I’ve been a calathea owner for several years now, and I’m hoping to expand my collection over the next few months. As luck would have it, learning how to propagate calatheas can bag you new plants for free.
I always thought you could grow these plants from cuttings, but according to houseplant experts, that isn’t an option for calatheas. Instead, you’ll need to divide them, which simply means splitting the plant up into smaller sections and repotting them. Then, it’s a case of figuring out where to place your calathea cuttings while they grow new plants.
