The baby Dwarf Calathea Orbifolia is easily identified by its large, striped leaves which grow rapidly. She belongs to a group called the ‘prayer plants’, a South American plant family whose members are distinguished by the way their leaves close at night, pressing together like a pair of hands at prayer. With a little love and care your baby dwarf Calathea Orbifolia will grow into a beautiful large houseplant, perfect for the hallway or as a feature in your bathroom!
Arrived in coco, which I worry might be difficult to uppot later. Shipped batter than expected, not a single leaf has any signs of damage. Even with my little experience with calatheas it acclimated really quickly and is pushing out new leaves.
My absolute favourite plant. After about 2 years it’s grown into a bushy, healthy looking plant with wide leaves that are almost 30cm big. It needs quite a bit of humidity, otherwise the leave edges turn brown, and enough sunlight to make it grow in a compact shape and keep the pattern on the leaves.
Arrived super healthy, can't wait to see her grow big and beautiful!
Easy to care for a calathea
Arrived in great conditions and is unfolding a new leaf already!
Very pretty, arrived in perfect condition. I've heard a lot of things about Calatheas being picky and difficult to care for, but I've had this one for 4 months now and it's easy to care for and in good health!
