With some of the most beautiful leaves you can find, a Calathea plant will make an exotic addition to your living area. Calatheas perform a wonderful dance each day as the leaves close up in the evening and unfurl each morning - a movement which lets you appreciate the red underside of the leaves in the evening and the unique leaf patterns during the day.
Calatheas can be a little picky when it comes to lighting but stick to a shadier spot of a generally bright room and you should be okay. A good soak once a week will keep this plant happy in the summer and this can be reduced through winter. These plants originate from tropical regions so think of mimicking tree cover with dappled shade and high humidity; misting regularly can help avid brown tips on the leaves!
- Estimated Plant Height: 20cm
- Pot Diameter: 13cm
- Preferred Location: Bright indirect light that won't experience too many extreme temperature changes
- Watering Requirements: Water once a week and this can be reduced during winter
Packaging
Plant Theory is all about great plants delivered straight to your door in the best state possible. Clever folds help hold the plant in place, and wrapping will be applied where needed if your plant needs extra care.
Show off your plant in style
Please note, all of our house plants arrive in a nursery pot as standard. You can find a more permanent home for your plant in our wide range of indoor plant pots.
Position your Calathea in a room with lots of bright but indirect light that won't experience too many extreme temperature changes. These plants also have the common name of 'Prayer Plant' for the lovely reason that at night the leaves will close and open again during the day; this feature ensures you get a great view of both the red underside and white top of the leaves.
