Description
The *Golden Dragon* is one of the rarest and most coveted plants in the aroid family. It is a highly sought-after hybrid of *Epipremnum pinnatum*, known for its uniquely shaped leaves that resemble a dragon's head, giving it its mythical name. The foliage is what truly sets this plant apart: it showcases deep green, glossy leaves with striking fenestrations, which develop as the plant matures. The leaves also have a golden variegation that appears in different intensities, creating a marbled effect that adds to its allure.
As a climbing aroid, the *Golden Dragon* can develop beautifully long vines when provided with a moss pole or trellis. Originating from tropical regions of Southeast Asia, this plant thrives in humid conditions and indirect light. Its rarity and the difficulty in propagating it further add to its exclusivity, making it a prized addition to any serious plant collector’s array.
**Care Guide**: Despite its stunning appearance, the *Golden Dragon* is surprisingly easy to care for. It prefers bright, indirect light and high humidity, but can tolerate lower light levels. Water when the top inch of soil is dry, ensuring that the plant doesn’t sit in waterlogged soil. Perfect for living rooms, bedrooms, or any space where you want to showcase a truly exotic plant.
Details: The Golden Dragon comes in an XL 8” planter. These plants like to be root bound.
