Purple Orchid & Rattlesnake Calathea Garden

• The Rattlesnake Calathea brings its own drama: lance-shaped leaves with dark green spots on top and deep purple undersides that catch the light from every angle
• This is a nyctinastic plant, meaning its patterned leaves rise at night and lower during the day, creating a display that quietly shifts with the hours
• The purple orchid adds rich, saturated color that pairs unexpectedly well with the Calathea's wild patterning
• Both plants are nontoxic and pet-friendly, safe for households with cats, dogs, and kids
• Ships fresh from the farm in a gift box, arriving ready to give with no extra wrapping needed
• Backed by a 14-day freshness guarantee, with each plant inspected before shipping
• The arrangement stands approximately 16–30 inches tall at delivery and fits comfortably on shelves, side tables, or windowsills
• Care: Water about once a week when the top 2 inches of soil feel dry. The Calathea thrives in partial to full shade and appreciates regular misting or a nearby humidifier to keep humidity up. Place the orchid near a south- or east-facing window with bright indirect light.
• This item is not available for delivery to Hawaii or Alaska.

FAQs

Is this arrangement safe for pets?
Yes, both the orchid and the Rattlesnake Calathea are nontoxic and confirmed pet-friendly, making it a worry-free choice for homes with cats, dogs, or children.

How much light does this arrangement need?
The orchid does best near a south- or east-facing window with bright indirect light. The Rattlesnake Calathea is more flexible and tolerates partial to full shade, so it works well in rooms without direct sun.

What's the deal with the leaves moving?
The Rattlesnake Calathea is nyctinastic, meaning its leaves naturally rise at night and lower during the day. It's a subtle, living movement you'll actually notice over time.

How often should I water it?
Water approximately once a week when the top 2 inches of soil feel dry. The Calathea prefers consistently moist (not soggy) soil, so check before reaching for the watering can again.

Does the Rattlesnake Calathea need a humidifier?
The Rattlesnake Calathea prefers a humid environment. Misting once or twice daily, placing it near a humidifier, or keeping it in a naturally humid room like a bathroom all work well.
