Calathea rufibarba

Calathea rufibarba is a striking foliage plant native to Brazil, valued for its long, elegant leaves and rich green colour. The foliage has a subtle soft texture with gently waved edges, giving the plant a relaxed yet architectural feel.

Its upright habit and flowing leaf shape make it a great choice for adding height and movement to an interior, working especially well in living spaces with bright, indirect light. Like other calatheas, the leaves respond to light throughout the day, adding a sense of life and rhythm to a room.
• Approx. 70cm tall (measured from floor to top of plant, including pot)
• Supplied in a nursery pot
• Healthy, well-established plant



About the shop

I’m a landscape gardener and designer and source plants directly from trusted nurseries. I select plants for their form, health and overall quality, and only list plants I’d be happy to use in my own home or design projects.

Alongside my landscaping work, I offer a curated selection of plants chosen for people who care about well-designed, considered spaces.



Plant selection & dispatch

You will receive a plant very similar to the one photographed. I carefully select each plant to ensure it matches the size, quality and overall appearance shown, choosing the best examples available.

Plants are securely packed and dispatched promptly to arrive in excellent condition.
