Калатея руфибарба 'Блу Грас' D17

Calathea rufibarba 'Bluestar' is a tropical plant, exceptionally decorative, with colorful and varied foliage, native to South America.

Calathea is a plant that truly purifies the air, contributing to a better and healthier indoor climate.

Calathea is also special for another reason: at night its leaves close, and in the morning they open again! This is why Calathea is also called the "living plant." The plant owes this ability to a small "joint" between the leaves and the stem. Light moves the joints and, as a result, Calathea's leaves open and close—sometimes accompanied by a rustling sound.

Calathea prefers places with diffused light but avoids direct sunlight, which can burn the leaves. This plant requires high humidity and consistent watering, but it does not like excess water. Because this plant enjoys a humid atmosphere, it is a good choice for bathrooms or other areas with high moisture.

Calathea is a sensitive plant that requires careful care to thrive. However, its unique and beautiful leaves are the reward for all the effort.
Note: Calathea is sensitive to temperature changes. Therefore, you may receive these plants with some leaf blemishes, but these do not affect the plant's viability.
