Soderberg's provided lovely flower arrangements for a 4-H event I put together at the state fair this year. They were so helpful in managing the logistics of delivery during the fair (showing up right on time with a smile) and the centerpieces were absolutely perfect for our needs, at a great price. Highly recommended -- and if you haven't seen their displays in the Horticulture Building, you're missing out! -Matthew Keefe

I have used Soderberg's for a while now. I appreciate the quality. The first time the delivery was left at the wrong house but I am so happy that I kept using them. It was several years ago. Service has been without a hitch since then. They have a good selection of products and professional service. Thank you Soderberg's. -Hank Laake

Kim is a tremendous help when it comes to customer service. She listens and really understands the customers need for prompt, professional service. She understands the flower business. In my experience, working directly with Kim at Soderberg’s Floral is by far better than placing and relying on a 1-800 or online order where so often things go wrong: order is not correct, order is late, or order does not get delivered at all. Trying to get any kind’ve help from their customer call centers is met with frustration and little to no help at all. You can be assured that Kim will listen and provide first class, personal service that your special occasion requires. She understands the time sensitive nature of such occasions and importance of follow through. The flowers are absolutely stunning. -J H

I called first thing in the morning in a panic trying to get flowers to a service happening a mere two hours later. Ava was extremely efficient and calm on the phone, assured me they could do it, and took care of business quickly. They didn’t even charge for the rush job. And lo and behold, an absolutely gorgeous arrangement arrived on time!!! I got a lovely thank you from the family with no one the wiser that it had been last minute. I would strongly recommend Soderberg’s to anyone looking for a reliable, efficient, talented florist. Truly a superlative experience. Thank you so much!! -K A

Very impressive service, I liked the fact that they sent me a link with a picture of the arrangement before it left the shop for delivery and email of date/time it was delivered. Flawless service and the arrangement was beautiful! Will definitely be using them again in the future -Cren Free

  • Botanical Name: Calathea 'Ornata'
  • Common Names: Peacock Plant, Zebra Plant
  • DescriptionCalathea Plants, native to tropical South and Central America, Africa, and the West Indies, are grown primarily for their beautiful, brightly colored, upright, oval leaves. The various Calathea varieties have leaves with purple undersides and various vibrant colorful patterns on the top side.
  • Care: Calathea Ornata tolerates different lighting conditions, including medium to low-light spots. Its ideal lighting is bright, indirect light but it can also grow in partial shade. Avoid harsh direct sunlight to prevent sunburn.

     This plant needs regular watering to keep its soil slightly moist. Check the soil twice a week and water when the first 2 inches of the top soil is dry.

     This plant needs well-drained, nutrient-rich soils that are able to retain some moisture. Choose a peat-rich potting mixture.

     This plant thrives in temperatures of 65°F-85°F and grows well in normal room conditions. It does not do well when the temperature drops below 50°F. Do not place this plant near venting systems or air-conditioners. This tropical plant needs a humidity level of at least 50%, so you should use a humidifier and mist your plant often when your indoor environment is dry.

     This plant should be fertilized once per month during the growing season (spring/summer) with diluted houseplant fertilizer. You can also feat this plant with a slow-release fertilizer once or twice per year.

    Ornata is considered non-toxic and safe for pets.
