Maranta leuconeura, known as the prayer plant, is celebrated for its striking foliage, featuring vibrant patterns and colors that can include green, red, and cream. This tropical plant is native to Brazil and thrives in warm, humid environments. Prayer plants prefer indirect, bright light but can tolerate lower light levels, which may diminish leaf coloration. They require well-draining soil kept consistently moist but not waterlogged, and benefit from high humidity, mimicking their tropical origins. Maranta leuconeura is known for its air-purifying qualities, making it a beneficial addition to indoor spaces. It is non-toxic to pets and humans.. Mature Size: 12″ x 12″ after 2 years.
