Calathea musaica, which is also commonly referred to as "Network", is a unique tropical indoor plant that sports green foliage with black veins. The leaves have a mosaic pattern, which is how it gets its name!
Calathea plants are mostly collected for their foliage but they also flower!
Caring for your Calathea musaica is pretty simple. Calathea prefer a well draining soil rich in organic matter. Allow your plant to dry out halfway between watering, taking care to not allow it to sit in excess water. Provide your new plant with medium to bright indirect light.
Additional info:

Arrived in wonderful condition. Beautiful plant!
What a unique and cool plant this is. It was shipped within 2 hours of ordering, and I got it the very next day. Customer service was a 10/10. This plant arrived with some soil missing but other than that it was in perfect condition, and it was also growing 3 new leaves. Canopy Plant Co really takes care of their plants. I highly recommend.
