CALATHEA ROSEOPICTA (rose-painted calathea) 6”
Rose-Painted Calathea 6”—A Botanical Performer in Your Home Stage
Meet the Rose-Painted Calathea 6”, a plant that’s as thoughtful as you are. With large, velvety leaves streaked in rose-pink and edged in rich green, this beauty looks like someone hand-painted each leaf with love and a very fine brush. Flip them over and you’ll find a deep plum-purple underside—proof that this plant is serving looks from every angle.
The Nitty-Gritty (Plant Care):
• Light: Bright, indirect light keeps those colours poppin’. Avoid direct sun—it’s a bit of a diva about sunburn.
• Water: Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy. Consistency is key—this one likes a reliable routine.
• Humidity: Craves humidity. Mist regularly or pair with a humidifier to avoid crispy edges and drama.
What It’s Telling You:
• Happy Signs: Vibrant colour, perky posture, and the classic Calathea evening “prayer fold” = it’s thriving.
• Needs TLC: Browning edges? It’s likely craving more humidity or filtered water. She’s sensitive, but worth it.
Good News for Pet Parents:
Yes! Calathea roseopicta is non-toxic and totally pet-safe—let the whole family enjoy her flair.
Extra Love for Detail Lovers:
