Signs of Cold Stress in Furry Feather Calathea
Symptoms
Furry Feather Calathea thrives in warmth and cannot withstand cold conditions. It flourishes best when temperatures exceed 65℉. In winter, it should be maintained above 60℉. If the temperature drops below 55℉, its leaves may lose some color. Following frost damage, the foliage progressively darkens to brown or black, and signs like wilting and drooping might appear.
Solutions

Furthermore, avoid placing it close to heating units or air conditioning vents to prevent excessive air dryness.
