Alocasia 'Silver Dragon'

A very attractive form of Alocasia which produces beautiful ornate leaves up to 20cm long and folly grown at 30cm. They are well suited for indoors as they grow well in low light and are great for pots and larger planters. When small, they make amazing plants in terrariums and with a little pruning 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.
