Maranta Lemon Lime care

• Light: Gentle indirect light. An east window behind sheer curtains is ideal.
• Water: Aim for evenly moist soil, never soggy, never bone dry.

• Pets: Generally considered non-toxic to cats and dogs. Non-toxic does not mean edible; discourage chewing.
• Growth: Full and mounding, spilling over the pot edge in time.

Why are my prayer plant leaves curling?

Curling usually means thirst or dry air. Give it a drink, move it away from heat vents, and the leaves typically relax within a day or two. Chronic curl often traces back to unfiltered tap water.
