Product Details

Calathea crocata, also called the Eternal flame, is a unique member of the prayer plant family, known for its vibrant orange flower spikes that rise elegantly above deep green leaves with purple undersides. Unlike most Calatheas, which are admired mainly for their foliage, this cultivar is prized for its showy blooms that can last for weeks under proper conditions. To flower, it needs consistently moist soil, high humidity, and warm, stable temperatures with medium filtered light. While it requires more care than other Calatheas, the reward is spectacular: a plant that combines exotic blossoms with the dynamic, nyctinastic leaf movement typical of its family.
