Botanical name: Calathea orbifolia
Common Name: Goeppertia orbifolia, Peacock plant; Zebra plant; Orbifolia Prayer Plant
Family: Marantaceae
Cultivar Intro: Calathea orbifolia is a stunning tropical plant, admired for its oversized, perfectly round leaves that make it a focal point in any indoor setting. Unlike many Calathea varieties with intricate patterns, this species features a bold, minimalist design: large, glossy leaves with alternating dark green and silvery-gray stripes that radiate from the center, creating a striking, symmetrical effect.
Advantages
Consistent Quality
● TC propagation ensures uniform stripe patterns and leaf shape—critical for meeting customer expectations, as wild-grown specimens often have irregular markings.
● Predictable growth rate simplifies inventory planning, with young plants maturing to market-ready size in 12–16 weeks.
High Visual Impact
The oversized, round leaves with bold stripes make Calathea orbifolia a standout in retail displays, attracting customers seeking statement plants for large spaces.
