Intuitively, we may want to increase light due to the plants' white/light foliage, but this rule does not apply to calathea! These are genuinely low-light specimens (found on the jungle floor). In our climate, there are seasonal considerations when it comes to maintenance.

(SEASONAL) CARE:

summer/early fall 

  • Dappled/low light is best 
  • Keep the soil evenly moist but not soaked
  • If possible, use distilled water (NOT spring water ), or allow tap water to sit out for a few days 
  • Does well in a warm environment with high humidity 

late fall/winter/early spring 

  • Bright indirect-medium light is best 
  • Water when the first 1/4-1/3 of soil is dry 
  • If possible, use distilled water (NOT spring water, or allow tap water to sit out for a few days 
  • Keep away from drafts!
  • Does well in a warm environment with high humidity

Calathea originate from tropical rainforests and can often be seen growing around the base of trees. That said, these plants require a well-draining potting media that can still retain moisture but not become waterlogged. 

*Calatheas do very well in bathrooms (with a window) or closed terrariums. 

*Cripsy leaves are commonly caused by lack of humidity/water quality or both
