Care & tips for the Calathea Compactstar - 70cm
The Calathea Compactstar isn't a difficult plant to care for. It does help to know the right care, so you can enjoy your plant for a long time to come.
How much water does the Calathea Compactstar - 70cm need?
You can keep the soil of the Calathea Compactstar slightly moist at all times. Just be careful not to give the plant too much water. That can lead to root rot, which is often impossible to reverse. Feel the soil carefully each time. Is it still moist from last time? Then wait a little longer. Has your plant been repotted? Then we recommend using a moisture meter!
How much light does the Calathea Compactstar - 70cm need?
The Calathea Compactstar grows in the tropics, in the shade of tall trees and large plants. That's why the plant prefers a shady spot in your home too, and doesn't cope well with direct sunlight.
Is the Calathea Compactstar toxic? - 70cm
No, like most Calathea species, the Calathea Compactstar is not toxic to children or pets.
