Calathea warscewiczii – Jungle Velvet Calathea
🌿💚✨
The Calathea warscewiczii, also known as the Jungle Velvet Calathea, is a truly elegant tropical houseplant admired for its soft, velvety foliage. Its elongated, dark green leaves feature striking light green patterns on top and rich burgundy-purple undersides, creating a luxurious contrast that stands out in any indoor jungle.
Key Features:
✔ Velvety, patterned foliage with deep green and lime markings
✔ Burgundy-purple undersides that add rich contrast
✔ Excellent for low-light interiors, adding lush tropical depth
✔ Naturally air-purifying, improving indoor air quality
✔ A graceful, statement plant for shaded or softly lit spaces
Care Instructions:
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light or partial shade; avoid direct sunlight to prevent leaf scorch
Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist but not soggy; allow the top 2–3 cm to dry slightly between waterings
Humidity: Thrives in high humidity – mist regularly or use a humidifier to keep leaves lush
Soil: Use a rich, well-draining potting mix suitable for tropical houseplants
Feeding: Fertilise every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer with a balanced liquid feed
Temperature: Ideal range is 18–26°C; avoid cold drafts or sudden temperature drops
Growth: Typically reaches 45–75 cm tall indoors
🌿 Tip: Use filtered or rainwater when watering, as Calatheas are sensitive to chemicals in tap water — keeping those velvety leaves at their healthiest and most vibrant.
