Calathea ‘Beauty Star’ (Goeppertia ornata ‘Beauty Star’) is a tropical foliage plant known for its long, elegant, dark green leaves adorned with delicate pink, silver, white, and lime-green stripes, complemented by deep purple undersides. It thrives in bright, indirect light, warm temperatures, high humidity, and consistently moist, well-draining soil. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves and fade their vibrant patterns. This attractive plant is pet-friendly and non-toxic to cats and dogs, making it a great choice for pet-owning households. It is best suited for outdoor growing in USDA hardiness zones 10–12, as it is sensitive to frost and is typically grown as a houseplant in cooler climates.
