Light Instructions

Calathea Orbifolia grows best in a space with bright indirect light, where the sun rays are diffused, and can also adapt to spaces with bright direct light, where the sunlight streams inside directly. Avoid placing it in spaces with low light or spaces without natural sunlight.

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

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.

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.
