What’s wrong with my calethea??


I have had this plant for a year now and have been fighting with it the whole time. If you see the leaf at the bottom it is starting to curl and will eventually die. I certainly dont overwater this plant. Sometimes I may wait a little too long to water it but right now that’s not the case. I try not to have it near any drafts. ( we don’t use our heater in the picture). the people who are calathea experts please help, this plant was gifted by a special person πŸ™
3ft to light, indirect
6” pot with drainage
Last watered 2 months ago
I find that with mine, watering is a fine line. Also, I’ve moved her several times and find that she likes muted light better than bright indirect. Let her dry out but not completely between waterings and try moving her to a location where it’s a little less bright to see if she prefers that. Hope that helps.
I’ve had the best luck with keeping mine with higher humidity. I try to keep it around 60% humidity about 10 hours a day.
