    Very nice plant with beautiful large leaves. Back side is burgandy. Looks similar to marantacea type plants. But not quite.
    Help me if you know what this is.

    Definitely a Calathea, as to which one I'm unsure at the moment, but you can google till you find, or someone else on here will know

    Ed,
    Thanks. It is the Calathea roseopicta variety. It is such a nice plant.
