Care Instructions
The Calathea Freddie thrives with a little extra TLC, rewarding you with its year-round beauty:
- Light: Bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid harsh, direct sun which can scorch the leaves.
- Water: Keep the soil consistently moist, but not soggy. Allow the top inch of soil to dry slightly between waterings.
- Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity. Regular misting, a pebble tray filled with water, or a humidifier can help create a happy environment.
- Toxicity: Mildly toxic to pets and humans if ingested. Keep out of reach of curious creatures.
Bellr Bonus Tip:
The Calathea Freddie prefers filtered water to avoid brown spots on the leaves. You can use rainwater or filtered tap water to keep your plant happy and healthy.
