How we measure your trees
When you order a 5–6 ft. tree, you get a tree that's 5–6 ft. tall above the soil, not "including the container." You'll know what to expect when it arrives, and what it will look like in the ground.

- Rare Pink Stems – Unlike most Alocasias, the Pink Dragon features stunning rosy-pink petioles that contrast beautifully against the dark leaves.
- Compact Yet Dramatic – With a manageable size, this Alocasia fits well in homes, offices, and small spaces while still making a bold statement.
- A Collector’s Dream – A rare and sought-after variety, Pink Dragon is a must-have for Alocasia lovers and plant collectors alike.
- Air-Purifying Benefits – Like other tropical plants, this Alocasia helps improve indoor air quality by filtering out toxins.
A Striking Addition to Your Space
Alocasia Pink Dragon is more than just a houseplant—it’s a living piece of art. Its thick, waxy leaves have a prominent venation pattern, giving them a textured appearance that catches the light beautifully. But what truly sets this plant apart is its soft pink petioles, a feature rarely seen in Alocasias. This combination of colors gives the plant an elegant and almost surreal quality, making it a conversation starter in any room.
Its moderately compact size (growing up to 3 feet tall) makes it a great choice for plant lovers who want the dramatic impact of an Alocasia without taking up too much space. Whether placed in a decorative pot on a side table, displayed as a centerpiece, or nestled among other tropical plants, Pink Dragon brings sophistication and a tropical vibe to your home.
Is Alocasia Pink Dragon Pet-Friendly?
While breathtakingly beautiful, Alocasia Pink Dragon is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. The plant contains calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause mouth irritation and digestive issues. If you have pets or small children, it’s best to place the plant out of reach or opt for pet-friendly alternatives.
Common Questions About Alocasia Pink Dragon
Why are my Alocasia Pink Dragon’s leaves turning yellow?
Yellowing leaves can be a sign of overwatering or lack of humidity. Check the soil moisture and adjust your watering routine accordingly. Also, ensure that your plant is in a humid environment to prevent dryness.
Can I grow Alocasia Pink Dragon outdoors?
Yes! If you live in USDA hardiness zones 9-11, Alocasia Pink Dragon can be grown outdoors in a shaded or partially shaded area. In cooler climates, it should be kept indoors as a houseplant.
Why are my Alocasia Pink Dragon’s leaves curling?
Curling leaves usually indicate underwatering, low humidity, or too much direct sunlight. Make sure your plant is getting enough water and is placed in a humid, well-lit area with indirect light.
Will Alocasia Pink Dragon go dormant?
Yes, like many Alocasias, Pink Dragon may enter dormancy in the winter. During this time, growth may slow down, and it might even lose some leaves. This is completely normal! Reduce watering and wait for it to perk back up in spring.
