4508 Calathea x bicajoux Cobra Pink

Large shrub 5-10 ft Groundcover and low-growing 2ft Small shrub 2-5 ft Semi-shade Regular water Ornamental foliage

This flowering calathea doubles its ornamental value, a plant that is usually known for its decorative leaves. Most calatheas usually do not flower, they are known for their decorative leaves. However, after years of intense breeding, this hybrid from Holland has 4 to 6 flowers that bloom for five months, and it re-flowers every spring. Now it is a plant with a double ornamental value; when it is done flowering, you can still enjoy the beautiful leaves. Great as indoor plant, and for shade garden!
