☀️LIGHT REQUIREMENTS: Alocasia ‘Dragon’s Breath’ prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its striking foliage and strong growth. It thrives in locations near a north or east-facing window, or where it receives filtered sunlight through sheer curtains. Too much direct sunlight can cause leaf scorching, while too little light can lead to leggy growth and a loss of vibrancy in the leaves. Although it can tolerate some dappled shade, consistent exposure to moderate to bright indirect light produces the best results.
💧WATERING: This Alocasia enjoys consistently moist soil but is sensitive to overwatering. It’s important to allow the top inch of the soil to dry out slightly between waterings, especially during its active growing season in spring and summer. Reduce watering frequency in fall and winter when the plant’s growth slows. Always use well-draining soil and a pot with drainage holes to prevent root rot, and consider using distilled or rainwater, as Alocasias can be sensitive to minerals and chemicals in tap water. Maintaining high humidity also helps prevent leaf browning and promotes healthy growth.
🐾 PET FRIENDLY: No. Toxic to animals.
