The Ctenanthe Amagris is a distant relative of the Calathea, and shows this heritage on the surface of its leaves. She comes from tropical areas in Central and South America where she grows in the shade of trees. The Ctenanthe pulls up her leaves every evening when she goes to ‘sleep' and when it’s really quiet you may even hear the rustling of the leaves! Take good care of her and she will soon produce more leaves, and before you know it she will be ready for her next pot!
The baby Ctenanthe Amagris does not need a lot of water- we recommend just an occasional dash to prevent the soil from drying out. To keep her totally happy and to prevent white spots from appearing on her leaves, give her a shower of distilled water or rainwater from your plant sprayer once in a while. For fuller and more concentrated growth you should also regularly prune her and remove dead leaves. And please be cautious- Ctenanthe Amagris is poisonous for pets.

Sturdy little plants that’s very easy-care if you don’t forget to water it for too long

This must be one of the cutest baby plants I’ve ordered so far (and I’ve ordered many)! It is much fuller than pictured and super healthy- no browning or yellowing in sight and is growing well. A very nice and unexpected surprise.
Your order will be hand picked and packed in our strong and sustainable packaging as soon as possible, after which it will be delivered straight from our greenhouse to your door by your chosen carrier. You can follow the journey of your plants via the tracking link you receive in your mail. If you have any questions regarding your order and its shipment, you can get in contact with our support team.
We expect every order to arrive in tip-top shape. We take intensive care of the plants in our greenhouse and use special and as sustainable as possible protective packaging to ship our plants. We also wrote an extensive blog about how to unpack and prepare your plants for growth after shipping. However there are rare occasions where our plants don’t meet their full potential. That’s why all plants are guaranteed for 30 days after arrival, if still in its original nursery pot.
