    Plant at a Glance

    Botanical Name: Calathea Orbifolia
    Common Name: Calathea Orbifolia

    Native to Bolivia, Calathea Orbifolia is prized for its large, rounded leaves marked with soft silver-green stripes. It’s a statement plant that brings calm and elegance to any room. Fun fact: because of its broad leaves and love of humidity, it can help raise moisture levels slightly in dry indoor spaces - perfect for A/C-heavy homes.

    Light Guide
    Calathea Orbifolio — Light Guide

    Calathea Orbifolia prefers bright, indirect light, but also copes well with medium light. In a UAE apartment, a spot near a filtered window or in a well-lit room without harsh sun is ideal. Direct sunlight can scorch or fade its delicate foliage.
    Watering

    Keep the soil consistently lightly moist, but never soggy. Let the top 2-3cm dry out slightly between waterings. Calatheas can be sensitive to salts and hard tap water, so filtered or distilled water is ideal. A self-watering pot is a smart choice here - it provides gentle, steady hydration from below and helps avoid root rot.
    Temperature & Humidity

    This plant thrives in temperatures between 20-28°C and appreciates high humidity. In the UAE, it will tolerate air conditioning but performs best with regular misting, a nearby pebble tray, or placement in a bathroom with natural light. Keep it away from cold drafts and drying airflow from A/C vents.
    Ongoing Care

    Dust the broad leaves gently with a soft cloth to help the plant breathe and stay vibrant. Trim any brown tips with clean scissors, following the curve of the leaf. With stable conditions and consistent care, Calathea Orbifolia rewards you with lush, slow-growing beauty.
