# Anyone have experience with Calathea Jungle Velvet? I just got one…

_Posted by Motoxgirl17 on 2025-07-19_

Anyone have experience with Calathea Jungle Velvet? I just got one less than a week ago, immediately had leaf curling. I watered it, added a pebble tray, put under a grow light and it’s continued to wilt. Lost several leaves. Humidity has been at least 50%. I think I’m going to loose this plant! I ordered another one in case I do.
