Care & tips for the Calathea Zebrina - 50cm
The Calathea is a wonderfully easy houseplant. Give it a spot in bright indirect light and it will soon settle in happily.
How much water does the Calathea Zebrina - 50cm need?
The potting soil of your Calathea Zebrina likes to hold a little moisture, but be careful not to overwater. Too much water can build up at the bottom of the pot and lead to root rot. That's why it's important to feel the soil before every watering. Still damp from last time? Then hold off on watering for now.
It's also a good idea to mist the leaves of your Calathea regularly. That helps keep the humidity around the plant high, which it will certainly appreciate.
How much light does the Calathea Zebrina - 50cm need?
The Calathea Zebrina originally comes from the tropics of South America, where it grows in the shade of tall trees. That means it doesn't cope well with direct sunlight and would rather have a shady spot in your home. In that ideal position the leaves stay at their most beautiful and the plant is encouraged to grow new leaf patterns.
Is the Calathea Zebrina - 50cm toxic?
No, happily the Calathea Zebrina is completely pet-friendly and safe for children!
