How to Care for Your Calathea Makoyana 

☀️ Light

• Prefers bright, indirect light.
• Can tolerate medium light but growth may be slower.
• Avoid direct sunlight, as it can burn the leaves and fade the patterns.

💧 Water

• Keep the soil slightly moist but not waterlogged.
• Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels slightly dry.
• Use filtered or distilled water if possible, as Calatheas are sensitive to salts and minerals.

🌡️ Temperature

• Ideal temperature: 18–30°C.
• Keep away from direct AC airflow, cold drafts, and sudden temperature changes.

💦 Humidity

• Prefers high humidity.
• In Dubai indoor conditions:
  • Mist leaves regularly
  • Use a humidifier if available
  • Keep away from dry AC air

🌱 Fertilizer

• Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer once a month during spring and summer.
• Avoid excessive fertilizer, as it may cause leaf tip browning.
