Features: Commonly known as Rattlesnake plant, Calathea lancifolia is a prayer plant, the common name for plants that tend to fold their foliage as night falls. Prayer plants include plants in the following genera:  Calathea, Maranta, Stromanthe, and Ctenanthe.  Calathea are grown for their beautifully ornamental leaves. The long slender leaves have wavy edges, and have a lime green base with deep green oval markings on the top surface, with burgundy undersides. Calathea lancifolia has been reclassified as Goeppertia insignis.  
Usage/Use: Not for human or animal consumption.

Scientific: Calathea lancifolia
Common: Rattlesnake Plant
Safety: Pet Safe
Product Brand: Color Full™ Lancifolia
Hardy Temp.: 60 - 85
Indoor Lighting: Low, Moderate
Mature Height: 12 - 30
Leaf Type: Lime green with dark green spots on the upper surface, burgundy-purple undersides
Growth Habit: Mounded
Moisture: Consistent
Maintain Effort: High
Maintenance:
  • For optimal performance, keep at 60-85°F (15-29°C).
  • Prefers higher humidity to prevent leaf edges from browning.
  • Feed once per month at half strength when plant is actively growing.
  • Protect furniture when watering.
  • Calathea prefer shady areas with bright shade to low light (not not too dim!)  Directly in front of windows that have no direct sun will work.  Windows with early morning or late afternoon sun are also great options. Avoid mid-day direct sun.
  • They need moderate to high levels of humidity with leaf damage occurring when humidity levels drop to 40% or less.
  • They should not be watered with tap water, unless it has been filtered. Distilled water is a good option as well. The plants are sensitive to impurities and salts in tap water, which can cause leaf edges to burn.
  • Calathea also prefers to have moist, but not wet soils. If the soil gets too dry it can cause leaf curl, which is a symptom of dry soil. Water when the top inch or so of soil is dry. If your soil is very dry you may want to soak your pot in water until the soil is rehydrated. It can take half an hour or more to rehydrate the soil. Allow the pot to drain once the soil is moist through.
  • Do not allow the plant to sit in water over extended periods of time.
  • Add some perlite and/or orchid bark to help fluff up the potting mix and provide better drainage. 
  • It will do best with high humidity. A pebble tray may help add humidity if needed, but a humidifier is a better option.
