Calathea's are very established in the market; this one is an absolute corker!
The uniqueness of Calathea Musaica is spot on. Its striking cross-hatch design on its leaves will surely grab attention - it almost looks quite futuristic. We've never seen anything like this before at Leaf Culture! Unlike many Calathea, this variety has smooth leaves - they're normally a bit more velvet like, but not this time. Not only that but the leaves are vibrant green with yellow hues so perfect for those of you who want something bright and uplifting.
As a low-maintenance house plant, it brings aesthetic appeal and stress-relieving benefits to any space.
All Calathea's are commonly known as Prayer Plants because they move their leaves depending on the amount of light they have and at night (some more than others) they curl their leaves up - hence the name.
Calathea Musaica is considered easy to grow and relatively undemanding and like nearly all house plants, they like bright indirect light. Avoid placing near a radiator (obvs) and sit back and appreciate the cross-hatch leaves - you won't have seen anything like it before!
Tip: Calathea like to be a bit more on the moist side - avoid it drying out. Use a fertiliser with every water and make sure your tap water is left overnight so the chlorine disappears before watering your plant. 🪴
My first order with this company couldn't be any better.
Super fast next day delivery, safe and recyclable packaging, very good prices (both plants and postage) and a personal email from management was a nice touch. Thank you all, keep up an amazing work
