Calathea Dottie Prayer Plant

Say hello to the Calathea Dottie - the plant that's as sassy as it is stunning! With its bold, dark purple leaves and pink accents, this plant is like the life of the party that demands attention the moment it walks in.

But don't let its feisty attitude fool you - the Calathea Dottie is a diva that's surprisingly easy to care for. It thrives in low to medium light and prefers its soil to be kept moist (but not soaking wet). And just like any good queen, it needs a little bit of humidity to keep its leaves looking fabulous - a spritz of water every now and then will do the trick!

Not only will the Calathea Dottie add a pop of color to your space, but it's also known for its air-purifying abilities, making it the perfect plant for anyone looking to breathe a little easier. So if you want a plant that's both a statement piece and a workhorse, the Calathea Dottie is the one for you. Just don't be surprised if it starts requesting its own dressing room!

Please avoid misting your calathea, as it is not an effective way to increase humidity. Misting can also leave water sitting on the plant’s broad pink-and-green leaves, which may contribute to fungal leaf-spot diseases. Instead, consider using a small room humidifier or a pebble tray to help maintain the 60%–70% humidity that this tropical plant prefers. 

Available in the following packaging based on your preference:

• Nursery Pot - Standard plastic 4 -inch or 6-inch planter pot that can be placed inside a larger pot or left as is until it outgrows it.
• Selene Planter - Ceramic 6.5" marble planter with drainage hole and matching rose gold ceramic tray. The planter measures: 7.5" x 6.5" x 6.5" and weighs approximately 3.7 lbs. We recommend placing your plant inside the nursery pot to make it easy to water and transplant.
