The Rattlesnake Calathea, or Calathea lancifolia, is a striking houseplant known for its elongated, lance-shaped leaves that showcase a unique pattern. The leaves feature a deep green background with wavy edges and distinctive dark green spots and stripes, giving them a mesmerizing, serpentine appearance reminiscent of a rattlesnake's skin.
This plant thrives in bright, indirect light and enjoys high humidity, making it ideal for indoor environments like bathrooms or kitchens. It prefers well-draining, consistently moist soil but should not be overwatered. Like other Calatheas, the Rattlesnake Calathea exhibits fascinating leaf movement, folding its leaves up at night and opening them during the day. Its vibrant foliage and dynamic behavior make it a popular choice for plant enthusiasts looking to add an exotic touch to their space.
