Goeppertia insignis (formerly calathea insignis)
Also known as: rattlesnake plant
It’s hard to believe that the painted shapes on the rattlesnake’s leaves are in fact a creation of nature and not a mere drawing. As with other prayer plants, their striking leaves fold up at night, revealing its purple tinted underside. This plant can be tricky for new plant owners due to special water needs and preference for higher humidity.
Watering: keep soil moist but not soggy, allow the top inch to dry. Prefers distilled or rainwater, and tap water can cause crispy edges.
Light: Bright room with indirect sunlight.
