Calathea Orbifolia Care
There are a few things you can do to help your prayer plant grow and thrive. Use moist but well-drained soil with acidic, neutral, or alkaline pH. During the growing season, use a weak concentrated dose of fertilizer once a month to promote healthy growth and foliage. Dusting the leaves of the Calathea orbifolia regularly will prevent clogged pores and allow for maximum light-capturing ability.
Frequently Asked Questions
How Much Light Does Calathea Orbifolia Need?
Calathea orbifolia needs bright, indirect light. Placing it near a south-facing window should provide adequate light. Be sure to place it a short distance from the window, in the path of light, so its leaves don't get scorched. A sheer curtain on the window will also help to diffuse the light and protect your plant while providing sufficient light.
How do I Keep Calathea Orbifolia Happy?
Keeping your Calathea orbifolia happy is as simple as following proper care guidelines. Be sure your plant is getting enough light; temperatures and humidity should mimic the plant's native tropical environment. Try not to disturb your plant by moving it around, and only repot when small roots are sticking out of the pot's drainage hole.
