Symbolism, colors & shapes
Take a look at the leaves of Calathea. They are wavy, ribbed and have round, pointed or oval shapes. There is also more good news to report: As soon as the sun rises in the morning, they spread out the magnificent leaves to catch the sunlight and close again in the evening.
Origin
Calathea were first discovered in the jungles of the Amazon region in South America. To be precise, in the shady areas under the dense vegetation. So a little shade doesn't bother Mike at all. Place it quietly in a shady corner in the bathroom, hallway or bedroom. However, you shouldn't be frightened by the nocturnal plant movements.
