Calathea Insignis "Rattlesnake" 130mm
Calathea insignis, also known as the Rattlesnake Plant, is an eye-catching indoor plant admired for its long, patterned leaves with wavy edges and purple undersides.
The Rattlesnake Plant produces tall, lance-shaped leaves decorated with alternating deep green spots on a lighter green background, resembling the markings of a rattlesnake. The leaves have gently rippled edges and a striking purple underside, creating contrast and movement as they shift position with the day–night cycle. Its upright, fountain-like form makes it a distinctive feature in indoor plant collections.
130mm Pot
Calathea insignis prefers bright, indirect light and evenly moist soil, allowing the top layer to dry slightly between waterings. It enjoys warmth and moderate humidity, though misting is not essential in most indoor environments. Protect it from direct sun, which can fade its decorative markings, and trim any browning leaves to keep the plant tidy. With consistent care, it rewards with vibrant, patterned foliage year-round.
