Hand-painted? Practically. I'm the Calathea Beauty Star, and my dark leaves come pinstriped in pink and white with a rich purple flip side - I flash it every evening when I fold my leaves up for the night. Yes, I move. Yes, it's mesmerising.

I'm a rainforest kid from Colombia, so give me bright-ish indirect light, consistently lightly-moist soil and as much humidity as you can muster. I'm a little fussier than average - but I'm worth it, and you know it.

What you'll get (no surprises):

  • Small - 90mm nursery pot, approx 24-28cm tall

I arrive in my original grower's nursery pot - a perfect baby ready to grow up gorgeous.

Pets: 100% pet-safe. The cat can stay.

Take the guesswork out of my watering with a Moisture Meter, and pop me in a Micro Pot in Black while I'm little.

🌱 One tree planted with every order.

Feeding your indoor plants

To get the best out of your indoor plants, you will need to feed them some food. The Good Plant Co Indoor Plant Food will provide all the nutrients they need to grow more leaves and help them stay strong. When the plant is actively growing during the warmer months, it needs a bit more food and water. During the slow growing season (cooler winter months) your plant doesn’t eat or drink as much (no extra winter layer of fat for these babies). Sometimes it’s ok to be a helicopter parent – respond to your plant’s needs. To keep the dust off your beautiful indoor plant leaves use The Good Plant Co Leaf Shine. Moral of the story, if it is growing new leaves then it will need more water and food!

We take great care in growing, packaging, and shipping your new plants so they’re ready to thrive in your home. This includes keeping them safe while they travel from our wholesale nursery to your doorstep.
