Caring for Alocasia plants;
- Bright, indirect light is best for Alocasia Silver Dragon. Direct sunlight can scorch its delicate leaves.
- If the light is too low, the plant may become leggy and lose its vibrancy.
- Water regularly, but ensure the soil is allowed to dry out between waterings.
- Avoid overwatering: The Alocasia Silver Dragon is prone to root rot, so let the top 1-2 inches of soil dry out before watering.
- In winter, when the plant is not actively growing, reduce watering.
- Alocasia Silver Dragon thrives in high humidity.
- Consider placing the plant in a humid room, using a humidifier, or setting up a pebble tray with water to boost moisture around the plant.
- The ideal temperature range is between 65°F to 80°F (18°C to 27°C).
- Keep the plant away from cold drafts or sudden temperature changes, as they prefer stable warmth.6. Fertilizing
- Feed your Alocasia Silver Dragon with a balanced liquid fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring and summer).
- Avoid fertilizing in the fall and winter when the plant is resting.
