Pflegehinweise
Calathea crotalifera requires bright, indirect light and high humidity to thrive. It prefers warm temperatures and should be kept away from cold drafts. Water the plant regularly to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Mist the leaves frequently to maintain high humidity levels.Boden
This plant prefers well-draining loamy soil that retains moisture without becoming waterlogged. A mix of peat, perlite, and potting soil works well. Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent water from accumulating at the bottom.Dünger
Feed Calathea crotalifera with a balanced liquid fertilizer (10-10-10) every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Reduce feeding during the winter months when the plant's growth slows down.Umtopfen
Repot the plant every 1-2 years or when it becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is one size larger than the current one and use fresh potting mix. Gently remove the plant from its old pot, loosen the roots, and place it in the new pot, filling in with soil around the roots.Vermehrung
Propagate Calathea crotalifera by division during the spring or early summer. Carefully separate the plant into smaller sections, ensuring each section has roots and shoots. Plant the divisions in individual pots with fresh potting mix and water thoroughly.Beschneidung
Prune the plant to remove dead or yellowing leaves and to maintain its shape. Use clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears to cut the leaves at the base. Regular pruning encourages healthy growth and prevents the plant from becoming leggy.Toxizität
