Description

A classic Calathea, the roseopicta ‘Medallion’ is one of the popular prayer plant (also known as the never-never plant) family. Like so many of its plant family, the roseopicta ‘Medallion’ is packed with character, with some of the most incredible patterning to its upper leaves, with a deep and vibrant purple on the underside.

The roseopicta ‘Medallion’ loves…

  • Bright indirect light, but will manage in a slightly shadier spot - direct sunlight will cause the leaves to fade

  • Its soil to be moist but not wet - water when the top few cm of soil are feeling dry

  • A bit of humidity to stop its leaves drying - giving it a regular mist or placing it in a humid room like a bathroom or kitchen works well

  • Being fed once a month during spring and summer

Non-toxic to pets or humans if ingested

Tip

  • If you can, use captured rainwater to water your plants. Some houseplants can be sensitive to the chlorine found in tap water.
