Alocasia ‘Dragon Scale Mint’
Alocasia ‘Dragon Scale Mint’ takes the incredible texture of a Dragon Scale and gives it a softer, almost frosted appearance. Its thick, deeply textured leaves feature the characteristic scale-like pattern of Dragon Scale, accented by minty green, silvery-green, and pale variegation that creates beautiful contrast against the darker veining.
The mint expression can range from subtle washes of lighter color to more pronounced marbling and patterned areas. As the plant sizes up, the combination of raised texture, defined veins, and cool-toned coloring becomes even more dramatic.
