Growing Guide

Before sowing, confirm that the package contains viable Calathea or Goeppertia seeds from an identifiable source. Medallion plants are commonly propagated by division, and seeds may not be readily available for every named cultivar. Ask the supplier for the correct sowing method.

Step 2: Prepare the Growing Medium
Select a clean propagation tray or small pot with drainage holes. Use a fine, airy medium that retains moisture without becoming saturated. Clean equipment and a suitable growing medium help support healthy seedling establishment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find helpful information about Calathea Medallion seed availability, leaf care, and suitable indoor growing conditions.
Can Calathea Medallion be grown from seeds?
Calathea Medallion is commonly propagated by dividing established plants. Seed propagation may be possible when genuine, viable seeds of the correct species are available, but seed availability and germination information for a named cultivar can be limited. Confirm the botanical identity and sowing instructions with the supplier before purchasing seeds.
Why are the leaves of my Calathea Medallion turning brown at the edges?
Brown leaf edges can develop because of low humidity, inconsistent watering, excessive fertilizer salts, or unsuitable water quality. Keep the growing medium evenly moist without leaving the roots waterlogged, provide suitable humidity, and use water appropriate for your plant's needs. Also protect the leaves from harsh direct sunlight and avoid placing the plant near hot or cold drafts.
Does Calathea Medallion need direct sunlight indoors?
No. Calathea Medallion generally performs best in bright, indirect light. Prolonged harsh direct sunlight can fade its decorative leaf patterns or scorch the foliage. Place it near a bright window where the light is filtered, and adjust its position if the leaves show signs of light or heat stress.
