One of the more famous or infamous Calatheas. The Calathea Fushion is stunning! But we don't have to tell you that. Just look at the pictures! Soft white and green colour each leaf in brushstroke-like lines. The undersides of some of the leaves showcase a pale purple tint, which signifies the classic Calathea colour. However, the purple is softer and paler than other plants in the Calathea genus. Another plant for The Hobbit Land’s collection. These plants tend to be lower-growing plants commonly found as ground cover in a jungle. As part of the Marantaceae (prayer plant) family, these plants also move their leaves in a praying hands method throughout the day. It is awesome to see their leaves in different positions in the morning and at night!

Maintenance

People with lower light settings will be happy to know that this plant prefers lower light settings. Direct light is no need, medium light is best to maintain the white variegation, but they also do well in lower light, albeit with some loss of the white colour. In its natural habitat, this plant is often shaded by taller plants/trees. Calathea plants like to be consistently moist (not wet). If the plant dries out too much, then it can result in pests. I like to give these plants a bit of water frequently, as opposed to drenching them and allowing them to dry out. Important: These plants tend to be sensitive to water with chemicals and minerals. Tap water may cause these plants to get brown tips. If possible, water your plant with rain water, filtered water or water that has been standing for at least 24 hours. It is also important to water them with room temperature water. Try not to get water on their leaves as this can result in fungal issues. Note: Be sure not to let the plant sit in pooled water as that can cause root rot.

Pet Note

Pet lovers will be happy to know that these plants are non-toxic. But please don't let cute little Whiskey nibble these beautiful leaves!
