Calathea Warszewiczii (Calathea Jungle Velvet)

Calatheas are stunning tropical plants with brilliantly patterned leaves. Calathea warscewiczii is one of the most remarkable varieties, sporting exotic velvety foliage with two-toned green tops and burgundy-colored undersides.

 

Calathea rarely produces flower unless in the wild. Even then, it only produces once a year!!!
