Ready to add a bit of star quality to your indoor jungle? Meet Calathea ‘White Star,’ the celebrity plant that doesn’t require paparazzi to look fabulous! With its dreamy white and pink pinstripes decorating lush green leaves, this plant is like a botanical work of art. Plus, it’s not just a pretty face: a member of the Prayer Plant family, the Peacock Plant will practically bow to your gardening prowess by folding its leaves during the evening. Native to the tropical Americas, the Calathea ‘White Star’ is here to bring a touch of exotic flair to your home without demanding star treatment.

Care Instructions:

The ‘White Star’ thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light conditions (no spotlight necessary!).
