Alocasia Pink Dragon’

Description

Bright pink stems. Iconic leaf shape. Waxy leathery texture. Silvery veining. Purple underside. Need we say more? The Alocasia ‘Pink Dragon’ is a strikingly ornamental plant that looks beautiful from every angle.

WATERING

In S/S water when 30% of the top soil has dried out. In A/W allow top soil to dry out 70%. Avoid watering too close to the stem of the plant as it is fleshy and can be susceptible to stem rot.

LIGHT REQUIREMENTS

Bright, indirect. This Alocasia likes a lot of light but nothing too scorching. A West or East facing window is perfect, if south facing just watch out on those very sunny days.

FEED

Use a houseplant fertiliser every 2 – 4 weeks from April – October.

REPOTTING

Repot roughly every 1-1.5 years when there has been active growth. Use a well draining house plant compost with added draining medium like perlite or grit.
