Prayer Plant (Calathea) – Lush Indoor Foliage Plant
The Prayer Plant, often called the Calathea, is loved for its bold leaf patterns and gentle personality. Its leaves subtly move throughout the day, creating a living, breathing connection with nature inside your space.
Perfect for bedrooms, living rooms, and workspaces, Calatheas thrive in indirect light and reward you with lush growth when cared for gently. They’re also pet-safe, making them ideal for modern homes with furry companions.
