Calathea Concinna

The plant's leaves are unique in that they open during daytime and close at night. You may also hear it referred to as Zebra Plant or as Prayer Plants.
Basic Care
Calathea Concinna likes partial shade and does well in a setting with moderate to bright indirect lighting. It does tolerate low lighting but not direct sunlight.
Keep your Calathea Concinna in a consistently warm setting, ranging from 65°-85° degrees Farhenheit. Be careful not to allow temperatures to drop below 60° degrees Farhenheit.
Generally speaking, Freddie likes the soil moist. A weekly or bi-weekly watering schedule is good. Remember that brighter light exposure will cause a need for more watering. Check the plants’ soil often. When the top two inches of soil feel dry to the touch, water thoroughly.
