Is This the Right Plant for You?
Like others of its kind, the Calathea Rattlesnake gets its name from the unique patterns on its foliage. As a member of the prayer plant family, the long, patterned leaves will close at night, revealing a deep magenta shade on their underside.
Our Mid-Century collection pairs high-fire ceramic pots with reclaimed wood stands, offering a nod to classic design with a focus on sustainability. Designed and engineered with form and function in mind, these pieces are perfectly sized, water sealed, surface safe, and made from non-toxic materials.
A bright finish, A unique staging
When you purchase a plant from Léon & George, each order is prepared with the utmost care and service:
Carefully wrapped, packed and sealed for their journey to you
When ordered with a ceramic pot, your set comes pre-assembled with our staging method for optimal airflow and drainage. This method ensures long-term comfort and care of your plant, repotting is not recommended.

This plant is the coolest plant I’ve ever had. It moves around throughout the day, looks beautiful, and bonus: I think my cats are afraid to try to chew on it! It’s safe if they decide to try, but I’m happy they aren’t so far. Excellent quality and excellent experience with L&G!

Love, love, my unique calathea
I have had lots of interesting comments about my new calathea I have named "Olive." It looks like flowers are intricately painted onto the stems with a fine paint brush. It is lovely! I hope to order other plants soon. Thank you for the helpful love notes on how to take care of the Calathea. ❤
