Calathea ornata

Calathea ornata, also known as the Pinstripe Calathea, is a species of flowering plant in the Marantaceae family, native to Brazil and other parts of South America.

The plant is valued for its ornamental leaves, featuring striking white and green stripes, and is often used as a decorative houseplant.
