Plant details
Introducing the Calathea Royal Standard
The Calathea Royal Standard is a bold, architectural houseplant that commands attention in any room. Its large, deep green leaves are adorned with striking pale green feathering along the midrib, creating a pattern that feels both regal and organic. The undersides are a rich purple, adding a dramatic pop of color every time the leaves catch the light or fold upward at dusk.
A Living Ritual
Like all Calatheas, the Royal Standard is a prayer plant — its leaves rise and fold each evening in a gentle, rhythmic movement that makes it feel truly alive. Place it in your living room, bedroom, or office and watch it become the centerpiece of your space.
Care Highlights
- Light: Bright to medium indirect light. Avoid direct sun to preserve the vivid leaf patterns.
- Water: Keep soil evenly moist. Use filtered, distilled, or rainwater to prevent tip burn from chlorine and fluoride.
- Humidity: Thrives at 60%+ humidity. A humidifier or pebble tray is highly recommended.
- Temperature: Prefers 65–80°F (18–27°C). Avoid cold drafts and air vents.
- Soil: Well-draining, moisture-retentive potting mix — a peat or coco coir blend works beautifully.
- Fertilizer: Feed monthly in spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer at half strength.
