Calathea is a herbaceous perennial from the Tropical Americas like Brazil, Guyana, Columbia and Nicaragua. The handsome leaves are the attraction for tropical gardeners and indoor plant lovers as well.

Calethea requires good drainage, high humidity, medium light and warm night temperatures, which makes it somewhat difficult to grow. Water thoroughly, keep soil evenly moist to touch (not saturated). Soil for calathea should be highly organic and well drained. Don't let sit in water. Low humidity and direct sunlight will cause leaf burn.
