Calathea Stella (6")

Calathea Stella | 6” Pot
A Shining Star of Southern Charm and Grace

At Wrights Market, nestled in our cozy 1938 cottage where family stories and laughter fill the air, the Calathea Stella is a plant that brings beauty, peace, and a touch of magic into any home. Native to the tropical rainforests of Brazil, this graceful plant is celebrated for its striking leaves—deep green with soft, silvery stripes that look like rays of moonlight dancing through a Southern evening.

Calatheas, often called “prayer plants,” gently fold their leaves upward at night, reminding us to pause, reflect, and cherish life’s quiet moments—values we hold dear here at Wrights Market, where love and kindness bloom daily.

While Calathea Stella may occasionally produce delicate flowers, it’s the stunning foliage that steals the show—adding lush texture and calming beauty to your favorite spaces.

Care Tips:

• Light: Bright, indirect light is best; keep away from direct sun to protect the leaves

• Water: Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy; loves a little humidity like a Southern morning mist

• Humidity: Prefers higher humidity—regular misting or a humidifier helps her thrive

• Soil: Well-draining, peat-based potting mix

• Toxicity: Safe for pets and children, a gentle addition to any family home

Perfect Plant Pairings:

• Ferns — to add soft, feathery layers

• Philodendrons — for a rich, leafy mix

• Peace Lily — for serene white blooms that balance lush greens

Invite the gentle elegance of Calathea Stella into your home and let her remind you of the quiet beauty found in family, community, and Southern living. From our Wrights Market family to yours, may she bring calm, comfort, and a little sparkle to your day.
