Calathea 'Dottie' (Goeppertia Roseopicta) is a tropical indoor houseplant known for its dark foliage. This prayer plant features glossy, dark olive to deep burgundy leaves with a bright neon-pink ring pattern and a pink central vein. Belonging to the Marantaceae family, it exhibits daily nyctinasty movement, naturally folding its leaves upward at night like hands in prayer.
