Details

    The Calathea Dottie, scientifically known as Calathea roseopicta 'Dottie', is a stunning tropical houseplant celebrated for its deep, dark green leaves with vibrant pink outlines. The oval-shaped foliage has a velvety texture and striking markings that resemble hand-painted art, making it a bold statement plant for any indoor space.

    Native to the tropical regions of South America, the Calathea Dottie thrives in warm, humid environments. Its unique foliage and pet-friendly nature make it a favorite for plant lovers who want to bring the beauty of the rainforest into their homes.

    • Common Names: Calathea Dottie, Rose-Painted Calathea
    • Botanical Name: Calathea roseopicta 'Dottie'
    • Size: Grows up to 1-2 feet tall and wide indoors with proper care.

    Care Instructions

    • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain vibrant leaf colors. Avoid direct sunlight, which can fade its striking patterns.
    • Water: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, and use distilled or rainwater if possible, as this plant is sensitive to chemicals in tap water.
    • Humidity: Thrives in high humidity. Mist regularly, use a pebble tray, or place near a humidifier to mimic its natural environment.
    • Feeding: Fertilize every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a diluted liquid fertilizer. Reduce feeding in fall and winter.
    • Temperature: Maintain temperatures between 65°F and 80°F. Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 60°F.
    • Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix rich in organic matter.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    1. Why are the edges of my Calathea Dottie’s leaves browning?
      Brown edges are often caused by low humidity or using tap water with high mineral content. Increase humidity and use filtered, distilled, or rainwater.

    2. Does the Calathea Dottie close its leaves at night?
      Yes! Like other Calatheas, it exhibits nyctinasty, where its leaves move in response to light, folding up at night and spreading out during the day.

    3. Can I propagate my Calathea Dottie?
      Propagation is best done through division during repotting. Ensure each division has healthy roots and foliage.
