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.

A familiar story, just with…..less.
Format: Kindle
So, as other reviewers make clear, this is very similar to Pack Darling and The Beta. It’s much closer aligned with The Beta, in plot and maybe more like Pack Darling with characters. That being said, I don’t hate this…..but it wasn’t great either. It’s both books mentioned but just….less. Less angst, less emotion, less feeling. The plot feels very half fleshed out, and the “bad guy” feels underwhelming. I didn’t really feel any real emotions from and of the male leads, except maybe Oliver. The others fell sorta flat for me. And Mika makes herself out to be this big bad ass straight outta training and then we never see it from here again with the one fitting room incident as the exception. SPOILER: The whole, “Oh, I’m actually probably an Omega, but I don’t wanna be but I do actually wanna be but no one can ever know my secret that I do nothing to hide “ thing fell so flat. She never commutes to believing she was secretly an omega, but also mentions her “secret” a lot. It just felt so manufactured. I’m intrigued enough to read part 2 and see how the author closes everything out, but this is not one I’ll recommend or ever come back to.

Good start to a series
Format: Kindle
I delayed reading the series for reasons I don’t remember. But my TBR list is huge so I thought I’d take a shot of this and I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t think the blurb about it was anything special. But it was a very good book. It took some interesting twists and turns. I am so glad the second book is already out. Because I would not have waited patiently. Very slow burn but good storyline. 🔥🔥/5

A good read
Format: Kindle
Multiple points of view. 3 Alpha men and an Omega male. She is a Beta in training for a new program placing betas in Alpha/Omega packs. Mila is only doing the program for the money to take care of her dad. She wasn't expecting to fall for a pack but when she sees this packs Omega she is done for. There is just something about him. His Alphas are good looking as well. Too bad she is hiding a secret and their government is acting shady. I liked it and can't wait to see where their story goes.

Slightly repetitive but I did love some things
Format: Kindle
I love this type of story. And omegaverse is one of my all time favorite genres. But there are a few things that pulled me out of my enjoyment while I was reading. It was repetitive at times as well as struggled with telling not showing. So we didn’t always feel like we were experiencing things with the main character. There were also some plot holes but they may still be answered in part 2. Now this isn’t to be said I didn’t enjoy parts of the story. I loved the almost instant love between Mila and Oliver. And how he started changing around her.

What a delightful read. The characters are awesome, the plot was so good, I loved it. I was intrigued and it kept me wanting more. Told in multiple pov, the book sucks you in and doesn’t let go. I cannot wait to read the next book.
