Characterictics

The green dragon shares similar characteristics with the "akai ryu". Sends slightly erected petioles in spring, but during summer, it produces rosetted ground hugging petioles. Under full sunlight conditions, the trap interiors and rib exhibits dark burgundy coloration, whereas the leaf blade tend to be dark green with burgundy-colored veins.

It is often confused with the akai ryu or red dragon. To differentiate the two, it is best to grow both plants under similar conditions, only then will the difference be visible. Also it is advisable to obtain it from a reputable nursery.
