About Calathea Plants (Cathedral Plant)
Discover our curated range of Calathea plants for sale at Ed’s Plant Shop. Known as “prayer plants,” Calatheas are prized for their bold foliage patterns, vibrant hues, and unique nightly leaf movements that bring a touch of tropical elegance to any indoor space.
Why Grow Calathea (Prayer Plants)?
Calatheas (Marantaceae family) feature intricate leaf markings—from deep greens to purples, pinks, and silvers—and perform nyctinasty (leaf “prayer” movements) at dusk. These low-to-medium light houseplants add dynamic texture and color, purify indoor air, and thrive in humid, warm environments.
Popular Calathea Varieties
Calathea Makoyana ‘Peacock Plant’: Intricate feather-like patterns in green and purple, perfect for bright, indirect light.
Calathea Rattlesnake: Long, wavy leaves spotted in dark green and olive—adds bold, architectural interest.
Calathea Orbifolia: Wide, silvery-striped leaves create a stunning focal point in any room.
Calathea Pinstripe: Delicate pink pinstripes contrast against deep green foliage for a refined look.
Calathea Care Guide
Light: Bright, indirect light; avoid direct sun to prevent leaf scorch.
Water: Keep soil evenly moist—water when the top 2 cm dries, using filtered or distilled water to avoid brown edges.
Humidity & Temperature: Maintain 50–70% humidity and 18–27°C (65–80°F). Mist regularly or use a humidifier.
Soil & Feeding: Use a well-draining, peat-based mix; feed monthly in spring/summer with a balanced houseplant fertilizer at half strength.
Pruning: Remove faded or yellow leaves to encourage new growth and maintain appearance.
