The Ultimate Guide To Calatheas

Common Problems

As much as we love Calatheas, spider mites love them even more. If you notice mottling through the leaves of your Calathea and white dusty build up on the underside, you most likely have an infestation. You can learn how to treat your plants for spider mite on our Pest Control page. 

​

Temperature changes, especially in the winter months, can cause plants to wilt without much explanation. It is best to keep Calatheas away from cold draughts and radiators, as well as rooms that experience drastic changes in temperature. Calatheas are happy at a range of 18-27°C. ​
