Dah zmaja Alokazije

Zmajevi više vole svoje svjetlo sa strane, molim

Alocasia Dragon’s Breath is a plant that loves to bask in the glow of sunlight, but it’s particular about its tanning conditions. Imagine it as a sunbather who insists on keeping under a big, floppy hat or a parasol. It’s not a fan of the harsh, unfiltered rays, as they can lead to leaf burn, turning its once vibrant red hues into a less-than-stellar pale.

U divljini, ovo tropsko blago stvara ugodan dom za sebe ispod dapplirane nijanse većih stabala, gdje je sunčeva svjetlost nježna i ljubazna. Ova biljka ima sklonost svijetlom, neizravnom svjetlu, što je poput mekog, toplih zagrljaja koji potiče svoje lišće da održavaju svoje bujne zelene vrhove i vatreno crvene donje strane.

When it comes to lighting up your home with an Alocasia Dragon’s Breath, placing it near an east-facing window is a great idea, as the morning sunlight is just right. If you’re thinking of a south or west-facing window, consider using a sheer curtain to diffuse the light, acting as a natural sunscreen for your plant. This way, you can prevent the leaves from getting sunburned while still enjoying the benefits of natural light.

Remember, when it comes to sunlight, this plant is a bit of a diva. It wants its light bright but indirect, so give it the filtered love it craves to keep its coloration as striking as a dragon’s fiery breath.
