Elgergrass Prayer Plant
The Prayer Plant doesn't just look good, it feels amazing too! The tiny hairs cover the leaves and stems of the Calathea Elgergrass giving it a soft, velvety feel. It is pet-friendly and non-toxic too, so you don't have to keep it away from pets or resist stroking its beautiful patterned leaves!
The Calathea Elgergrass is often nicknamed the Prayer Plant because its leaves tend to fold up as though praying at night. So don't panic if this happens! Watch it wake up in the morning if you are up early enough.
This Prickle Plant is ideal for homes with less natural light as the Velvet Calathea is shade tolerant and happy being kept in low light, but you'll see the best of them in bright, indirect light. The Prayer Plant is perfect for any size home as it won't get bigger than 90cm.
Coming from Central America, the Calathea plant likes warm and humid conditions. To care for your Prayer Plant best, keep it in temperatures between 18-23Ā°C, water it regularly, and mist often. If its leaves are dropping, give it more water. Or, if the leaves start to brown, it needs more humidity.
