    Calathea Beauty Star

    Botanical Name: Calathea 'Beauty Star'
    Common Name(s): Beauty Star Calathea, Peacock Calathea, Striped Calathea

    The Calathea 'Beauty Star' is an exquisite tropical plant prized for its stunning foliage and bold, eye-catching patterns. The large, oval-shaped leaves of this variety are deep green with striking white or silver stripes that create a starburst effect, giving the plant its "Beauty Star" name. The veins on the leaves are accentuated by the contrasting white markings, resembling the intricate design of a peacock’s feathers. The undersides of the leaves are a rich purple or maroon, providing a gorgeous color contrast to the top of the leaves. Native to the tropical rainforests of South America, this plant thrives in humid, shaded environments.

    The variety of Calathea thrives in bright, indirect light but should be protected from direct sunlight, as it can scorch its delicate leaves. Ideally, the temperature range for this plant is between 65-75°F (18-24°C). It flourishes in humid conditions, with humidity levels above 50%. To ensure this plant remains healthy, place it in a humid room such as a bathroom or kitchen, or use a humidifier to maintain moisture. If the air is too dry, you may notice the leaf edges curling or turning crispy. Regular misting or placing the plant on a humidity tray can help to boost moisture levels in the air.

    This Calathea variety prefers consistently moist, well-draining soil, but like most Calatheas, it is sensitive to overwatering. The soil should be kept evenly moist, allowing the top inch to dry slightly between waterings. As this plant is sensitive to chemicals commonly found in tap water (like chlorine and fluoride), it’s recommended to use room-temperature distilled or rainwater if possible.

    The Calathea 'Beauty Star' is not only known for its dramatic foliage but also for its unique ability to "dance" in response to the light. This phenomenon, called nyctinasty, causes the leaves to move upward at night and return to their normal position during the day, adding an extra layer of enchantment to its care. This plant makes a wonderful statement piece and is a favorite among collectors for its vibrant, dynamic appearance.

    Note: The Calathea 'Beauty Star' is non-toxic to both pets and humans, making it an excellent choice for households with children or animals.

For these instances, once each item is shipped, you'll receive individual tracking information for each package, so you can easily track their progress.
