Lemon Lime Prayer Plant
Maranta leuconeura 'Lemon Lime'
Thiago is from the tropics in Brazil and loves to dance in the moonlight. He gets his nickname "prayer plant" from his leaves folding up at night, which mimics hands praying. It's been said he does this to make sure his roots get access to rainfall. Aww, thoughtful and handsome—swipe right?
Low to bright indirect light. Direct light will scorch his leaves.
SM: ~10-12" tall and a 4" pot.
MD: ~10" tall and a 6" pot.
LG: ~10-12" tall and an 8" pot. Note that this size ships in a hanging basket, but the attached hanger can be removed.
Pro-tip: Use filtered water when watering, or let tap water sit for a day prior. This prevents leaf tip burn.

My prayer plant is thriving. I put it in the bathroom where I get low light and it’s doing fantastic. Now I’ve moved it to my bedroom

I needed a plant that does relatively well in lower light and this guy does not disappoint!
