Calathea ‘Medallion’ (Goeppertia roseopicta ‘Medallion’)

Medallion is a foliage selection valued for its large, rounded leaves and bold patterning.

This selection features broad, oval to nearly circular leaves with layered green patterning and darker outer margins, creating a strong, medallion-like design. The foliage emerges from a central base and develops into a dense, upright clump with overlapping leaves that form a full, layered canopy. The undersides display rich purple tones, adding contrast and depth, while the larger leaf size gives the plant a substantial, balanced presence in containers and interior placements. This calathea is widely used in interior programs for its bold foliage, full form, and ability to serve as a focal point in plant groupings and decorative displays.
