It's as beautiful as it is bold! Green foliage with deep-burgundy undersides is complemented with bright-pink markings that are sure to liven up any space. The Dottie Calathea is a low-maintenance plant and does extremely well when planted in containers. It has a clumping growth habit that adds interest to the already unique appearance! During the summer and fall, it produces white blooms. Dottie is a non-toxic, pet friendly choice!

Best Locations For Growing Dottie Calathea

The Dottie Calathea thrives on indirect sunlight, as direct sunlight can burn its foliage. It is versatile in any space. A room that maintains a temperature of 65-75 degrees F is optimal for this plant. A family room or cubicle are good options as this plant requires humidity. Keep Dottie out of rooms that experience drafts or sudden temperature changes.

Dottie Calathea Sunlight Requirements

Place Dottie in an area with indirect sunlight. Near a window facing north, east, or west is optimal.

Dottie Calathea Plant Care

A peat moss soil mix is best to ensure proper drainage. Deadheading should take place as needed. Place Dottie in a pot that is 2-4 inches larger than its current container. Repot this plant every 2-4 years to keep it growing strong.

Watering Dottie Calathea

Keep the soil damp. The plant should not sit in soil that is overly wet. Mist the leaves regularly to maintain humidity.

Feeding Dottie Calathea

Fertilize Dottie monthly during spring and summer with a general-purpose houseplant fertilizer.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Guarantee and Warranty

Plant Shipping

Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.

Winter to Early Spring

We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.

Summer

If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.

Fall into Winter

We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Winter

Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
