How To Care for Calathea Beauty Star

Sunlight requirements

Thrives in medium to bright, indirect light. While it tolerates lower light than some other tropicals, keeping it in a brighter spot (out of direct sun!) helps maintain those electric pink and white pinstripes.

Watering requirements

Keep the soil lightly moist at all times—never let it dry out completely. Like its dramatic siblings, it hates "hard" tap water. If you see brown, crispy tips, switch to filtered or rainwater and boost the humidity around the leaves.

Is this plant pet-friendly?

YES! This plant is completely safe for cats and dogs.

Fun Fact

This plant looks like a work of art. The delicate pink and white stripes are so precise they look like they were painted on by hand with a fine brush. It’s also a "Prayer Plant," so it will fold up its leaves at night to sleep.
