Jungle Club Calathea Lancifolia

Yes, this plant is non-toxic and completely safe for both cats and dogs, making it an excellent choice for pet-friendly households.

It prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, which can scorch the delicate, patterned leaves and cause them to fade.

The goal is to keep the soil consistently moist but never soggy. Check the top inch of soil regularly; if it feels dry to the touch, it is time to water.

Yes, like most Calatheas, it appreciates a humid environment. If your home is dry, consider placing it near a humidifier or grouping it with other plants to create a more favorable microclimate.

A 6-inch pot is a standard starter size that provides enough room for the plant to grow comfortably for a season or two. You won't need to worry about repotting immediately, but keep an eye on root growth over the next year.

Calatheas can be sensitive to chemicals found in tap water, such as chlorine or fluoride. If you notice brown tips on the leaves, try using filtered or distilled water instead.
