Time to repot? Have you pulled her pants down in a while? Check those legs..i mean roots. She looks like she may be ready for a bigger pot

She's beautiful by the way!

You are so kind. Thank you for your advice on this post and the one pertaining to my white butterfly.  
I have actually never up potted her. 🫣 I’m just such a scaredy cat! I’ve had her since early spring but she has grown considerably, so I’ll try to get her moved up this weekend! Thanks again! 🤍

Mine loses old leaves here and there, the rest of the leaves look fine. Check for spider mites and don’t overwater or leave it sitting in water. Use filtered or distilled water. My calathea do best when grouped together with other pots too

Thank you for the advice! I’ll try relocating her. 💕

I've just had the exact same issue with my one. Thankfully it just needed a bigger pot and nothing more serious!
