Maranta Prayer Plant Red - 4" Pot

Maranta leuconeura 'red'

Striking hot pink lines grace these velvety multi-toned green leaves, while the underbelly features a gorgeous shade of red, hence the name of this plant. But the variegation isn't the most interesting aspect of this classic houseplant: at night, the leaves will actually fold vertically, just slightly, resembling praying hands. As for the size, this cutie only grows about a foot tall and stays rather compact, not trailing nor climbing much, making it a perfect option for small tables or spaces.

Light: Medium to bright indirect light
Water: Medium water requirement. Water just as the first few inches of soil dry out
Temperature: Average household temperature
Humidity: Average for houseplants, 60%
