Alocasia ‘Pink Dragon’ × ‘Nairobi Nights’ Variegated M | Fast EU shipping | Grown with love in the EU | Pet-toxic
Summary: This rare Alocasia hybrid dazzles with glossy black/silver leaves adorned with pink petioles and stems—creating a dramatic, moody statement piece for any collector’s indoor jungle.
Bright, indirect light is ideal—too little will dull colours, while direct sun may scorch leaves. Best placed near east- or north-facing windows with filtered brightness.
Keep soil evenly moist; allow the top 2 cm to dry between waters to prevent soggy roots. Prefers high humidity (60–80%)—use consistent misting, a pebble tray, or a humidifier to maintain leaf health.
Use a free-draining aroid mix with orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir. Repot every 1–2 years in spring when root-bound. Ensure pots include drainage holes.
Toxic to pets and humans if ingested due to calcium oxalate crystals—keep safely out of reach from cats, dogs, and children.
Moderate grower. Propagation via division during spring repotting once pups form at the tuber base—each offset can be potted to expand your collection.
Reduce watering slightly in winter but maintain humidity. Wipe leaves gently to keep their rich texture and highlight variegation.
Watch for yellow or drooping leaves—often a sign of overwatering or low humidity. Spider mites may appear in dry air; treat with neem oil or insecticidal soap as needed.
This unique hybrid blends the dramatic pink petiole character of Alocasia ‘Pink Dragon’ with the deep, silvery-black foliage of ‘Nairobi Nights’, creating a collector’s dream dual-tone Alocasia with spectacular visual impact.

My experience at plant circle: I ordered 5 plants, alocasia to Slovenia, but Loco was sold out, they informed me about this and gave me the choice of another plant or a refund, my decision is to get another Frydek plant. The shipment of plants arrived carefully packaged without damage. But the alocasia was not in the package, at first I was disappointed, but the next day I was surprised, DPD delivered and made up for my Frydek plant. I received a notification from plant circle that they forgot to send it in the first shipment and sent it back without any additional costs. plant circle is one of the best indoor plant stores, you deserve a rating of 10 not just 5. Thank you.
Diese Alocasia gefällt mir bis jetzt am besten. Sie hatte kaum Versandstress und sieht sehr schön aus.
Alles perfekt
