It is really beautiful. It has dark green almost black oval leaves with pink stripes around the edges. I wasnt leaving that store without it. But mostly I have resisting the urge to visit nursuries and plant centers.  K- Mart you say... I didnt know that plant flowered! Wonder what I will do with time on my hands tommorow while family is at the Red Wings' game In Detroit  Was it a baby or established...What size pot *LOL  ?Enjoy your new arrival  Kale

Thanx for the tip I just added it to my list for spring.

I bought two roses, one yellow & one white at Lowes today for $2 a piece. They both had a few yellow leaves with black spot from all the rain we have had in Fl this summer/fall. But otherwise they both look very healthy and i'm sure will bounce back by spring. The white rose i put in the front yard between my lavendar and pink roses. The yellow i put on the side of my house later i'm going to add goldenrod & black eyed susans for a yellow theme. how does that sound?

Kale, here is a close match at smithandhawken.com-->foliage plant page--> scroll down to Calathea Roseopicta. Mine is simialar except darker with pink stripe where theirs has a white or light green stripe. Their price is $59 and mine was $8 so maybe mine is small. I wish I had a digital camera.....sigh. |
