Calathea White Fusion – Plant of the moment

Posted on by Phil Robinson in Houseplants, Plant Of The Week

This Fusion White variety of Calathea has lovely green and white marbling on the leaves with pale purple undersides. It is a wonderfully showy, decorative plant that is bound to attract attention.
In their native habitats, Calathea species are also known for their striking inflorescences. When grown as houseplants, however, it is all about the foliage as they rarely flower indoors.
Tips
☀️Calatheas prefer indirect sunlight avoiding the afternoon sun.
Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil become dry.
