The Calathea Ornata Prayer Plant pink pinstripe is a stunning herbaceous perennial. Its dark green leaves are striped with pink, earning it the nickname of ‘Pinstripe Plant’. The underside of each leaf is purple, which is a striking contrast to the patterned top. It can be tricky to look after as it needs the perfect balance of indirect lighting and humidity so best for those with a green thumb.
Originating from the tropical rain forests of South America, this plant is perfect for growing in a pot in your living space. It can spread outwards to between 6 inches and 2 feet wide and can grow to 6 inches and 3 feet in height.
Your Calathea Ornata is happiest when planted in moist soil that is well-draining and has an acidic pH. It prefers bright, indirect sunlight and needs a humid environment so use our Plant Mister to keep its surroundings moist.
This evergreen beauty adds oxygen to the air, which enhances your wellbeing. With such aesthetic appeal, the Calathea Ornata is the perfect plant to choose as live décor for your home. It will complement any space you place it in and you can enjoy many satisfying moments as you watch it grow.
Available in the following packaging based on your preference:
- Nursery Pot - Standard plastic 4-inch or 6-inch planter pot that can be placed inside a larger pot or left as is until it outgrows it.
- Selene Planter - Porcelain 6-inch pot ceramic marble planter with drainage hole and matching rose gold ceramic tray. The planter measures: 7.5" x 6.5" x 6.5" and weighs approximately 3.7 lbs. We recommend placing your plant in the nursery pot inside it to make it easy to water and transplant.

Love it! Staying healthy & growing!
This such a beautiful little plant and I love the striping on the leaves! Very healthy (such as all the other plants I have from verdant lyfe!) and is already putting out a new leaf for me 🥰🌱
I was sent that plant, and I figured it might turn out for me to wind up losing leaves and it has done just the opposite . It is stunning and it’s sitting in a sink that’s not hooked up so I put my beautiful Prayer Plant in there so that I wouldn’t turn on the water on. The Pink Pinstripe is awesome it seems to be putting on leaf’s daily and it’s filling up my little sink I can’t believe how big and glossy, that plant has become and it’s keeping its color. I love ❤️ the Calathea plants all of them. This Prayer Plant has a special meeting for me. Thank you
My plant was packed beautifully and so well protected. Came with a heat pack in a cooler. This plant was huge and in perfect condition. I marvel at it's greatness lol. Thank you so much.
out of the 4 plants I ordered 2 of them were dead upon arrival. The Calathea however was in excellent condition.
