β¨ Quick Care Tips:
π§ Water: Grown in pon in a self-watering pot, this plant prefers a consistent but controlled moisture supply. Keep a small amount of water in the reservoir and avoid overfilling the reservoir so the bottom isnβt sitting in water.
βοΈ Light: Bright, indirect light helps maintain crisp variegation and strong texture. Avoid harsh direct sun.
π« Humidity: Prefers 60β80% humidity for optimal leaf quality and steady growth.
π‘ Temps: Thrives between 18β26 Β°C. Sensitive to cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.
πͺ΄ Soil: Supplied in a self-watering pot using pon for consistent moisture and strong root development. Pon provides stable hydration while maintaining airflow around the roots. Alternatively, performs exceptionally well in our NPG Alocasia Formula, designed to provide the ideal balance of airflow, moisture retention, and structure for healthy root growth. A free-draining, airy aroid mix with bark and perlite can also be used.
π± NPG Tip:
Stable conditions are key with Dragon Scale forms. Consistent warmth, humidity, and controlled moisture help maintain bold variegation and enhance that signature scale-like texture as the plant matures.
