Calatheas are from the family Marantaceae and are naturally found in low lit jungles under shaded trees. These vibrant plants usually have wide and colorful green leaves in order to help them absorb as much light as they can possibly get. Their leaves also fold up at night to conserve energy and spread back out during the day. Since they are naturally found in shaded conditions, these little guys are perfect for low-lit rooms and offices that need a touch of brightness!
