How often should I water my Calathea Leopardina?
Keep the soil moist at all times, but avoid water-logging it by using a pot with ample drainage. The primary risk to Calatheas is under-watering, as they love moisture and will not tolerate drying out at all. To help you maintain that moisture, use a proper Calathea soil high in water retentive ingredients like peat or coco coir.
What lighting conditions are best for Calathea Leopardina?
Calatheas are native to the jungle understory, where the canopy is providing plenty of shade. As such, they thrive in medium to low indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, which can fade the leaf patterns and cause burn spots.
Does Calathea Leopardina need high humidity?
Yes, Calathea Leopardina prefers high humidity levels. If your home is dry, consider using a humidifier, and always make sure no forced air vents are blowing near the plant, as it will quickly dry out the leaves.
