    Repotting the Calathea Ornata Plant 🪴
    “Light
    Give your Calathea ornata medium to bright indirect light. This plant is a great option for a north-, east-, or west-facing window; the harsh direct light of a south-facing window can be too strong.
    Soil
    Calathea ornata will grow best in a loose, well-draining potting mix that holds onto moisture. A peat-based mix is ideal-you can make your own by combining 2 parts peat moss, 2 parts orchid bark, 2 parts perlite, and 1 part organic compost. Some growers prefer to use a ready-made potting mix designed for African violets for their calatheas.
    Water
    Water your Calathea ornata consistently (only with Spring, Distilled or natural rain water) so that the soil stays moist but not soggy. Overwatering can cause root rot, which can kill the plant. Avoid letting the soil dry out beyond the top inch or so between waterings.
    Temperature and Humidity
    Keep this tropical plant in a place with moderate temperatures and lots of humidity. If your space is particularly dry, group your plant in with other plants in your collection to help create a more humid microclimate, or run a humidifier nearby to add moisture to the air.”

    “So we can let it breathe!” lol I love that. I noticed my smaller plants I’ve been getting over the past few months have that netting or cage like cup around the roots 🤦🏾‍♀️. My Pinstripe is struggling so I’m thinking about a re-pot to see with going in with the roots. Love your personality. I can tell plants make you happy and I get that 👍🏾 🪴

      Thanks for sharing.
      Hmmm 🤔 I’d have to know the type of environment you had it in, and watering schedule etc.
      Also sometimes you have to kill a few plants before you get them to grow 😂 I know I have!
