Big, Round, Silver-Striped Foliage

Calathea orbifolia is a true showpiece in the houseplant world. Huge, rounded leaves unfurl in soft waves, each one painted with silvery stripes that radiate from the center like a living mandala. As the foliage catches light, the pattern shifts from soft sage to shimmering silver-green, adding instant calm and luxury to bedrooms, living rooms, and home offices. Unlike many dramatic tropicals, Calathea orbifolia is grown primarily for its foliage, so it looks good every single day—not just when in bloom.

Lush, Low-Mounding, and Wide-Spreading

Rather than growing tall like a tree, Calathea orbifolia forms a low, lush mound of foliage. New leaves emerge from a central crown on short, sturdy petioles, slowly building a complete, rounded silhouette. Indoors, most plants grow to about 18–24 inches tall and 18–30 inches wide in a roomy pot, with individual leaves often reaching 8–12 inches across. The growth rate is moderate: not so fast that it outgrows its space overnight, but steady enough that you’ll notice fresh leaves unfurling regularly in good conditions. This wide, low habit makes it perfect as a floor plant beside a chair, under a window, or on a plant stand where those big leaves can really shine.

Soft Light, Even Moisture, and High Humidity = A Happy Calathea Orbifolia

Calathea orbifolia prefers bright, indirect light—light that’s strong enough to read by but softened by distance or a sheer curtain. It will tolerate medium to lower light, but the striping will be boldest and growth most vigorous with bright, filtered light and zero harsh sun on the leaves. The soil should be kept evenly moist but never soggy. Allow the top inch to dry, then water thoroughly and let the excess drain away. This plant is sensitive to salts and chemicals, so filtered, distilled, or rainwater is ideal if your tap water is hard or heavily treated.

Humidity is the secret sauce with orbifolia. It thrives in a warm, humid environment, with a relative humidity of around 60% or higher. Grouping plants, using a pebble tray, or running a small humidifier nearby will help prevent brown edges and keep the leaves lush. Standard indoor temperatures between 65°F and 80°F are ideal; protect it from cold drafts, sudden temperature swings, and anything below approximately 60°F.

Use Indoors as a Soft, Spa-Like Focal Plant

Think of Calathea orbifolia as interior “landscape architecture” for your home. Indoors, it’s a perfect focal plant in a bedroom, living room, or spa-like bathroom where you want soft, leafy texture without harsh lines. Its broad, rounded leaves and low profile make it an excellent choice for filling empty corners, framing accent chairs, or anchoring plant groupings near north- or east-facing windows.

Because Calatheas are considered non-toxic to pets, orbifolia is a great candidate for households with cats and dogs (though you’ll still want to discourage chewing). It pairs beautifully with other tropical plants—pair it with upright plants like fiddle-leaf figs and palms for height, or with trailing pothos and ferns for a layered, jungle-like look. In warm, frost-free climates, it can summer outside in a shaded, humid spot, then move indoors before temperatures drop.

Xylimelts work...very very well..finally moisture to my mouth for longer than anything i have tried
Size: 80 ea
i have xerostomia...this is a dry mouth due to radiation treatments...I have minimum saliva. I must sip water or a liquid with every bite of food. When i talk my mouth quickly dries and makes it difficult to speak......I have tried many....many different sprays, gels, etc. etc. Along came Xylimelts and it has been the best thing for me to date. It does add some moisture to my mouth and the great part is that it lasts for a very long time. I use the mint free only because my dry mouth is more sensitive to certain tastes. I once used Biotene and now i stay away from all of their products.....Biotene was around a while and marketed their product and had become very popular....Glaxo Smith Kline ( the big drug company that only cares about their profits over our health) purchased Biotene and had altered the product for the worse and they have done this with other products. They actually removed beneficial ingredients and replaced them with poor ingredients....Here is just one example: Xylitol was in one of their products ( Biotene toothpaste) when they purchased the company from Biotene. Xylitol has beneficial qualities and they replaced it with the Cancer in Laboratory rats ingredient called Sacharin... They have removed other ingredients as well...I stay away from any product from Glaxo Smith Kline. I have my own personal boycott and that means I no longer buy their Tums as well... Yes...They played their games with Tums also.....so i just do not buy their products. Xylimelts does work for me...very very well. It adheres to the gums above my teeth and it just stays there adds moisture to my mouth. Obviously i recommend this product

I'd rate them 5 stars if only I'd had them to use over the last two decades!
Size: 80 ea
A couple of years ago my dentist and hygienist told me about Xylimelts, which I promptly ordered and appreciated as soon as I used them. After suffering teeth problems due to meds for years, it's too late for me to save my uppers -- dry mouth had decayed my teeth, even with plenty of hydration, good dental hygiene and wonderful dental care (when I didn't put it off a few times, sigh...), and I’m about to get dentures :( . I started out putting two in my mouth at night, but that seemed to be a bit much -- they'd cause me to drool and stain my pillow (washed right out!) Mostly out of concern for the cost of Xylimelts, I began putting only one in my mouth at bedtime. This has worked well for the most part, though some nights I still wake up with a dry mouth, and sometimes put in another one. This could be due to allergies though, my nose is often stuffy as I sleep. However, two would probably prevent this from happening. I tried the non-mint kind first, then accidentally ordered the mint kind once, but I prefer the non-mint flavor. It’s got no real taste, and that suits me fine. By the way, it does take 10 seconds to adhere them, but if you are not comfortable with that spot, you can move them to a better one without them losing their “stick” to the outside of your teeth or gums.

These are fantastic!!!
Size: 80 ea
All I can say is, "WOW." I've been fighting terrible dry mouth since going on cpap three months ago (my mask covers nose and mouth). My machine has a humidifier but that wasn't helping at all, even when turned up so high it was raining in my mask! The first nite I tried these lozenges it was like a gift from the angels! I used two, putting one on each side as per the instructions. It was a little weird sticking them to my molars at first; they didn't seem to want to stick but finally took hold. I also had to kind of adjust them so they didn't get knocked loose when I closed my jaws. But once they were in place they worked like a charm. I don't find the taste at all objectionable. It's kind of a very, very mild mint. I will *definitely* order these again. If you fight dry mouth, these are worth trying even though they're on the expensive side. They aren't as expensive as dental work if they end up protecting your teeth from cpap-induced cavities! UPDATE - my oral hygienist told me that CPAP users often begin to develop cavities and other dental problems from using the device. She said that the use of xilitol, which is in these lozenges, night help stave off such problems. Here I am, after years of CPAP use, and I have had no dental problems other than a lost filling! These lozenges are a lifesaver!

It works well but uncomfortable
Size: 80 ea
I take blood pressure pills that dry my mouth out. The inside of my lips feel burned from being so try overnight. It's uncomfortable. I discovered these tablets and thought I'd give them a shot. I am struggling with them. I don't have a large mouth and these have to sit inbetween your gums and your lip or cheek. They are bigger than I would like. Plus they kind of hurt my gums. You're supposed to put them in place, wait ten seconds so they stick and then there is no further instruction other than they work for several hours. Do we just leave them in place all night because the uncomfortability makes it so I can't sleep easy. I also wear a nightguard on my top teeth to keep me from grinding. I love Xylitol, I bought some to use in my coffee in the day time so that part is a great thing. I just can't get past how uncomfortable it is to have them fixated in your mouth all night. One last thing... you're supposed to put two in. I did that the first night and it was like... NOPE. I let them sit for 5 minutes like it says and then I just dissolved the rest in my mouth because no way could I leave them in place and sleep. The next night I just used one on my bottom gums. It was still uncomfortable. If they could make them smaller, it would be way easier. Other than that, the Xylitol does work and my mouth isn't nearly as try when I wake up in the morning.
