The Dottie Calathea (Calathea roseopicta ‘Dottie’) is a stunning houseplant known for its striking, deep purple foliage adorned with bright pink stripes. With its eye-catching contrast of colors, the Dottie Calathea adds a pop of bold style to any indoor space. This tropical plant thrives in low to medium light conditions and loves a humid environment, making it perfect for bathrooms or cozy corners where it can show off its unique beauty.
The leaves of the Dottie Calathea exhibit nyctinasty—this means they fold up slightly at night, creating a subtle movement that gives it a “living” appearance. This fascinating behavior makes it a favorite among plant enthusiasts who enjoy plants with personality and rhythm.
The Dottie Calathea is part of the Marantaceae family, which includes many other beautiful “prayer plants.” This cultivar originated through selective breeding to enhance its vivid pink markings and rich, dark leaves. Native to tropical rainforests, the Dottie Calathea has adapted well to indoor environments and has quickly become popular for its unique appearance and easy-care nature. Known for its visual appeal, it’s a wonderful choice for plant lovers looking to add a bit of drama and elegance to their plant collection.
