Calathea sanderiana Special Care or Planting instructions
It likes a warm, humid and semi-shaded environment. Due to the plant's shade tolerance, it is very suitable for decoration, beautification and greening in the family living room. It can be placed for a long time for viewing in a brighter room. Placing it in a darker room for 4-6 weeks has not much impact on its growth either. Therefore, it can be placed in a darker room for a long time and still grow well.
- Light
Requires bright, indirect light; avoid direct sunlight as it can cause leaf burn.
- Water
Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Water daily during the growing season, and reduce frequency in winter.
