Calathea
Are Calathea easy to care for?
Yes, as long as you keep a few simple habits: indirect light, soil that stays lightly moist and, ideally, non-calcareous water and air that isn't too dry. Nothing complicated once you find the rhythm. Remember to mist it regularly if needed.
Are Calathea toxic to cats and dogs?
No, Calathea are non-toxic to pets. It's one of the ideal families for a home with cats or dogs.
Why do Calathea leaves move at night?
They rise at night and open by day: this natural movement, nyctinasty, earns them the name prayer plants. It's harmless, and usually a good sign.
Where should I place a Calathea at home?
In a room that's rather humid and bright but without direct sun, or a shadier spot: a bathroom with a window or a kitchen suit it very well. Otherwise, remember to mist it more regularly. Keep it away from draughts and radiators.
