This tissue culture (TC) plantlet is an exciting opportunity for collectors to grow this exceptional variety from its earliest stage.

Notable Features:

  • Unique Aurea Variegation: A rare mutation adds golden-yellow splashes to the iconic silver foliage.

  • Compact Growth Habit: Perfect for small spaces, terrariums, or as an eye-catching accent plant.
  • Tissue Culture Origin: Offers a chance to grow a highly sought-after variety, though variegation expression may vary as it matures.

Interesting Facts:

  • Alocasia baginda 'Silver Dragon' is native to Southeast Asia and thrives in warm, humid environments.
  • Its thick, water-retentive leaves help it withstand brief drought periods, but it prefers consistent moisture.
  • The aurea variegation is light-dependent—brighter indirect light encourages more intense golden hues.

Humidity Needs:

Thrives in moderate to high humidity (60% or more). If grown in drier conditions, use a humidifier, pebble tray, or keep it near other plants to create a humid microclimate.

Important Note on Tissue Culture Plants:

Tissue culture plantlets are young and delicate, requiring gradual acclimation to household conditions. Growth rates and variegation patterns will develop over time and may vary based on environmental factors.

Shipping Note:

Tissue culture plantlets are not acclimated before shipping and need time to adjust upon arrival. While we take great care in packaging, minor imperfections may occur in transit. With proper care, your Alocasia baginda 'Silver Dragon' Aurea will develop into a truly extraordinary collector’s piece.
