Calathea 'Amagris' Care Guide
Light
I like a lot of diffused light, but direct sunlight will cause the leaves to fade and lose my precious markings.
Because I grow on the canopy floor, I can tolerate shade, but I grow much better with indirect light.
Water
I like my soil to be moist, but I am also susceptible to root rot, so don't let me sit in water.
Think little and often as a watering policy.
Temperature
I Prefer warm to high temperatures, ideally between 18-23°C but I can cope with as low as 15°C.
Avoid draughts and ensure I have reasonable ventilation.
Feeding
Apply a weak dose of a nitrogen rich foliage fertiliser once or twice a month during the growing season.
Grooming
Wipe my leaves with a damp cloth to remove dust, so that I can breathe properly.
Care
I like humidity so please occasionally spray me with water.
