GardenersDream Baby Calathea Warscewiczii

• CHARACTERISTICS: Beautifully vibrant small indoor plant, flaunting large, bright green striped leaves with striking purple undersides. Originates from tropical forests in Central and South America, and keeps its colourful foliage year-round.
• SMALL HOUSEPLANT: Ideal indoor plant for small spaces like apartments, window sills, bathrooms, office desks or kitchens. Added bonus of the Calathea being an excellent air purifier!
• IDEAL GIFT PLANT: No matter the occasion – a birthday, housewarming or holidays – a baby plant will be a perfect gift for your friend or family with a green thumb, or someone aspiring to become a proud plant parent.
• CARE AND MAINTENANCE: Calathea Warscewiczii will thrive in a bright space that isn’t exposed to strong, direct sunlight. It’ll do best in fertile soil with good drainage. Water regularly, making sure that the top 2-5cm of soil is dry to touch between waterings.

Calathea Warscewiczii is a luxuriously exotic plant that is part of the Prayer Plant family - you’ll notice its leaves folding up at night and opening again in the morning, like two hands in prayer. Its rich green leaves are decorated with lighter green stripes on top and deep purple undersides. The foliage has a soft velvety feel, which is why Calathea Warscewiczii is also known as the Jungle Velvet plant.

Originating from the tropical forests of Central and South America, these plants love a warm humid atmosphere so are ideal for the kitchen or bathroom. However, if you’re willing to mist them every couple of days, you’ll find they fit nicely in any room of the house.

Growing your Calathea from its baby stage and watching it mature over time, from a tiny leafy stem to a healthy, fully grown plant is a delight to witness.

It’s not unusual to give your plant a name… so don’t hesitate to choose one that you think suits the plant! Try naming your plant with the first name or word that you think of when you look at it - that’s how we ended up with an orchid named Clover and spider plant called Joseph.
