Details
With its wavy-edged leaves and richly textured undersides, Calathea Rufibarba’s deep green foliage has a velvety softness, while the burgundy undersides offer a rich contrast that adds warmth and depth. A fan of humidity and gentle light, it rewards careful care with a full, bushy shape and rhythmic movement as its leaves shift with the sun. Prayer plants are known to close their leaves at night and open them again during the day. If yours isn’t opening fully, it might need more light. A quiet presence that brings a touch of the rainforest indoors.
Self-watering pot included
Our self-watering pot makes plant care easy! This easy watering system makes sure your plant gets just the right amount of water and Plantsmith feed at exactly the right time. The water meter on the device indicates when you need to fill it with water and Plantsmith feed, and your plant will take care of itself for weeks to come.
Care Instructions
-
Light Calatheas love bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves. -
Watering & Feeding The self-watering pot does the hard work. Top up when the indicator dips and soil is dry. Add a feed to the reservoir from March–September. -
Humidity Calatheas love humidity. Mist regularly to keep leaves lush and healthy or place in a naturally humid room.
