The Calathea Rufibarba is a striking green houseplant with long, thin leaves known for their velvety texture. This special texture has earned the plant the nickname 'velvet Calathea'.
This houseplant is native to South America, where it grows in the warm and humid environment of the rainforest. The Calathea Rufibarba is not only popular for its unique appearance, but also because it is known for its air purifying properties. It helps keep the air in your home 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.
Caring for this Calathea is relatively simple, making it an excellent choice for both beginners and more experienced plant enthusiasts. It prefers a spot in partial shade and likes regular but moderate watering.
