Resurrected Calathea Roseopicta

I named this plant Zoila like the Nicaraguan pain-in-the-bleep maid of the Bravo show, Flipping Out. It took months to understand why she was so upset. In the before photo, she was put on display with walls fully blocking the sunlight and was being watered with regular tap water. After some research, I re potted her, moved her onto the busy counter where customers come and go and unhindered sunlight. The week I began to water her with filtered or spring water, her mood changed. Zoila is doing very well and is a happy little plant.
