CARE of Prayer plants (Calahea Whitestar):

Place the Calathea in a spot with partial shade without direct sunlight. Too much sunlight is harmful to the plant and will lead to brown edges on the leaves. It is best to give the Calathea small amounts of water regularly. In the summer period it is wise to water the plant twice a week. Reduce watering in winter. It is important that the Calathea is placed in slightly moist soil, without a layer of water forming at the bottom of the pot.

As mentioned, the Calathea can be kept well in the house. This plant will provide the house with color in places where other plants do not like to be.
In addition to the living room, of course, it fits perfectly in dark locations in the house, such as in the hall.
