Golden Mosaic Bio

Hailing from Brazil, the evergreen perennial Golden Mosaic is revered for the strikingly beautiful gold and cream variegations on its large, oval leaves. It belongs to the Marantaceae family, known as ‘Prayer Plants’, which much like humans and unlike most plants, have a wake-and-sleep cycle according to a circadian rhythm. This means the leaves move upwards during the night and downwards throughout the day in search of the sun.

Light Instructions

Golden Mosaic 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.

Golden Mosaic Care
During your Golden Mosaic's first few days at home, one or two leaves might fall or turn brown at the tips. This is a normal part of adjustment and is no cause for concern. To help it grow optimally and evenly, occasionally dust the leaves and rotate the pot by a ¼ turn once a month.
Frequently Asked Questions

No, the Ctenanthe Lubbersiana is not a Calathea. These plants have a similar look and come from the Marantaceae family, but they are different species. The way to differentiate between the two is Ctenanthes' stalks develop above ground while Calathea leaves emerge from their root mass.

No, misting is not necessary for Ctenanthe, although it does thrive in high humidity. To increase humidity levels, consider using alternative methods such as grouping it with other plants or employing a pebble tray. These techniques can effectively raise the humidity around the plant without the risk of leaf spot fungus, which can occur with excessive water on the leaves.
