The dark, velvety leaves of Calathea crocata reveal tantalising glimpses of their claret undersides as they gently unfurl. This tropical stunner makes a handsome house plant even before its bright saffron-yellow flowers appear. The blooms are borne above the leaves on short, upright stems, making a striking contrast.
Like all Calatheas, this leafy perennial enjoys bright, filtered light, well away from the scorch of direct sun. This spectacular house plant makes a superb focal point, whether grown alone, or as part of an exotic group planting in the conservatory. Height and spread: 50cm (20").
1 x 14cm potted calathea plant (KB4550)
