Calathea Velvet Jungle

Elevate your plant collection with the exquisite Calathea Velvet Jungle. This breathtaking tropical beauty showcases broad, velvety leaves with intricate light green feather-like patterns that contrast dramatically against their deep green surface. Flip the leaves to reveal a stunning purple-red underside that adds an extra dimension of color to this already spectacular plant.

Plant Care:

• Light needs: Medium to bright indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight which can burn the leaves and fade their distinctive patterns.
• Water needs: Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch feels dry, using distilled or rainwater as it's sensitive to chemicals in tap water.
• Temperature: Thrives in warm environments between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Protect from cold drafts and sudden temperature fluctuations.
• Where best to keep this plant: Humid environments like bathrooms or kitchens. Benefits from regular misting or a nearby humidifier to prevent crispy leaf edges.
• Pet-safe? Yes, non-toxic to cats and dogs, making it a safe choice for pet owners.

Like other prayer plants, your Calathea Velvet Jungle performs a daily leaf movement, raising its leaves at night and lowering them during the day. This natural rhythm, combined with its air-purifying qualities, makes it as functional as it is beautiful.
