    Alocasia ‘Dragon Scale Mint’

    Alocasia ‘Dragon Scale Mint’ is a highly sought-after Alocasia cultivar admired for its thick, sculptural leaves and striking mint-green coloration. The foliage has a pronounced, scale-like texture with deep veining that gives the plant a reptilian appearance, living up to its name. The lighter mint tones set this variety apart from standard Dragon Scale types, offering a softer yet still dramatic look that stands out in any plant collection.

    As a cultivated Alocasia variety, ‘Dragon Scale Mint’ shares the bold structure and tropical presence the genus is known for. Native Alocasia species originate from Southeast Asia, where they grow in warm, humid environments. With proper care, this plant develops strong foliage and becomes a statement piece suited for collectors and design-forward interiors.

    Sun Requirements ▾

    Bright, indirect light is ideal for Alocasia ‘Dragon Scale Mint’. Adequate light helps maintain strong leaf structure and colour, while direct sunlight should be avoided as it can scorch the foliage. Low light conditions may result in slower growth and reduced leaf quality. A bright room with filtered light provides the best balance.

    Watering Instructions ▾

    Watering should be done when the top portion of the soil begins to dry out. Alocasia ‘Dragon Scale Mint’ prefers evenly moist soil but does not tolerate waterlogged conditions. Overwatering can lead to root rot, while allowing the soil to dry out completely may cause leaf drop or dormancy. Watering frequency should be reduced during periods of slower growth.

    Care Tips ▾

    Alocasia ‘Dragon Scale Mint’ prefers a warm, stable environment with moderate to higher humidity and good airflow. It performs best in a well-draining aroid soil mix that retains moisture without becoming compacted. Consistency is key with Alocasia, as sudden temperature changes, cold drafts, or dry air can cause stress. This plant benefits from being placed in a steady location and left undisturbed once established.
