Light:
Calathea ‘Network’ thrives in bright, indirect light, which helps maintain the contrast in its stunning leaf patterns. It can tolerate low light but may lose some of its vibrancy. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.
Watering:
Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Use filtered or distilled water to prevent mineral build-up that could harm the plant. In the winter months, reduce watering slightly to accommodate the plant's slower growth.
Fertilizing:
Fertilize every 4–6 weeks during the spring and summer growing season with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer. Avoid fertilizing in fall and winter when growth slows. Over-fertilizing can lead to leaf tip burn.
