Height: 45 cm
Light: Calathea lancifolia prefers bright, indirect light. It thrives in environments with filtered sunlight or partial shade. Direct sunlight can scorch its leaves, so it’s best to place it in a spot where it receives gentle, indirect light throughout the day.
Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist during the growing season (spring and summer). Water thoroughly when the top inch of the soil feels dry, but avoid allowing the soil to dry out completely. Reduce watering in the winter, allowing the top couple of inches of soil to dry out between waterings.
Soil: Use a well-draining, peat-based potting mix. A mix formulated for tropical plants or African violets works well. Good drainage is essential to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.
Fertilizing: Feed Calathea lancifolia every 4-6 weeks during the growing season with a balanced, diluted fertilizer. Reduce or stop fertilizing in fall and winter when growth slows down.
Pruning and Maintenance: Remove any yellow or brown leaves promptly to maintain the plant’s health and appearance. Trim back any leggy growth to encourage a bushier plant.
