Calathea Lancifolia, commonly known as Rattlesnake because of its beautiful snake like markings is one of the most beautiful plants in our collection.
Calathea varieties include some of the most stunning tropical foliage plants in the world and are often confused with their close relative Maranta or the “prayer plant”. These plants grow on the bed of the tropical forest and have large leaves to catch the dripping water from trees.
These beautiful plants are a tad bit picky about their water intake--they do fine with tap, but prefer filtered water. Try and avoid the leaves when watering and keep the soil a tiny bit moist. It likes moderate to high light, but no direct sun.
east or west facing light, water when dry.

My plants always arrive healthy and are proficiently shipped
My plant arrived damaged, soft, droopy, upon arrival with the weather protection. I watered the plant as it was dry and light, but made no difference. The top cutting was broken off when I opened the box. I emailed the shop about my issue, they blamed it on watering and never responded. I’m very disappointed and will not be shopping with this company again. Poor customer service and now I have a sad plant.
Good information for beginners, and good reminders for experienced plant parents.
