Alocasia ‘Silver Dragon’, Tradescantia Zebrina & Rex Begonia Arrangement – Vintage Diamond-Cut Pressed Glass Compote

A Collector’s Trio in an Extraordinary Vintage Vessel

This stunning arrangement pairs three plants with serious visual drama in one of the most beautiful vessels we’ve used — a wide, low vintage diamond-cut pressed glass footed compote with an intricate all-over hobnail diamond pattern and a raised pedestal foot with starburst base. The vessel is an antique-style collector’s piece in its own right. Together with its plants, this arrangement is genuinely unforgettable.

The Alocasia ‘Silver Dragon’ commands the arrangement — multiple heart-shaped leaves at various heights with a luminous pale silvery-green surface and deeply impressed dark green veining that catches light from every angle. A collectible, sought-after aroid that is genuinely hard to find. Spilling dramatically over the left of the vessel, Tradescantia zebrina (Inch Plant) trails its gorgeous silver-green striped leaves with deep purple-burgundy undersides in a cascade of color and movement. On the right, a Rex Begonia (white/cream variegated) contributes ruffled, heavily marked cream-white and green leaves on vivid red petioles — highly ornamental and an exceptional companion to the Silver Dragon’s silver tones.
