I love this plant. And it’s one I don’t have yet but been wanting. They look intimidating. Lol.

Thank you- definitely one of my faves! You should do it, they aren’t as hard as you think! As long as you water them with distilled/ filtered water and keep their humidity about 60% or more they do great! This one is pretty resilient to lower humidity as well- some calatheas have extra thin leaves (my Freddie does) that are very susceptible to low humidity. Rose’s leaves are a little thicker so she’s been okay for the most part with the 58% humidity the house has in the summer.
