  • Brand: Rooted (Rooted NYC, with greenhouses in Central Florida).
  • Product: Potted Plant
  • Variety: Calathea 'Rattlesnake' (Calathea lancifolia or Goeppertia insignis). It is considered a prayer plant due to its leaf movement.
  • Appearance: Grows unique and beautifully patterned leaves with wavy edges. (Typically, the patterns resemble a rattlesnake's skin, with dark green spots on a lighter green background and reddish-purple undersides).
  • Key Behavior: Leaves move with the rise and fall of the sun (nyctinasty), folding up at night and unfurling during the day.
  • Care Level: Adaptable and relatively easy to care for, especially for a calathea (which can sometimes be finicky).

Dimensions:

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight which can scorch leaves and fade patterns. Can tolerate medium light.
  • Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels slightly dry. Use filtered, distilled, or rainwater as Calatheas can be sensitive to chemicals in tap water, which can cause leaf tip browning.
  • Humidity: Thrives in high humidity. Mist regularly, use a pebble tray, or place near a humidifier.
  • Temperature: Prefers warm temperatures (65-80°F / 18-27°C). Avoid cold drafts.
  • Soil: Requires well-draining, rich potting mix.
  • Toxicity: Non-toxic to pets and humans.
