☀️ Light
☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)
The Maranta Leuconeura Kerchoveana Variegated Prayer Plant thrives in bright, indirect light. It’s ideal to place it where the sunlight is filtered through a curtain or slightly shaded by other plants. Avoid placing your prayer plant in direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves.
💧 Water
💧💧▫️ (Medium)
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water the plant when the top 50–75% of the soil has dried out. Use filtered or rainwater for the best results, as tap water may contain minerals that can cause the leaf edges to brown.
🌡️️ Temperature
🌡️️🌡️️🌡️️ (Warm)
