Calathea Dottie Plants for Sale Online
Calathea Roseopicta Dottie is a trending indoor plant known for its shiny black leaves splashed with a hot pink halo. The unique foliage is elliptic and so intricate that it appears as if it wear hand-painted.
As a member of the Prayer Plant family, the Dottie likes a medium to bright, indirect light at most, as like its cultivar, any heavy direct sun will burn the leaves. Your Calathea Dottie plant care regimen should also include moderate to high humidity levels and the application of a houseplant fertilizer in spring and summer.
When watering your Calathea, we recommend waiting until the top inch of the soil is dry in between each watering. Additionally a well draining potting mix and a planter with drainage holes is crucial to protecting your tropical plant from root rot.
Please note that Calathea plants get a bad reputation for being finnicky and high maintenance, but as long as you follow this Calathea Dottie care guide, you should have no issues in growing a flourishing prayer plant.
Calathea Dottie is the perfect house plant for adding dazzling color to your home's décor! The vivid dark purple and pink leaves are stunning.
