and can grow up to 15cm in length and 7 or 8cm in width. The pronounced veins give the leaves an appearance that reminds one of dragon scales, hence the name. The plant prefers partial sun exposure with well-drained soil.
