Slim upright leaves striped in two shades of green

Slender, pale green leaves ruled with dark stripes, standing up in a tidy clump. They lift and close at dusk, so it looks different at night than it does at breakfast.

Narrow, upright leaves in a pale silvery green, each one ruled with darker stripes running off the midrib. Calathea Freddy grows in a tidy clump rather than sprawling, and the leaves lift and fold closed in the evening, so the plant reads differently at night than it does over breakfast.

Good to know:

Light: bright but indirect, direct sun washes the stripes out
Water: keep the soil lightly moist, never soggy
Humidity: enjoys it, so a Brisbane summer suits it
Habit: upright and clumping, stays contained on a desk or side table
Safe around cats and dogs

It's a good pick for someone who already owns the easy stuff, which makes it a solid birthday plant gift. It sits just as well among our sympathy plants, there's a second leaf pattern waiting in calathea plants, and there's more in the same vein across our living plant gifts.

Add-ons: choose a pot, giftware or a greeting card on this page before you check out.

Please note: every plant is a living thing, so leaf count, height and shape vary a little from the photo.
