Calatheas (now reclassified as Goeppertias) are one of my favourite houseplants. They can be fussy (and for me, that makes them even more rewarding), but knowing where to place a calathea will give your plant the best chance of thriving.
Striking patterned leaves make calatheas a statement in the home, and they’re one of the most popular air-purifying indoor plants, too. My ‘peacock plant’ (Calathea makoyana) is a stalwart in my bedroom, but it wouldn’t have lasted half as long had I not kept it in the right place.
