Special features of the Calathea

The basket marante is very suitable in the office or home office because it brings a breath of fresh air. Due to its air-purifying properties, carbon dioxide is converted into oxygen, so you have fresh air to breathe.

Also at home the wicker is a very good choice, especially if you have animal friends. Because the Calathea is not poisonous. So you can easily place it near your cat, dog or other pets without any worries.

Another special feature of the basket marante is that it has a day and night rhythm, just like humans. This means that towards the evening, the Calathea puts up its leaves, through a joint between the leaf and the stem, thus disappearing into a dormant mode. At the beginning of the new day they present you their leaf dress again in full splendor.

Precisely for this phenomenon, the basket marante is also titled Prayer Plant, as this action can also be interpreted as folded hands to pray.

Calathea Care

Of course, your basket marante also needs care to grow and thrive. To avoid care mistakes, we're happy to help you out with our plant knowledge and give you a few tips on how to keep your Calathea blooming beautifully.

When caring for your Calathea, of course it depends on the location, your watering and fertilizing habits. Because your basket calathea can't always be easy.

Starting with location. As a rule, your calathea likes it in off-sun to partial shade. A direct place in the sun is therefore not welcome and can cause your green friend to form brown leaves and of course we do not want that.

In your watering habits, you should make sure that you avoid waterlogging. This can otherwise lead to the roots of your Calathea catching a mold fungus and thus it comes to a disease in your plant. For this reason, we recommend watering your Calathea regularly with a little lukewarm water.

To strengthen your basket marante, you can fertilize it monthly. This will give it the mineral boost it needs to grow and delight you with new leaves.

Since the Calathea is originally from the tropical rainforests of Brazil, it also needs high humidity. Therefore, we recommend spraying your Calathea with water from time to time. This way you can also prevent dry leaf edges or tips.
