Calathea 'Burle Marx

21.99 $

Calathea 'Burle Marx' is an elegant houseplant, prized for its distinctively patterned foliage and rich colors. This variety of Calathea is ideal for adding a sophisticated, tropical touch to any indoor space, thanks to its attractive leaves and vibrant colors.

Origin: Calathea is native to the rainforests of South America, where it thrives naturally in shady, humid environments. Burle Marx' is a variety named after the famous Brazilian landscape architect Roberto Burle Marx, known for his love of tropical plants.

Growth: This plant has a moderate growth habit, generally reaching 30-60 cm in height. Its leaves are broad, oval, with mottled patterns of dark and light green, often with touches of silver, accented by a purple reverse. The complex patterns and deep colors of the leaves make it a highly prized houseplant.

Flowers: Calathea 'Burle Marx' occasionally produces small white flowers, but these are rarely seen in indoor cultivation. The main attraction of this plant is its decorative foliage.

Light: This plant prefers bright but indirect light. It can tolerate partial shade, but its colors will be brighter under moderate indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, which can burn the leaves.

Watering: Water regularly, keeping the soil evenly moist but not soggy. Calathea likes high ambient humidity, which can be maintained by using a humidifier or placing the plant on a tray of damp pebbles. During winter, reduce watering, but take care not to let the soil dry out completely.

Substrate: Use a light, well-draining potting mix of houseplant potting soil mixed with perlite or peat moss. Make sure the pot has good drainage to avoid water accumulation.

Toxicity: Calathea 'Burle Marx' is non-toxic to pets or humans, making it an excellent choice for homes with pets.
