A statement plant with striking green-striped leaves!
Calathea Orbifolia, sometimes called the Prayer Plant or Watermelon Plant, is a stunning tropical houseplant that brings a touch of the rainforest into your home. Its large, round leaves feature bold silver-green stripes, creating an elegant display that effortlessly enhances any indoor space. Like other prayer plants, its foliage moves in response to light, gently shifting up and down throughout the day.
Pet Friendly? Yes! Calathea Orbifolia is a pet-safe houseplant, making it a great choice for homes with cats and dogs.
Please Note
Due to the size of the plant and its broad leaves, some cosmetic imperfections may be present. These do not affect the health of the plant and are a natural characteristic of its growth.
