Alocasia Heterophylla ‘Dragon’s Breath’
The Alocasia heterophylla ‘Dragon’s Breath’ is a rare tropical houseplant prized for its narrow, arrow-shaped leaves and striking blue-green metallic sheen. Its deeply textured foliage, prominent veins, and contrasting purple-maroon undersides give this compact Alocasia a dramatic, almost reptilian appearance.
Mature plants may produce a greenish-white inflorescence consisting of a hood-like spathe surrounding a central flower spike called a spadix. Flowering is uncommon indoors, and this Alocasia is primarily grown for its unusual foliage.
Bright, indirect light is ideal.
