Contrasting Foliage Colors for Instant Intrigue

A little bit of neon and a little bit of dramatic come together with this unique house plant. The Calathea Dottie has large, dark green, almost purple leaves with bright pink veining. The underside of the leaves is pinkish-red, and feeds into red stems. Leathery and shiny, you can’t help but stare at this plant!

Many plants in the arrowroot family are also known affectionately as Prayer Plants due to their day-to-night movements. At night, they tend to raise their leaves in prayer by pointing up, and then drop them again during the day. So don’t be alarmed as you see your leaves move!

Pet lovers can happily add this non-toxic plant to their collection. Calathea Dottie works great in indoor spaces, as it prefers bright but indirect light and well-draining soil.

Most often a house plant, you can also grow this variety outside in containers or in-ground in zone 10, but keep in mind it can only tolerate temperatures as low as 60°F. Relatively fast-growing, Calathea Dottie grows up to 2 ft high and 1-2 ft wide.
