Care Instructions for Calathea Lancifolia

Light Requirements
Calathea Lancifolia thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves. If the light is too low, the plant may become leggy and lose its vibrant color.

Watering
Water the plant when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Calathea prefers consistently moist soil, but avoid waterlogging. Use distilled or filtered water if possible, as it is sensitive to chemicals commonly found in tap water.

Humidity
This plant enjoys high humidity levels. Aim for a humidity range of 50% to 70%. Consider using a humidifier, placing the pot on a pebble tray filled with water, or misting the leaves regularly to maintain adequate humidity.

Temperature
Calathea Lancifolia prefers temperatures between 65°F to 80°F (18°C to 27°C). Protect it from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.

Soil
Use a well-draining potting mix, ideally one that retains moisture without becoming soggy. A mix designed for tropical houseplants or a blend of peat, pine bark, and perlite works well.

Fertilization
Feed your Calathea Lancifolia with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce or stop feeding during the fall and winter months when growth slows.

Pruning
Remove any yellowing or damaged leaves by cutting them at the base. This practice encourages new growth and helps maintain the plant’s health.

Repotting
Repot the plant every two years to refresh its soil and provide more space for growth. Choose a pot that is one size larger than the current one, ensuring it has drainage holes.

Pest Management
Regularly inspect for pests such as spider mites, aphids, or mealybugs. If detected, treat them promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.

By following these care guidelines, your Calathea Lancifolia can thrive and add beauty to your indoor space.
