Plant Biography

The Calathea Medallion is native to Brazil. They are mostly found in tropical rain forest growing under the canopies of trees. Calatheas in general need lots of shade and well draining soil. Brazilian natives use their leaves to craft containers usually to hold their rice crop. They are a slow growing plant but in their natural habitat they can grow up to 3 feet tall.
