We love Calathea for their striking patterned leaves reminiscent of an animal print. The leaves stand out from the plant on strong upright stems creating a well shaped, pretty plant. This item is one from a mix of this type of plant so may have slightly different markings.
Originating from tropical regions, they like relatively stable temperatures (ideally above 15C) and a well-lit position that does not get direct sunlight. They like to be kept well watered, although this can be cut back a little in winter, and they thrive in high humidity, either grow it in a steamy room, mist it with water regularly.
