Calathea lutea - Cuban Cigar Plant
Description:Calathea lutea, commonly known as Cuban Cigar Plant or Havana Cigar Plant, is a striking tropical perennial known for its large, paddle-shaped leaves and upright growth habit. Native to tropical regions of South and Central America, this plant adds a bold, architectural element to gardens and landscapes with its oversized, glossy green foliage. Unlike other Calathea species, Calathea lutea grows much taller and is often used to create a lush, tropical backdrop in garden designs or as a statement plant in large containers. Flowers:While primarily grown for its bold foliage, Calathea lutea can produce inconspicuous, cigar-shaped inflorescences that emerge from the base of the plant. These flowers are enclosed in bracts that range from green to brown or reddish hues. Though not the plant’s main ornamental feature, the flowers add interest and texture. Foliage:The large, paddle-shaped leaves of Calathea lutea are a deep, glossy green on the upper surface and have a more muted, pale green underside. The leaves can grow up to 1 meter in length, creating a dramatic, lush appearance. The tall, upright leaves make this plant a favorite for creating tropical privacy screens or as a focal point in landscape designs. Fruit:Calathea lutea rarely produces fruit, and when it does, the fruit is not considered an ornamental feature. Its value lies primarily in its striking foliage. Form and Size:This tall, clumping plant can grow up to 3 meters in height, with a spread of 1-2 meters, depending on growing conditions. Its upright, architectural form makes it an excellent choice for adding height and drama to tropical garden settings or large containers. Growing Conditions:Calathea lutea thrives in part shade to full shade, preferring warm, humid environments. It grows best in fertile, well-drained soils that are kept consistently moist but not waterlogged. In cooler climates, it can be grown in large containers and moved indoors during winter. The plant is frost-sensitive and requires protection from cold drafts and temperatures below 15°C (59°F). Mulching helps retain soil moisture and protect the roots in warmer climates. Uses:This plant is perfect for creating a lush, tropical ambiance in gardens, particularly as a backdrop plant or privacy screen. It works well in shaded areas, where its large leaves can create a striking visual effect. Calathea lutea is also suitable for large containers, making it a great choice for patios, courtyards, or indoor atriums. Maintenance:Low-maintenance once established, Calathea lutea requires consistent watering to keep the soil moist, especially in warm weather. Prune away any damaged or yellowing leaves to maintain its appearance. Fertilize with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer during the growing season to support healthy growth. Protect the plant from cold winds and frosts in cooler climates, as it prefers warm, humid conditions. Notes:Calathea lutea is a bold and dramatic addition to any tropical garden, thanks to its large leaves and upright form. While it thrives in humid, shaded environments, it can also tolerate some sun if kept well-watered. Its size and structure make it a great choice for creating privacy or adding height to landscape designs. Companion Plants:Pairs beautifully with other tropical plants such as Heliconia, Alocasia, and Cordyline. It also works well alongside smaller, shade-loving plants like Ferns and Maranta, creating a layered tropical effect in the garden. Common Name: Cuban Cigar Plant, Havana Cigar PlantBotanical Name: Calathea luteaFamily: MarantaceaeOrigin: South and Central America

Humidity: Thrives in high humidity environments. Regular misting can help maintain adequate humidity levels, especially in dry indoor conditions. Temperature: Prefers temperatures between 15-25°C. Avoid exposing the plant to drafts or sudden temperature changes. Uses Chamaedorea atrovirens is ideal for: Indoor decoration in homes and offices Adding greenery to shaded garden areas Creating a tropical ambiance in interior spaces and patios Maintenance Pruning: Remove any yellow or damaged fronds to maintain the plant's appearance.

Pests: Watch for common indoor pests such as spider mites, scale, and mealybugs. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil. Notes The Cascade Palm is non-toxic to pets, making it a safe choice for households with animals. It is also known for its air-purifying qualities, helping to improve indoor air quality.

Galvanised Edging x 2.4m Lengths
AUSTRALIAN MADE GALVANISED STEEL EDGING – AN AFFORDABLE AND DURABLE EDGE. Our Australian made BlueScope®, hot dipped Galvanised steel edging has a structural guarantee of 10 years, ensuring your confidence when purchasing and installing FormBoss™ in your garden. Galvanised steel will appear shiny and spangled when first purchased, however after a year or so the shine will dull down to a matte grey, all though you will still be able to notice the spangled effect. Galvanised steel edging blends in very well, as grey is a neutral colour and doesn’t take the focus off the plants and lines of the garden, it creates flawlessly separated contrasts in your design. To get the most out of your Galvanised steel edging be sure to pick up some cold galvanised spray paint to cover the areas you screw or cut as doing this during the installation exposes the inner metal which needs to be covered to protect the longevity of the edging. If you notice some surface rust from being nicked with the mower or whipper snipper we recommend using a wire brush to brush down the area, ensure it’s dry, and then coating the areas generously with your cold galvanised paint. We supply edging for practically all garden applications, our retail gauges are perfect for your garden borders around your family home, however if you require something stronger for commercial pathways or concrete formwork, our industrial strength gauges will stand up to the most severe conditions and will last up to 40 years in the ground. Gauges Available & Heights Available: 1.6mm 100mm, 150mm, 185mm, Gauges Available & Heights Available: 2.0mm 230mm, 290mm, 390mm, 580mm Lengths are all 2.4m

Jason and team are worth 10 stars! So helpful, so friendly! While I am a builder I have no knowledge of plants at all, left that to my brother and nephew who no longer can help. Jason came up with a plan for me, put them in today and the project is now finished off perfectly. Thanks again Jason! Will definitely be coming in again and will be recommending you to everyone. Thanks!
