Alocasia baginda Silver Dragon is a jewel Alocasia, which means it's a miniature elephant ear plant.
Alocasia Silver Dragon has thick silver foliage with dark veins. What separates this species from Alocasia Dragon Scale is the lack of red veining under the leaves.
Make sure your Alocasia Silver Dragon is in a well draining soil rich that is rich in organic matter. These plants prefer to dry out between watering. Provide your plant with bright indirect light.
This species grows very similar to another miniature elephant ear, Alocasia Dragon Scale.
Additional information:
Alocasia is a genus of plants in the Aroid family native to many parts of Asia including but not limited to Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines and Australia.
There are at least 90 officially recognized Alocasia species, with more discovered and properly named every year. Alocasia come in all sizes, from small to large. Jewel types like Black Velvet tend to stay on the bushier, more compact side.
Alocasia are rhizomatous or tuberous and self reproduce from corms.
Alocasia can go dormant during the cooler months, so try to provide your plant with temperatures above 50deg to ensure that they stay happy and healthy during this period.

Perfect and couldn’t be happier
This plant came in so happy and healthy! Immediately I could tell how much they care for their plants and the shipping of them. I will be buying again!
So, so happy with this purchase! The alocasia is stunning and much bigger than expected. The plant was also packaged with care and shipped fast.
This beauty came better than expected. Very well packaged, no damage to speak of, and the new leaf that was unfurling kept right at it after a few days to acclimate to my house. Will definitely buy from Canopy Plant Co. again!
