Goeppertia (Calathea) concinna 'Freddie'

Goeppertia (Calathea) concinna 'Freddie' is a compact prayer plant with narrow green leaves and fine darker striping. New leaves rise from the base rolled up, then open into softly arched blades with a fresh, layered green pattern.

Short rhizomes sit below the surface and send up new shoots as the plant matures. In a pot, 'Freddie' slowly fills out into a leafy clump, so the roots need steady moisture, warmth, and an airy mix that does not stay heavy around them.

Slim striped leaves on Goeppertia concinna 'Freddie'

  • Growth habit: Basal, rhizomatous clump with slender petioles and softly arching leaves.
  • Leaf pattern: Pale to mid-green blades with darker feathered stripes running along the leaf.
  • Indoor growth: Stays fairly compact and fills out from the base with new shoots.
  • Daily movement: Leaves shift between day and evening, as expected from a prayer plant.

Brazilian background of Goeppertia concinna 'Freddie'

Goeppertia concinna is recorded from south-eastern Brazil, including Espírito Santo and Minas Gerais. Older names connected with this species include Calathea concinna and Calathea leopardina.

The narrow leaves give 'Freddie' a lighter look than many broader Goeppertia. Older leaves gradually arch outward as the plant matures, while fresh shoots keep appearing from the base. The leaf edges show stress quickly, so dry air, hard water, cold substrate, or strong fertiliser usually become visible as browning tips or crisp margins.

Keeping Goeppertia concinna 'Freddie' healthy indoors

  • Light: Keep it in bright filtered light or gentle medium light. Harsh direct sun can mark the thin striped leaves.
  • Water: Water when the top part of the mix starts to dry. Keep the root zone evenly moist, with enough air in the substrate for healthy roots.
  • Water quality: Rainwater, filtered water, or low-mineral water helps reduce brown tips.
  • Humidity: Aim for around 60% or higher. A humidifier, grouped plants, or a vitrine gives steadier humidity than spraying.
  • Substrate: Use a fine, airy mix with moisture retention, such as fine bark, coco fibre or peat-free fibre, perlite or pumice, and a small organic component.
  • Temperature: Keep it at 18–27°C with stable nights. Cold roots slow growth and make watering harder to manage.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth with diluted fertiliser. Too much fertiliser can mark the leaf tips.
  • Repotting: Repot only once the clump has filled the pot. A small size increase is safer than moving it into an oversized pot.

When Goeppertia concinna 'Freddie' starts to struggle

  • Crisp leaf edges: Check humidity, water hardness, fertiliser strength, and whether the plant dried too far between waterings.
  • Leaves curling during the day: The root ball may be too dry, the light too strong, or the air too warm and dry.
  • Several yellow leaves at once: Check the substrate and roots. A cool, wet mix can weaken the basal growth.
  • Pale speckling or fine webbing: Check leaf undersides and the midrib for spider mites, especially in dry indoor air.

Goeppertia concinna 'Freddie' around pets

Goeppertia concinna 'Freddie' is generally listed with Calathea and Marantaceae plants as non-toxic to cats and dogs. If your pet chews houseplants regularly, keep it out of reach to avoid mild stomach irritation from swallowed leaves.

What the Goeppertia concinna name means

The genus Goeppertia is named after German botanist Johann Heinrich Robert Göppert and belongs to Marantaceae, the prayer plant family. The species epithet concinna comes from Latin and means neat, elegant, or pleasing, which suits the orderly striped leaves of this species.

Goeppertia concinna 'Freddie' stays compact, with slim striped leaves, basal shoots and the daily leaf movement typical of prayer plants.

Great for Slowing Down Snack Time
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
My dog, an English Lab, is a voracious chewer, and destroys most toys in a matter of seconds. He also swallows most snacks without even chewing, and finishes meals in record time. It takes him about 20 minutes to get everything out of the Kong, and since I hide it somewhere on our property, he also takes several minutes to find it. He seems to really love the challenge, and it’s nice to have him take more time with a snack. I tried the Kong Easy Treat to seal the toy, but I find peanut butter works just as well (especially when frozen after being filled and sealed), and it’s cheaper and easier to use.

This product actually lives up to the title of indestructible.
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Product Packaging: Standard Packaging, Size: Large (Pack of 1), Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
This is the only toy I've had which my dog hasn't destroyed in minutes. I have had a few others that will at least last a few months, but Kong extreme has held up over the years. I like the fact that I can stuff it with treats, bits of other "indestructible" toys and seal it up with peanut butter, then pop it in the freezer to give her an extra 15 minute challenge. I have a couple so I can clean one while she's busy with the other. This size seems to be the best for a ~90lb. dog, the large end being roughly the same size as a tennis ball, which she loves as well.

Great product but choose a size or two up
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
Nice quality toy for long lasting and engaging play! One star docked for the sizing—I don't usually expect to need an xl anything for my 45lb border collie but he cant even fit his canine teeth into the large size to ease the jerky reward out in "hard" position but "easy" position he doesn't even tough the toy just grabs the jerky. Got an XL and it has been great for the jerky both easy and hard positioning. The larges I keep around for liquidy and frozen treats to keep the mess contained and they work very well for that.

Truly for Aggressive Chewers
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
Excellent product for aggressive chewers. The black Kong doesn't last forever BUT it is the most reliable toy I've used with my 60# pitt mix. I've returned so many toys that were advertised as for this girl's level of enthusiasm that I no longer buy anything else.
