{"product_id":"calathea-beauty-star-variegated-prayer-plants","title":"Calathea ‘Beauty Star’ – Variegated Prayer Plants","description":"\u003cp\u003eCalathea ‘Beauty Star’ is a striking prayer plant with long, lance‑shaped leaves painted in layers of light and dark green, lime, and soft cream striping over a rich purple underside. As light shifts throughout the day, the leaves move and gently fold, giving the plant a living, animated presence on your shelf or plant stand.\u003cbr\u003eThis variety brings big visual impact without taking up a huge footprint, making it perfect for tabletops, plant cabinets, and styled corners that need color and pattern. With the right combo of humidity, filtered light, and consistent moisture, ‘Beauty Star’ rewards you with fresh flushes of leaves that look hand‑brushed.\u003cbr\u003e---\u003cbr\u003ePlant care\u003cbr\u003e• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Keep it out of direct sun, which can fade the pattern and crisp the edges; it will tolerate medium light but may grow more slowly.\u003cbr\u003e• Water: Keep the soil lightly and evenly moist, not soggy. Let the top bit of soil start to dry before watering again. Calatheas are sensitive to build‑up and hard water, so filtered, distilled, or rainwater is ideal if your tap water is mineral‑heavy.\u003cbr\u003e• Soil: Use a rich, well‑draining mix that holds some moisture but doesn’t stay heavy—an indoor tropical\/aroid mix with added perlite or bark works well.\u003cbr\u003e• Humidity: Loves higher humidity. It will be happiest in a plant cabinet, near a humidifier, or grouped with other plants. Low humidity can cause brown tips or edges.\u003cbr\u003e• Temperature: Prefers warm, stable indoor temperatures. Keep away from drafts, heaters, and AC vents, and avoid temperatures below about 60°F.\u003cbr\u003e• Growth habit: Compact, clumping habit with new leaves emerging rolled and unfurling from the center. Expect occasional older leaves to age out naturally as new growth appears.\u003cbr\u003e• Pet safety: Generally treated as non‑toxic, but it’s still best to discourage pets from chewing on leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"City plants","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50261505671525,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0852\/4775\/4597\/files\/83E28DBF-673D-48D7-AC9F-9ECB1684EC6C.jpg?v=1781402501","url":"https:\/\/accidentalplantshop.store\/products\/calathea-beauty-star-variegated-prayer-plants","provider":"The Accidental Plant Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
