Care Instructions
The Calathea orbifolia is a bit more delicate than some houseplants, but with a little extra attention, you can keep this beauty thriving:
•Light: Bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid harsh, direct sun which can scorch the leaves.
•Water: Water consistently when the top inch of soil dries out. Don't let it sit in soggy soil, as this can lead to root rot. Use filtered or rainwater whenever possible to avoid brown leaf edges.
•Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity. Regular misting, a pebble tray filled with water, or a humidifier are all helpful. Grouping your Calathea orbifolia with other humidity-loving plants can also create a beneficial microclimate.
•Toxicity: Non-toxic to pets and humans.
Bellr Bonus Tip:
The Calathea orbifolia is a fast grower and may need to be repotted every 1-2 years to accommodate new growth.
