Got this rattlesnake plant about a month and a half ago. I was doing the same regiment for it as my other Calathea (fishbone prayer plant) — water them 1-2x per week (as needed) with regular tap water; mist them; give them bright, indirect light; and fertilize them every 3-4 weeks. My other calathea is thriving! It's literally popping out new leaves and growth left and right. This one, not so much. 😭 I recently switched to watering it with distilled water, but I'm wondering if that's enough to reverse its slow death. Should I wash off the roots with the distilled water and repot it too? Something else? Thanks in advance! 🪴 --- Edited to add: This whole time, I thought my other plant was a Calathea. I was today years old when I found out Calathea Burle Marx plants/fishbone prayer plants aren't actually Calatheas. They're Ctenanthes. Please tell me I'm not the only one who didn't know this. 😅 Either way, I still need help with my rattlesnake plant. haha
