More About Calathea Stromanthe Triostar
This dramatic multi-colored herbaceous perennial is part of the Marantaceae family ( Prayer plant) mimicking the nyctinasty or the diurnal response of raising and lowering their leaves due to light exposure. This one will give you something to talk about! Interestingly, one theory of botanists is they adapt in this movement to capture water on their leaves during the day and retain the moisture during the evening hours instead of evaporating.
