Plants of the Month

6” Calathea (Assorted)

Currently available in: Peacock, Silver Plate, Zebrina, Rufibarba, Lancifolia, Setosa, White Star, Medallion, and more. Native to tropical South America, Calatheas thrive in warm environments with indirect light—perfect for brightening indoor spaces.

Signature trait: Calatheas gently move their leaves in response to light—often folding up at night and opening again in the day, which is why they’re sometimes called “prayer plants.”

Quick care: Bright/medium indirect light • Keep lightly moist (never soggy) • Higher humidity helps • Avoid harsh direct sun.

10” Calathea (Assorted)

Currently available: Medallion, Peacock, Rufibarba, Setosa, Warscewiczii, Zebrina, Wheat and more. Larger Calatheas create an instant tropical focal point with broad, patterned leaves and rich color variation.

Bonus: Calatheas are non-toxic and pet-friendly, making them a beautiful option for homes, offices, and reception areas.

Did You Know? / Upcoming Events

Trivia of the Month: White Bird is sometimes called the “giant bird of paradise” because its blooms resemble a white bird in flight— and it’s closely related to the banana plant, which is why it has those lush, tropical leaves.

Upcoming Event: June 5–6 • Flori Expo
