Description
The Calathea Rufibarba is a striking green houseplant with long, thin leaves that are known for their velvety texture. This special texture has earned the plant the nickname 'velvet Calathea'.
This houseplant originates from South America, where it grows in the warm and humid environment of the rainforest. The Calathea Rufibarba is not only loved for its unique appearance, but also because it is known for its air purifying properties. It helps to keep the air in the house clean by absorbing harmful substances and converting them into oxygen.
'Rufibarba' means 'hairy feathers', which refers to the soft, hair-like structure on the underside of the leaves. This structure is not only beautiful, but also helps the plant to retain moisture better.
The care of this Calathea is relatively easy, which makes it an excellent choice for both beginners and more experienced plant lovers. It prefers a spot in partial shade and likes regular but moderate watering.
