Time for a watering for Geraldine! No joke, this easy little plant hasn’t been watered for over two months. She’s only just shown signs of being thirsty, and as far as I know LOVES her soil. She keeps putting out new leaves so she seems to be chilling. Literally the easiest plant I own. πŸ’šπŸ’šπŸ’š #CalatheaCrew #CalatheaMusaica #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #NewGrowth #PlantTherapy

What soil do you have it in that you haven't had to water for over two months? 😳

My small calatheas have never gone over 2 weeks without water πŸ˜…
@Linx Calathea soil. It was actually too moisture retentive for one of my other calatheas, but she loves it. When I watered her yesterday my whole family laughed because she stuck her leaves up happily afterwards.
@ThisCalatheaCan that sounds wild that it isn't drowning 😳

Here I am.. watering my calatheas at least once a week πŸ˜…
@Linx I think it’s funny too, but she seems to like it, and I would never question a plant on what they want.
