  •   Calathea 'White Fusion', also called White Fusion Calathea, is a rare variegated houseplant from the Marantaceae family, native to the humid forest floors of tropical America. This plant is sought by collectors for its extraordinary marbled foliage and air purifying properties, making it a standout addition to any indoor plant collection.

      The leaves are recognizable, painted with a watercolor pattern of white, green, and lilac across broad oval forms that grow in an upright, clumping habit. Each leaf features a violet-purple underside, making every angle of the plant visually distinct. The variegation is unique on every leaf, with no two leaves marked exactly the same.

      Blooms appear infrequently indoors and remain small when they do emerge, so the plant is valued almost entirely for its foliage rather than its flowers. The leaves visibly wilt when thirsty. It filters formaldehyde and other toxins from indoor air.

      Position it near kitchen moisture or in a bathroom where humidity naturally stays higher, and it adapts well to office spaces under LED lighting provided humidity remains consistent. The plant is non-toxic and safe around cats and dogs. Keep it away from air conditioning and heating vents, as temperature swings and dry air stress the foliage. It can be divided at the root clump during spring repotting, with each division requiring healthy roots and at least one or two stems to establish successfully.

  •   Calathea 'White Fusion' grows well in medium to bright indirect light and scorches easily in direct south-facing sun.

      Water it every 7 to 10 days, keeping the soil consistently moist but never waterlogged.

      Calathea 'White Fusion' does best in a well-draining mix of peat or coco coir, perlite, and a small amount of compost.

      It prefers temperatures between 65 and 85°F and cannot tolerate frost or cold drafts from vents or windows.

      Calathea 'White Fusion' is a moderate grower that benefits from a balanced liquid fertilizer applied monthly during the growing season.

      It is hardy in USDA Zones 11 and 12, where temperatures stay above 40°F year-round. It grows outdoors in Hawaii, southern Florida, and the southernmost tip of Texas along the Rio Grande Valley. In most other states, including California, Arizona, Louisiana, Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, Nevada, and Oregon, it serves as an indoor or patio plant moved outside during warm months and brought back indoors before temperatures drop.
  • Q: Is Calathea 'White Fusion' safe for cats and dogs?
    A: It is non-toxic and safe for all household pets.

    Q: What happens if I place it in direct sun?
    A: Calathea 'White Fusion' develops scorched and browned leaves in direct south-facing windows. Medium to bright indirect light prevents leaf damage.

    Q: How do I know when Calathea 'White Fusion' needs water?
    A: The leaves curl and wilt noticeably. Once you see wilting, water thoroughly and the plant will recover within a few hours.

    Q: Can it grow in a terrarium?
    A: Yes. Enclosed terrariums maintain the high humidity that Calathea 'White Fusion' needs, as long as the container is large enough for its upright clumping growth.

    Q: How do I propagate White Fusion Calathea?
    A: Divide the root clumps during spring repotting, ensuring each division has healthy roots and at least one or two stems attached.

    Q: Where can this plant grow outdoors in the United States?
    A: White Fusion Calathea survives year-round outdoors only in USDA Zones 11 and 12, which include Hawaii, southern Florida, and extreme south Texas. Everywhere else, move it indoors before fall temperatures drop.

    🌿 For Houseplants
    When your package arrives, you may notice a bit of loose soil in the box. This is completely normal during shipping.
    Please remove your plants from their packaging as soon as possible and review the care instructions included with your order. Water based on your plant’s needs, making sure not to overwater.
    Houseplants may need a short adjustment period after arrival. Give your plant time to acclimate to its new space before placing it with other plants. You can gently clean the leaves if needed, and wait to fertilize until it has settled in. Always check soil moisture instead of watering on a fixed schedule.
    *** We pack carefully to protect each plant during transit, so larger orders may arrive in multiple packages.
