Meet Marcel! He's my niece's plant and I was taken by his dark shiny leaves that have a delicate thin pink vein running through them. Marcel's technical name is calathea sanderiana but it is also known as a pinstripe calathea. These plants like moderate, dappled shade and are happiest in the bathroom where there is moisture in the air.
I liked Marcel's leaves so much that I decided to design a print for my Spoonflower shop.
It would look great as a wallpaper print in an entrance hall. Match the colour of the front door to the colour of the light pink veins.
This print would make a great backdrop for one of my pot plant artworks.
