Alocasia baginda 'Silver Dragon'

Pale silver-grey panels contrast with a darker network of veins, giving 'Silver Dragon' its sculpted look. Thick, shield-like leaves rise in a compact upright group.

Newly opened leaves are softer and less clearly defined, with the mature silver effect developing as each blade hardens. Pale panels and raised veins remain the main feature year-round.

Silver colour and raised leaf texture

Rounded, shield-like blades have a peltate attachment, silver-grey interveinal panels and dark green veins. Their mature bullate surface is firm and matte. A short rhizome carries a compact group of upright leaves. The species reaches around 25–30 cm, with blades approximately 10–18 × 7–12 cm, although cultivated plants vary. 'Silver Dragon' is paler and cooler-toned than 'Dragon Scale'.

Species origin, name and botanical background

At species level, Alocasia baginda is associated with Borneo, especially eastern Kalimantan, and warm, humid tropical conditions. It belongs to the Araceae family. The name Alocasia derives from a- and Colocasia, while baginda is an Indonesian honorific connected with royal address.

Silver Dragon Alocasia care guide

  • Light: Provide screened window light or softly filtered morning sun. Bright, gentle light keeps leaves firm and silver-grey panels clearer.
  • Watering: Allow the top layer and upper mix to dry before watering thoroughly. The short rhizome needs even moisture, followed by a pot that drains well again.
  • Substrate: Use bark, coarse mineral particles and a moisture-retentive base. The mix should hold some moisture while still staying open around the roots.
  • Temperature: Keep the plant warm during active growth. Cold windowsills and draughts slow root activity.
  • Humidity: Maintain moderate, steady humidity and avoid very dry room air. Steady humidity helps new leaves expand cleanly and reduces edge stress.
  • Potting: Keep the pot close to the active root mass and repot gradually. A large unused soil volume can remain wet below the roots.
  • Air movement: Gentle air circulation around the foliage and base helps leaves dry normally and keeps the growing area fresh.

Common Silver Dragon Alocasia problems and solutions

  • Dull or greener leaves: A blade lacking the expected silver contrast may still be hardening or may be receiving insufficient light. Allow it to mature, then review the light level.
  • Yellowing leaves: Several leaves yellowing while the pot remains wet can indicate root stress, cold substrate or poor aeration. Check the pot weight, roots and substrate structure.
  • Brown tips or margins: Dry or dark edges on the pale panels may result from uneven watering, low humidity or mineral salts. Stabilise moisture and review water and fertiliser build-up.
  • Drooping petioles: Upright petioles may lose their position because of thirst, heat, cold exposure or root decline. Check moisture below the surface and inspect the root zone.
  • Twisted or marked new leaves: Distorted or scarred emerging blades may indicate thrips or mites around the new growth. Inspect leaf backs, veins and petiole bases.
  • Soft rhizome tissue: Soft basal or rhizome tissue may indicate prolonged wetness and root decline. Keep only firm tissue and repot it into a fresh, airy mix.

Is Silver Dragon Alocasia toxic to people or pets?

Silver Dragon Alocasia contains irritating calcium oxalate crystals. If plant tissue is eaten, it can irritate the mouth. Keep it beyond the reach of pets and children, and use gloves when handling sap, roots or cut rhizome tissue.

A true turtleneck that retains a snug high neck.
Color: White, Size: X-Large
I've found this brand to have gotten better over the years as far as offering the American market what it needs in terms of realistic sizing. I only wish they'd realize that there are a lot of us who are long in the back and arms where my only choice is to go a size up and sacrifice a slim fit for sleeves that are long enough plus a back that doesn't go up past my waist just because I reach up for something, that and I like to be warm. So these are such nice quality turtlenecks that it's hard to complain about but maybe the company will read this. The snug neck stays up is plus number one since that's why I'm buying a full neck. They come with very nice weaves in the fabric, good enough for casual or formal wear. Finally the warmth you seek is there but I've worn them in what most would think isn't the right temp for a turtleneck. Also they have them in white! Yes, a lot of others just don't for reasons I can't fathom, and the pic you're seeing is accurate, these will form to your shape without being ridiculously thin material. Several washes later and they are as fine a garment as when I first wore them. I've only found one other brand that compares to these but it's much more expensive, COOFANDY is affordable in these times of expensive everything. Warm but also a lightweight shirt, I've gotten them really dirty with actual dirt and it washes out so well you'd never know it. Don't let my taking off one star stop you, try one yourself and you'll be coming back for more.
