Calathea Exotica Plant features eye-catching foliage, with elongated, lance-shaped leaves showcasing prominent green veins and a velvety texture. The underside of the leaves displays a beautiful shade of deep purple, adding elegance to any indoor space.

This tropical beauty thrives in warm and humid environments, making it an excellent choice for your indoor garden. It prefers bright, indirect light, making it ideal to place near a window with filtered sunlight. Remember to avoid direct sunlight, as it can cause leaf burn.

Plant Care

Indirect light – Calathea plants need bright, but not direct, sunlight to grow. This is because they grow on the floor of jungles and forests where they get limited light through the tops of the trees. In fact, direct sunlight will burn the leaves of a Calathea plant and cause it to lose its vibrant colors.

Water – Use distilled water or water that has been purified in some way to water Calathea plants. Calathea like to have moist soil or planting substances, but not soggy. They do not want lots of water, as it can drown them. When you water a Calathea plant, do not water it so much that the plant ends up sitting in standing water.

Temperature – Calathea plants do not like the cold very much. They are from tropical areas of the world and prefer temperatures between 65-80 degrees. Temperatures above and below that can cause damage to the plant, first evident in the curling of the leaves.
