Calathea Gecko is a member of the Marantaceae family, which consists of a large variety of plants that typically have very colorful foliage and posses the ability to bend, or fold, their leaves in the evening.  Commonly called a "Prayer Plant" these tropical plants make good indoor statement pieces.

Calathea Gecko care:

This plant prefers a well draining soil that is rich in organic matter, but will retain a little bit of moisture.  Water your plant when the soil is about halfway dry, taking care to not let it sit in excess water or remain dry for long periods.  Provide your new Calathea Gecko with plenty of bright indirect light for optimal growth.

Additional info:

Calathea, which are commonly referred to as a "Prayer Plant", is a genus of flowering plants in the family Marantaceae. Most Calathea species will fold their leaves up at night, similar to praying hands.

Calathea are collected and prized for their uniquely patterned foliage. You'll find all types of colorful foliage within this genus, from bright pink neon to deep red to yellow and white -- Calathea has it all!

Calathea do flower, but they tend to not be very showy or colorful.

You'll find that your Calathea will be happiest with above average humidity and medium to bright indirect light.

Recently, up to 200 former Calathea species were reclassified into the genus Goeppertia.
