Calathea saving 🀞

Hey!
I found this plant and 3 other calathea completely dry a month ago. I'm trying to save those cuties by putting them into water and they look already way better than before 🀞

Would you have some tips to help them recover from this trauma ? πŸ™

Indirect sunlight is best! Take them out of the windowsill and put them a few feet from the window. That should minimize crunchy edges on any new leaves. Good luck!
You can also remove the most damaged leaves. The plant doesn’t need them and its only spending energy on them.

Humidity humidity humidity! You can put a gallon plastic zip bag over the plant and make a humidity dome. That will trap the water near your plant. Just make sure to take it off every once in a while so the leaves can get some air.

Good luck! Calatheas can be difficult plants! πŸ˜†
