Goeppertia Species, Calathea, Prayer Plant

Per Irene Ngoo at Min's Garden @tropicaljungle in Singapore:
"Calathea orbifolia somehow makes me think of crisp striped cotton or...Read More linen fabric and picnic tablecloth. This decorative plant is a popular houseplant for its dramatic patterned leaves. Mine is growing happily in low light. This is the perfect plant choice to add a lush tropical look to any indoor or outdoor environment. In the ground, this plant gets larger and is often used as a colorful border in shadier areas. Easy to care for, they simply need a little light and moist well drained soil. The pale silver-green, rounded oval-shaped leaves are lined with both thick and thin light-green striping with pale green undersides. In time, the leaves can reach about 15-35” wide and the plant itself can reach several feet tall in its native environment, but typically grows slower and smaller indoors."
