Calathea Rattlesnake

Rattlesnake Plants (Calathea lancifolia) aren’t the easiest houseplants to nurture, but, if you give them them the care they need, you will be rewarded with an impressive display from their foliage.

This tropical calathea species is native to the rainforests of Brazil and gets its common name from the distinctive decorative markings that are displayed on its leaves.
