FEEDING/FERTILIZER REQUIREMENT
- Apply a weak dose of a nitrogen-rich foliage fertilizer once or twice a month during the growing season.
LIGHT REQUIREMENT
- As with most variegated plants, Calathea needs plenty of diffused light however direct sunlight will cause the leaves to fade and lose their markings.
- They can tolerate some degree of shade, but the better the light conditions, the more you will be rewarded by fine foliage.
WATER REQUIREMENT
- Calathea must be kept in damp soil at all times, but definitely do not allow the plant to sit in water or in very wet soil.
