Maranta Prayer Plant Assorted, 3.5" Pot
Light Requirements
Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant leaf patterns. Avoid direct sunlight, which can fade colours and scorch the foliage. It also performs well in moderate indoor light conditions.
Water Requirements
Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil begins to feel slightly dry, and use well-draining soil to prevent root rot. Higher humidity levels will help keep the foliage looking its best.
Toxicity
Generally considered non-toxic to pets and humans. It is a pet-friendly plant, making it a safe choice for homes with cats, dogs, and children.
