This plant is a work of art. Medallion is a prayer plant, the common name for plants that tend to fold their foliage as night falls. Calathea are grown for their beautifully ornamental leaves. The foliage is patterned in multiple shades of green.
- 12-18 inches tall at maturity
- Prefers high humidity with temperatures between 60-85 F to keep edges from browning
- Requires medium to low light, near east/west facing windows or interior rooms
- Great for humid spaces, low light or bright spaces, tabletops, shelves, north facing windows
Care Info:
- Temperature: For optimal performance, keep your Calathea at 60-85°F (15-29°C).
- Humidity: It will do best with high humidity. A pebble tray may help add humidity if needed, but a humidifier is a better option.
Water Quality: They should not be watered with tap water, unless it has been filtered. Distilled water is a good option as well. The plants are sensitive to impurities and salts in tap water, which can cause leaf edges to burn. - Watering: Calathea also prefers to have moist, but not wet soils. If the soil gets too dry it can cause leaf curl, which is a symptom of dry soil. Water when the top inch or so of soil is dry. If your soil is very dry you may want to soak your pot in water until the soil is rehydrated. It can take half an hour or more to rehydrate the soil. Allow the pot to drain once the soil is moist through. Do not allow the plant to sit in water over extended periods of time.
- Soil: Add some perlite and/or orchid bark to help fluff up the potting mix and provide better drainage.
Fertilizer: Feed once per month at half strength when plant is actively growing.
