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.

Our dog loves it but it wasn’t durable enough to last
Color: Dogwood Jack, Size: Large, Color: Dogwood Jack, Size: Large
Our lab took to it as soon as we gave it to her. Perfect size for our 80 lb yellow lab. However, now that it’s in about 10 days, she’s able to break off chunks from this bone that are dime size or larger, and we have to throw it away

No problems after a year and a half
Color: Dogwood & Calming, Size: Medium
Have been regularly buying these for my corgi for about a year and a half. The 2 pack lasts about a month or 2 each time. Pieces break off in small enough pieces that they safely pass through his digestive system. He gnaws each one down to about 1/4 the original size before we take it away and give him a new one. He continues to have regular bowel movements and has a healthy appetite so I can’t imagine any problems arising after so long. I have tried other alternatives and every other similar chew breaks off in larger pieces and didn’t feel comfortable letting him chew/eat them. I noticed there are a few 1 star reviews saying their dogs got sick off these but after a year and a half I have had 0 issues with this product. I guess it depends on the dog and how big of pieces they are swallowing. My dog ingests pieces about the size of a grain of rice so just pay attention and you should be fine.

Long lasting and safer alternative to sticks
Color: Dogwood & Calming, Size: Medium
These are great, very durable, and have lasted a very long time. Much safer for my dogs than the random sticks they find in the yard. They do get shorter with chewing eventually, but they don't break off in little chunks like I've seen with some nylon chews, and they don't splinter like wood. Medium size works well for both my 16 lb Cavalier and my 60 lb Pyrenees/Golden mix. They're both moderate-to-aggressive chewers, though size obviously affects how much damage they can do. I wish you could buy the hemp chew separately because that one is very much a favorite in my house, so after 2 years and 2 purchases, I have barely any left of the remaining hemp chew, but still 2 of the dogwood chews that neither dog is as interested in anymore. I'd love to buy a couple more of just the hemp one.

Your dog will thank you.
Color: Dogwood & Fresh Breath, Size: Large
My dogs loves to chew on these. They make a small mess but not as bad as other chews. They are food for keeping teeth clean.

Nice chew toy
Color: Dogwood Mushroom, Size: Medium, Color: Dogwood Mushroom, Size: Medium
Super durable and puppy loves it. It was a bit hard for her at first but now at 5 months it’s one of her favorite things to gnaw on! It is heavy for the size but seems to be great quality and has given many hours of chew time with minimal wear.
