Calathea ‘Mysty’ is a true gem among prayer plants—smaller in stature but big on style. This compact cultivar showcases soft, dusty green leaves with delicate silvery veining and deep purple undersides that curl up at night in true Calathea fashion. Unlike its fussier cousins, Mysty is a bit more forgiving when it comes to care, making it ideal for smaller spaces and newer plant parents.

Please Note: We try to photograph a good representation of the style, size and overall look of the plant category. Should there be specific variants (such as our Imperfect Plants) they will be marked as such. Each plant is unique in it's own way, so we cannot guarantee the exact number of leaf or stem counts.

  • Lighting

    Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can cause leaf burn and fading of colors.

  • Watering

    Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Use filtered, distilled, or rainwater to avoid chlorine and fluoride, which can cause leaf browning.

  • Toxicity

    Non-toxic to pets and humans, making it a great choice for homes with cats and dogs.

  • Fertilization

    Feed with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer every 4 weeks in spring and summer. Avoid over-fertilizing, as it can lead to salt buildup. No need to fertilize in fall and winter.
