Calatheas Rufibarba Plant

Calatheas Rufibarba Plant

Its narrow, wavy leaves and softly fuzzed stems give it a texture unlike any other Calathea on this list.

Calathea Rufibarba, sometimes called the furry feather Calathea, has slim, ribbon-like leaves with a velvety underside and rust-toned, fuzzy stems. It grows into a fuller, feathery clump than the broader-leafed Calathea varieties.

Where it settles in best

It looks best where its texture can be appreciated up close, a living room shelf, bedroom nightstand, or balcony corner, and also suits an office entrance or exit area that gets filtered daylight rather than direct sun.

A few extra details

It is supplied in a grow pot, so you can repot it into a decorative planter at home. Like the rest of the Calathea family, it helps purify indoor air and is comfortable indoors year-round without needing outdoor exposure.

Please note: This is a living plant. Natural differences in leaf size, colour and overall shape may occur, so the plant you receive may vary slightly from the photographs.
