☀️ Care Guide
💡 Light
Thrives in bright indirect light. Gentle morning sun may be tolerated, but harsh direct afternoon sunlight can scorch the foliage.
💧 Water & Humidity
Keep soil consistently lightly moist but never soggy. Allow the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry slightly between waterings. High humidity levels above 50% are strongly recommended for best growth and leaf quality.
🌱 Soil
Use a chunky, airy aroid mix with excellent drainage. A combination of potting soil, orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir works beautifully.
🌡️ Temperature
Prefers warm tropical conditions between 65°F–85°F. Avoid exposing the plant to temperatures below 60°F.
🍃 Growth Habit
Upright tropical grower with large sculptural foliage and thick textured stems. Plants become increasingly dramatic with maturity.
⚠️ Pet Safety
Like other Elephant Ear varieties, Alocasia ‘Golden Dragon’ is considered toxic if ingested by pets or humans. Please keep out of reach of curious cats, dogs, and small children.
