Calathea Rattlesnake Care Guide
Light
Provide Bright diffused light, as direct sunlight will cause the leaves to fade and lose its precious markings. Rattlesnakes grow on the canopy floor, so they can tolerate shade, but will grow much better with indirect light
Water
Keep soil moist but don't let it sit in water as it is susceptible to root rot. Little and often is a good watering policy
Temperature
Warm to high temperatures are preferred, ideally between 18-23° C but can cope with as low as 15°C. Please keep away from draughts
Feeding
Apply a weak dose of a nitrogen rich foliage fertiliser once or twice a month during the growing season.
Grooming
Wipe leaves with a damp cloth to remove dust, so that it can breathe properly
Care
High humidity levels are a must. Stand on a wet pebble tray to improve humidity and mist frequently. Pop it in the shower from time to time to give an extra boost
