Flavia is a Calathea pilosa.  She is a stunning, low-maintenance plant known for its unique, velvety leaves with distinctive textures and patterns. Here's how to keep it thriving:

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves.
  • Water: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Use filtered or distilled water to prevent fluoride buildup.
  • Humidity: Thrives in high humidity. Regular misting or a humidity tray can help maintain the ideal environment.
  • Temperature: Enjoys temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Avoid drafts and sudden temperature changes.
  • Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix, such as one designed for tropical plants.
  • Additional Information:
