Iā€™m just about done with this Calathea Roseopicta. I bought her last September from a big box store thinking she would be easy to care for. I went on a vacation in March and my husband forgot to water her so she got very dry. She lost most of her leaves. I tried nursing her back to health, but she still wasnā€™t thriving so last month I repotted her. Now she has only five leaves. I checked the care info and sheā€™s in a great location, sheā€™s on a good watering schedule, and I fertilize her as instructed. I donā€™t get it. Is this a hard plant to care for?

    Hi! I had difficulties as well until I decided to repot in a self watering pot. Since then I have had zero issues. Give this a try if you can.

    Iā€™m no expert but the leaves that are there still look beautiful.

    if you aren't already, water her with distilled water. calathea's are very, very fussy.

      Iā€™m using RO water. Is that ok?
