I find your videos so helpful. Thanks for all of your insights into Calathea care...I just dove right in and bought 10 calatheas and an now devouring all the information I can in order to help them thrive.
I love the calathea. After watching this video I'm a little frightened because I just fertilized them and hope that I did not overdo it. Right now I am slowly killing my Freddie calathea. It literally curls up and turns brown right in front of my eyes. I'm sure that it hates me because all I have to do is look in its direction and another leaf curls and dies. The longer it sits in front of me the more it dies. I do believe I did this by transplanting it and mucking with the roots. This particular plant has been a learning experience and it has almost most-definitely died for the cause. I haven't given up and I have every intention of buying another but it will be younger and I can climatize it a lot easier slowly getting used to living here. I am in Manitoba Canada 🇨🇦 and at this very moment it is minus 42 celsius and my humidifier runs night and day. Thanks for all the great tips and crossing my fingers that all of my care has not been their demise. 😁
I think that the calathea network is the most beautiful one. But you need to see it in person. Because it's a discreet beauty that doesn't translate as well on the screen as when you have it in front of you. I think, what made me so interested in it is the grid pattern. Nature rarely creates squares. It usually has round forms.
as someone who bought a mislabeled calathea that i adore so much, this is extremely helpful! with all the delicate yet demanding care and beautiful personalities, i plan on buying more lol thanks!!
I see this plant its a fussy need attention but its beautiful! I have that starting browning leaves I think its of lack humidity in my place. Thanks for the tip and I learned your video.
Awesome video! I have a few calatheas too and they are beautiful. Currently struggling with the medallion one and pinstripe. When I bought them they came in very compacted soil. I didn’t know any better at the time. Gonna try to repot and use a different soil.
So helpful! I'm a new plant daddy and I don't know, I picked out a peacock Calathea because it just spoke to me at the store. But boy am I struggling to keep it in good health. After 4 days of getting it I realized that the edges of some leaves started to wilt and that not all the leaves were pointing up at night, so its come to my attention that humidity and distilled water are key. I hope to invest in a humidifier, since I live in the midwest where winters can be harsh. QUESTION. What kind of humidifiers would help this plant thrive? A cool, warm or ultrasonic mist? thanks!
I’m a newbie and have just bought 3 calatheas I didn’t realise what I was getting into 😖 Think I’ll put them in the bath/shower room and hope for the best! 🌫 🪴
It's much easier to buy a decent humidifier and just leave it running all day. Unless you have a big family that are showering in there, the humidity isn't much different than other rooms in the house. It's a myth that all bathrooms are humid.
Thanks for your videos. Your calatheas are gorgeous. I wondered why the leaves turn yellow and brown around the edges at the same time? I have many of the ones you have here, and I’m trying to learn about each one of them. Is filtered water from your fridge ok to use? ThankYou very much .☺️
I've had my orbifolia for about 4 years, but I divided it into two about 18 months ago. It struggled a bit after dividing, but I think it is back on track now.
Whats your opinion with growing a white fusion in a leuchuza self watering pot ? Have you experimented with self watering pots with calatheas ? I have got one of my philodendron verrucosums in a lechuza sw pot & so far so good. I have some more pots coming & thought about trying it out on my wfusion what do you think ? BTW great vids & your plants are gorgeous. Glad I found your channel, Thanks .
Ack. I made a really rookie move. Bought a Calatheia today before researching. I put it on a pebble tray and raised the temp in the house. Do you think the tray will provide enough humidity and I have it in a western window. Will that be enough or do I need a greenhouse. Don’t really have the room since our homes are offices,gyms, etc, but I don’t want to lose it. Help.
Thank you for your advice! Recently got the Ornata a few days ago without knowing anything about them - just cause they looked pretty. Despite the compact soil (we don't have any other type in my city), it's been doing pretty well and is currently sprouting a new leaf. I uknowingly replanted it as soon as I brought it home in a much bigger pot, so there's always the risk of root rot. Thankfully, it's always humid here and almost no chemicals in our water. Kinda worried about the winter though, as I'll have to bring it indoors.
Lots of great calathea care tips here, particularly the info about touching leaves turning brown. That's something I've noticed happens a lot myself but no one else seems to mention it.
I heard Calatheas are a bit funky when it comes to care and it discouraged me for years, but i saw one today in supermarket, it was lonely... I felt sorry and decided to give it loving home. Hope your care tips will help me not to kill it 🙄 thank you for such informative video. Subscribed! 😀
@@22dolxxxphin22 it's doing great, it's getting plenty of indirect sunlight and lots of humidity, as i've put small humidifier right next to it. I think it gained about 8-10 leaves since i got it. It can be scary at first, but since it has good light and moisture it'll be doing just fine 🤗
😊 my calithia warcez. It has a bloom on it . I didn't know my beautiful plant did that. Maybe I'm doing something right? But the weird thing is that in the middle of the bloom there are groups of two weird looking things, I wish that I could put a picture on here, that come up and out of the bloom. They look a little like a long teardrop upside down so the big part of the teardrop is a part that's growing up and out. I have no idea what you call them, but they are more fragile than the leaves are ! If that's at all possible 😂. Are they supposed to fall out ?😢😮 I'm very grateful I have a BLOOM coming out of the middle of the tallest stock BUT I'm terrified that I'm doing something wrong with the flower. If you wouldn't mind answering me back? I really appreciate your videos, they're a big help. I have two different kinds of calathea plants. The other one is the lemon lime color and it just doesn't want to grow, it's just a little squirt, and it's decided it's going to stay that way. It only has two leaves on it and it's right where the other ones are, so I can't figure it. Same everything. So one's flowering and the other one won't grow😅😊 thank you very much, for all that you do, sincerely, Brooke Whitehead PS I am disabled and this is my hobby and what a wonderful hobby to have... My whole house is greenery and people just take a deep breath when they come in 😁❤️🌿🪴🌱
They are absolutely beautiful.. My favorite is crimson.. No matter how many you kill.. 🙃 It's impossible to resist them.. I'm totally in love with them.. Though I'm struggling with them but still not ready to give up on them.. Your tips would certainly help.. Thanks really appreciate it..
Me too ! My first was a Calathea orbifolia, I tried everything from changing shelves changed her soil . I even bought a midifirer . I gave up an took her apart now am growing her babies fingers crossed I get a plant out of one of them . Just bought the madallion now her leaves are curling 🤢
Your calatheas are gorgeous!! Did you buy them that big or did you grow them? I have 18 calatheas all the size of your Dottie. Can they be grown from that little to as big as yours? I have had them all for about 9 months now, and luckily have not killed any yet. Thank you for this great information.
I wouldn't say for definite, but I suspect that your "dottie" could in fact be an "Illustris". They are identical when young , its only as the new leaves get bigger you get the light green stripes like a flamestar. The pink colour tends to fade on the striped leaves also. I know this from personal experience as I bought a dottie that was in fact an illustris , I can see the same green stripes starting on yours.
Many thanks for pointing this out. Id never seen the illustris before, but I think you might be right. It'll be very interesting to see what happens as it grows. :)
Thank you for sharing I just divided my calathea... And I've been worried by its 'dormant'.. 😢 Because it doesn't show any good signs after it... The leaves are half curling... Breaks my heart and I kind of regret for dividing it...
.. During winter we all go a little dormant and look like a disaster.. When the light returns in February and springtime begins we return back to life.. Why would our indoor plants be any different?? 🤗.. Winter means taking a break..
Wow! That was so thorough. No doubt will be very helpful as I just purchased 4 Calatheas. You really know your stuff - thank you so much for sharing your in depth knowledge and experience!
What can I do to keep calathea leaves from curling? I have a humidifier, a moisture meter and watering meter. Should I repot it to see if they have root rot?
My Orbifolia has one leaf that has yellow areas and One new leaf has brown edges. It stays in my bathroom with 5 other Calatheas. This is the only kid with yellow issues.
Ty for all the helpful vids! What should I do to the leaves that are curling or drying out? Do you recommend cutting them if they do not return to normal? Ty!
My geoppertia insignis is booming. Loves its locarion. My geoppertia makoyana hates its life. I recently went in and did a full rehaul. Brought down to root/rhizome, and put all new mix. Use a modified chunky mix with peatmoss added for extra water retention. And smaller grain size than i use for my aroids, which lets me water more often without worry. I mist them daily 2-3x and i provide 3 humidifiers keeping the himidity in the house around 60-70 %. Hoping that'll fix it up. Its a cathedral windows and its grown A LOT since 8 got it as a little 3" plant and oooked great foe the longest time. Vut the leaf edges were crisping and the colors looked washed out, so i figured the plant was grtting inconsistent humidity and too much light. But i moved it and dude threw a FIT. Its leaves went crinkly and brittle. It stopped its new frowth and the whole thing just looked terrible. Moved a couple more times trying ro find best spot, and decided to just pull it out, cut off all yhe gross growth, clean the rhizome, and plant in new mix in a smaller container. She hasnt bounced back yet, but. She seems to have stopped getting worse.
Even with automated constant 55-60% humidity, my rufibarba is still getting crispy edges. Even so, it puts out growth. But I find it a bit ridiculous to see calatheas sold in the winter, and they're quite pricey. They look nice and lush coming straight out of the greenhouse, but they're never gonna survive winter dryness without humidifiers, which not many run.
Hello, just found your channel and want to say thank you very much for an interesting and informative video. No hesitation in subscribing. Thanks again.😊
I recently got a baby pinstripe calathea, and I'm killing it. Really doing it very wrong, considering I'm from a tropical country.. I hope it revives itself
Your plants are beautiful but you present them a bit roughly in the handling. Sorry! Show us the plant all around. They are all very beautiful by the way! Thanks for sharing!
I find your video really helpful. I do have a problem with my Medallion I just trimmed 3 leaves due to leaves drying at the edges. Based on your video I need to buy a humidifier to keep them healthy.
Thank you for such an informative video. I just received a rattle snake one as a gift. i see some webbing and am worried about pest. I have it quarantined. What is the safest way to get rid of pest for a Calathea?
I HAVE A GOOD SIZED COLLECTION OF CALETHIAS HOWEVER, I HAVE A HECK OF A TIME WITH THE PEACOCK. THEY WILL LIVE A YEAR OR TWO AND THEN BLEACH OUT AND DIE. ALL THE WHILE, I HAVE NOT CHANGED ANY OF THE CONDITIONS THAT MADE THEM HALPY. WHAT DO I DO?
I just added the velvetleaf Calathea to my collection. It's two new leaves stopped growing and are going brown/ transparent within a week and they are still rolled up have not opened. Does this sound like bugs possibly, I cannot see any but there was a spider on it and spiders only hang out where there is food?
Great video. You've covered all the bases but the roseopicta dies when temps drop below 15c. If you don't have central heating, like me, you'll need a plastic box and heat mat. 😢
Hey, what fertiliser do you use please? I have 6 types of calatheas doing so beautifully but now it's fertiliser season and I don't know where to start x
One of my favorite plant species, a bit fussy, but a very sexy plant indeed, many factors to keeping them happy and looking their best, but to me draining is the most important factor with having them, your plants are beautiful and sexy !!😁😁
No direct sunlight in my room, I work overnights so the curtain is drawn tight always. So I have a 300w LED plant light hanging from the ceiling. It shines on all of my plants. I think I've been getting lucky with keeping this fella farthest away from the lights. I have a smaller light hanging over my cthanthes. These tips are great! I'm no green thumb, I just buy cool looking houseplants and plop them in my room😁
Thank you for your advice on Calathea. I was given my first Calathea for my birthday last month. It is beautiful and all your plants 🪴 are beautiful.
I find your videos so helpful. Thanks for all of your insights into Calathea care...I just dove right in and bought 10 calatheas and an now devouring all the information I can in order to help them thrive.
Omg 10!! Just the one I have stresses me out 😂 good luck!!
I did a similar thing, found loads of them really cheap so bought 5 😭
Guilty as well three new ones plus the one I already had 😂

Cool mist is generally the best
Right now we are living in Salinas California and somebody has given me Calathea but planning to move Arizona where my kids are living.
I’m a newbie and have just bought 3 calatheas I didn’t realise what I was getting into 😖 Think I’ll put them in the bath/shower room and hope for the best! 🌫 🪴
I hope your bathroom has good lighting! I wish I could put mine in the bathroom for the humidity but I can’t because I have no sun in my bathroom 😪

What do think about adding coarse orchid bark and perlite to potting soil?
Your calatheas are really beautiful.
Thanks for sharing.
If you add stress coat to your water it's perfect for them
How long do you have your biggest orbifolia? It’s so beautiful 😊
I've had my orbifolia for about 4 years, but I divided it into two about 18 months ago. It struggled a bit after dividing, but I think it is back on track now.
But I still love the orbiofolia which was my first calathea crush 💚
Hello.. what temperature do you think is ideal in the winter
Whats your opinion with growing a white fusion in a leuchuza self watering pot ? Have you experimented with self watering pots with calatheas ? I have got one of my philodendron verrucosums in a lechuza sw pot & so far so good. I have some more pots coming & thought about trying it out on my wfusion what do you think ?
BTW great vids & your plants are gorgeous. Glad I found your channel, Thanks .
my MARANTA I had 4 leaves and turned edges yellow and brown and lost all leaves and new leaves have curled in no leaves what happened ?
Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don’t really have the room since our homes are offices,gyms, etc, but I don’t want to lose it. Help.
I think it depends upon your ambient humidity. Pebble trays can increase humidity a little bit, but they can't overcome really arid conditions.
Make sure it isn't getting direct sum rom the window!
the video did not tell us how to not kill the calatheas lol

I killed my calathea, so I ignored it and now it’s sprouting new leaves. Some leaves are dying again. 😞 sigh
I got an orbifolia pretty recently and it’s been have a hard time with humidity. I got an humidifier though so hopefully it starts to do better.

I was just watching again and noticed your Dottie didn't look like mine. I think it's Illustris as well. Thanks for all your time in these videos!
What is ur soil mix for ur beautiful plant please tell
Why houseplants growers never talk about ph of soil & water for calathea plant? It's as important as sunlight & temperature !!!
Thank you for sharing

Yes I would really like 2 know if self watering systems will work on these. DO YOU OR ANYONE know please?
This video is certainly red book on calatheas. Added this video in my favourite watch list.
Ty for all the helpful vids!
What should I do to the leaves that are curling or drying out? Do you recommend cutting them if they do not return to normal? Ty!
Thanks for your videos, Very useful.
I fert burned all my calatheas last year, so heart breaking watching all those leaves die off 😞
On the point of leaves damaging other leaves, One of the new leaves on my rattlesnake plant literally pierced through an older leaf as it grew up
Metal 🎸
How do you deal with pest ? They’re magnets for spider mites
I gotta rattlesnake plant friend three pieces I plant water every two wk but then I put out in rain but not rain hard what can I do
I’ve reported my Calathea with bark and potting soil. Is this ok?
She is my nemesis.. I gave up... Might give it a final try...
I to am a newbe im in love with these plants 😍 💕 I so want want to do gd with em im still learning thank you 😊
Please please
Please
Which one get higher
Makoyana or medallion
Why u not making new videos, ur last video is around 2 year ago
I would die in humidity above 40%
Would you use a humidity tray with pebbles
When should I repot my calathea
I’ve just got a calathea madalion her leaves are curling, what’s wrong with her ? I bottom water her , I did mist her maybe she didn’t like it
I always use bottled water for all my indoor plants
Период адаптации, избыток света, слишком жарко (хотя у меня и при 29 градусов не скручивают листья)- несколько причин может быть
My geoppertia insignis is booming. Loves its locarion.
My geoppertia makoyana hates its life. I recently went in and did a full rehaul. Brought down to root/rhizome, and put all new mix. Use a modified chunky mix with peatmoss added for extra water retention. And smaller grain size than i use for my aroids, which lets me water more often without worry.
I mist them daily 2-3x and i provide 3 humidifiers keeping the himidity in the house around 60-70 %.
Hoping that'll fix it up. Its a cathedral windows and its grown A LOT since 8 got it as a little 3" plant and oooked great foe the longest time. Vut the leaf edges were crisping and the colors looked washed out, so i figured the plant was grtting inconsistent humidity and too much light.
But i moved it and dude threw a FIT.
Its leaves went crinkly and brittle. It stopped its new frowth and the whole thing just looked terrible. Moved a couple more times trying ro find best spot, and decided to just pull it out, cut off all yhe gross growth, clean the rhizome, and plant in new mix in a smaller container.
She hasnt bounced back yet, but. She seems to have stopped getting worse.
Thanks for sharing
how have u been?
Even with automated constant 55-60% humidity, my rufibarba is still getting crispy edges. Even so, it puts out growth.
But I find it a bit ridiculous to see calatheas sold in the winter, and they're quite pricey. They look nice and lush coming straight out of the greenhouse, but they're never gonna survive winter dryness without humidifiers, which not many run.
Hello, just found your channel and want to say thank you very much for an interesting and informative video. No hesitation in subscribing. Thanks again.😊
I recently got a baby pinstripe calathea, and I'm killing it. Really doing it very wrong, considering I'm from a tropical country.. I hope it revives itself
I like calatheas, but I struggle keeping them happy.
I hope the stromanthes triostar I have would be more forgiving 🤞
Your plants are beautiful but you present them a bit roughly in the handling. Sorry! Show us the plant all around. They are all very beautiful by the way! Thanks for sharing!
I find your video really helpful. I do have a problem with my Medallion
I just trimmed 3 leaves due to leaves drying at the edges. Based on your video I need to buy a humidifier to keep them healthy.
Wow I love your calatheas! Thank you for the tips.
Thank you for such an informative video. I just received a rattle snake one as a gift. i see some webbing and am worried about pest. I have it quarantined. What is the safest way to get rid of pest for a Calathea?
Hi - was reviewing your video as I had trouble with a few calatheas in leca. Your advice is very clear and comprehensive. Thank you
I HAVE A GOOD SIZED COLLECTION OF CALETHIAS HOWEVER, I HAVE A HECK OF A TIME WITH THE PEACOCK. THEY WILL LIVE A YEAR OR TWO AND THEN BLEACH OUT AND DIE. ALL THE WHILE, I HAVE NOT CHANGED ANY OF THE CONDITIONS THAT MADE THEM HALPY. WHAT DO I DO?
seema your babiea need some repotting.. they are to crowded but very besutiful!
My Rosea medallion is really struggling pls advise light and water
Ok so you talked me out of this genus. Thanks...
3:58 It's a calathea sanderiana, ornata have more stripes
Can I keep it in air conditioned bedroom in India?
Thanks for your time and effort 😊
Wow your calatheas are absolutely beautiful 😍😍
I just added the velvetleaf Calathea to my collection. It's two new leaves stopped growing and are going brown/ transparent within a week and they are still rolled up have not opened. Does this sound like bugs possibly, I cannot see any but there was a spider on it and spiders only hang out where there is food?
also, its not the edge of the new leafs it the base and middle of the tubed leaf that is deteriorating.
Great video. You've covered all the bases but the roseopicta dies when temps drop below 15c. If you don't have central heating, like me, you'll need a plastic box and heat mat. 😢
😂
Best informative calathea care video 👍
Wee bit 😂 How's it hanging m8y
Is it okey somewhere in Arizona?
Hey, what fertiliser do you use please? I have 6 types of calatheas doing so beautifully but now it's fertiliser season and I don't know where to start x
use a well balanced 1-1-1 or a natural fertilizer like worm castings!
The name of the First Plant 😍🌱
What soil or media your using
Great plants great video thanks
Awesome. Thank you.
Good information
I love calathea
