Calathea Beauty Star

  • Product Info

    Elegant and eye-catching, the Calathea Beauty Star brings vibrant energy to any indoor space. Its elongated, deep green leaves are striped with light green and silver, with rich purple undersides—making it a true statement piece. Native to South America, this striking prayer plant is known for its rhythmic leaf movements and intricate foliage.

  • Care guide:

    Light
    Prefers bright, indirect light. Keep out of direct sun, which can fade or scorch the vibrant leaf patterns. It tolerates lower light better than many houseplants.

    Water
    Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry. Use filtered or rainwater if possible, as Calatheas can be sensitive to minerals in tap water.

    Humidity
    High humidity (above 50%, ideally 60–70%) is essential. Mist regularly, use a humidifier, or place near other plants to maintain moisture levels.

    Repotting
    Repot every 1–2 years or when roots begin to circle the pot. Use a well-draining mix rich in organic matter (e.g., potting soil + coco coir + perlite).
