  • In this video, I share my Calathea/Goeppertia collection and my Calathea care guide. It's been a journey and a half caring for these prayer plants BUT I've learned a ton of lessons along the way that I'll share with you. Hope you have a laugh and takeaway a thing or two from my mistakes! Stay tuned to the end for the blooper reel.

    After watching your video, I bought a Calathea Orbifolia to start planting Calathea. It does look gorgeous on their leaves pattern. Thank you for sharing the video. Subscribed.

      Don't give up! I feel like they do acclimatise to your environment overtime and become less fussy!

    Thanks for your tips! I have found that my calatheas love spring water. I buy 5L bottles from Coles for a couple dollars and it lasts ages. If I run out, then I use aquarium water which has been treated with dechlorinator.

    Such a beautiful collection 🥰 how do you deal with spider mites? I’m so nervous my Alocasias are going to get mites 😭😭

    • @MyFellowFoliage
      @MyFellowFoliage  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      gracie davoren Thanks Gracie! I haven't had the best of luck with pests so I've had to learn through trial and error.
      I find the best thing for spider mites is prevention meaning get on top of wiping your plants down BUT if you do happen to get it anyway, then treat with diluted neem oil or eco oil (I apply it with a wash cloth or old makeup brush) and keep your fingers crossed they go away!
      It's worked for me so far but they tend to return so just gotta keep on top of the preventative care!

    It seems that you live in Australia which I generally think is fairly dry. However you only spray your calatheas and use pebble trays. Your video gives me hope that I wont kill by bbs if I just do those 2 things! Haha!

    • @MyFellowFoliage
      @MyFellowFoliage  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They are actually not too bad depending on which type of calathea you got. I find they also acclimatise to your environment. They may throw a fit initially but overtime they will adjust! All the best with yours!
