Calathea Warscewiczii

Velvet Calathea

Also known as the prayer plant in a broader classification, it is a species of plant that features a two-tone pattern of its opposite parts of each leaf, giving it a somewhat odd, yet very decorative appearance.


It should be remembered that here we do not mention anything about its cultivation or maintenance, but only its aesthetic value, and thus help people who are looking for pictures of plants as models for artistic or decorative ideas.


The definitions of these photos are considerably reduced in number of bits to facilitate their sharing on the Internet. If you need the original photo, for example to print it, you can request it here by e-mail.


These images serve many purposes, and one of them could be to have a quick reference for choosing a species for your garden project. The average height of this plant is 25cm from the ground to the tip of its leaves (I just measured them with a tape measure).


Here I'm including a 90-second film, enough to choose an image from the thousands that the movie can offer. Your only task is to find the perfect angle and positioning of the leaves, which by adding the feature of getting rid of unwanted objects with a clean gray background, you can definitely find the right image for your artwork.
