-Care Recommendations By The Dude-

Best for These Animals: Small or medium sized reptiles and amphibians.

Bio Dude Substrates: TerraFlora, TerraFauna, some TerraFirma

Soil Depth: All soil depths with proper drainage.

Lighting: Low to medium indirect light.  Placement directly beneath a heat or basking lamp may result in burnt leaves.

Humidity & Misting: 40%-100%, with higher humidity levels suggested for optimal growth.

Mature Plant Size & Root System: This beautiful tropical plant can produce purple leaves up to 5 or 6 inches long and wide and the foliage actually moves via the plant's natural circadian rhythm! This plant, with age, will send out shoots, forming a tight clump of leaves.  It has a shallow fibrous root system.

Temperature Tolerance & Placement in the Terrarium: Too high temperatures/low humidity may cause leaves to brown.  Best used as a front (low) groundcover, underplanting, or back (tall) planting if mature.

Edible & Side Effects if Ingested: Non-toxic if consumed, though these are typically used for ornamental, not edible, purposes.

Pot Size & Packaging: A single 4" potted calathea plant is shipped in the pot, wrapped in paper.
