Calathea albertii - frunzis spectaculos cu desen contrastant

Calathea albertii is a rare and exceptionally decorative variety, appreciated for its large leaves with a unique contrasting pattern. The creamy-silver pattern applied on the intense green background creates a lush visual effect, while the burgundy underside of the leaves completes the sophisticated look typical of the Marantaceae family. It is a perfect plant to bring a touch of exoticism, color, and texture to any room.

The compact shape and ornamental foliage make Calathea albertii an excellent choice for the living room, office, or bedroom, easily fitting into both modern decor and natural or boho arrangements. Like all calatheas, it prefers high humidity and filtered light, avoiding direct sun exposure.
