Summary

The Calathea 'Surprise Star' is a bold and beautiful variety known for its striking foliage. Its deep purple leaves are adorned with delicate pinkish hues around the centre. The rich purple undersides add even more drama, making it a standout addition to any indoor space.

Like all Prayer Plants, the 'Surprise Star' performs its signature leaf movement, gently folding its leaves upward at night. It thrives in bright, indirect light and prefers consistently moist (but well-drained) soil. Keeping humidity levels high will encourage vibrant growth and maintain its stunning colours.

With its rich tones and eye-catching patterns, the 'Surprise Star' brings a touch of elegance and personality to your indoor jungle — perfect for plant lovers who appreciate bold beauty.
