Description

Calathea plants are grown primarily for their beautiful, brightly colored, upright, oval leaves. The various Calathea varieties have leaves with purple undersides and various vibrant colorful patterns on the top side.  A member of the Marantaceae or Prayer Plant family, Calathea 'Medallion' will move its leaves with the light, and folds them up at night.  This plant is is arguably one of the most beautiful low-light plants.  They are pretty popular to plant enthusiasts because of their large, "medallion"-like leaves: Calatheas are tropical plants and they love an environment with higher humidity, low-light, and moderate soil moisture.

    This plant is pet and children safe.

    Care Guide

    Calathea medallion requires a bit of extra TLC to keep their unique leaves perky and shining. Place your plant in an area where it can get medium to bright indirect light. However, it can also tolerate low indirect light. If you notice that the beautiful leaf colors of your Calathea Medallion are fading, then it means that your plant is receiving too much direct sun that it's starting to burn the leaves. It's recommended to create a regular watering schedule to keep your Calathea Medallion's soil moist. However, avoid soaking its soil in water. Your Calathea Medallion is a non-toxic plant to humans and pets. However, it's tasty, so protect them from your pets
