# What type of alocaisa do y’all think this is? All my app scanners…

_Posted by Meg on 2025-06-08_

What type of alocaisa do y’all think this is? All my app scanners tell me it’s an amazonica Polly but all my Polly’s have more of a ruffled edge to the leaf this one is little more smooth. It could be a Polly I’m just not sure!

Looks just like my pink dragon

Pink dragon or pink princess with those stems. Not sure how to tell those two apart

So, it looks like there is actually no such thing as an Alocasia pink princess. And those Alocasias marked as such are mislabeled. I have the exact same plant that you have in your photo. Mine was mislabeled as a pink princess, but just like “Hyperplantmama” said, it’s actually an Alocasia Pink Dragon. There is a pink princess, but it’s a Philodendron, not an Alocasia, and they don’t look similar at all.
