I think my calathea is about to flower for the first time ever!! Anyone have any experience or advice to offer? I have no clue what to expect! So excited and proud of her 🥰

Nope I sure don’t know… mine is not this mature yet. However I’m here for this journey and the learning curve!

let her flower and then once it starts wilting i would chop it off. it takes a lot of energy for them to put out flowers!
