Rattlesnake Plant (Calathea lancifolia)
One of the very best indoor ornamental houseplants, Rattlesnake Calathea has long, medium green leaves with dark decorative spots. The undersides of the leaves are deep purple. A beautiful accent plant for the home or patio, Calathea lancifolia grows to 30” tall and creates a magnificent specimen. Of all the Calatheas that we have grown, this one is the most resistant to tip-and-edge-browning, being virtually free of that cultural issue. As with others in this family, keep the soil evenly moist and grow in a well-drained potting mix. Also called Calathea insignis.

How do you rate this product? Received this plant a month or so and it has TRIPLED in size! Very easy grower and likes to be misted twice a day. This is one beautiful plant. Have been a customer for years and every plant has done well. Thank you Logee's. (Posted on 8/1/2017)
