Maranta 'Silver Band' Prayer Plant (Maranta leuconeura)
$27.00
A plant that says goodnight. The Maranta Silver Band prayer plant (Maranta leuconeura) lifts and folds its silver striped leaves every evening, a small ritual you can set your day by.
Set it on a shelf you pass often. Watching those painted leaves rise with the morning is a two second pause that makes a whole room feel more alive.
Maranta Silver Band care
- Light: Bright, indirect light keeps the silver banding crisp. No harsh sun.
- Water: Keep the soil lightly moist, easing up a little through winter.
- Humidity: Appreciates a humid corner or an occasional pebble tray.
- Pets: Pet friendly and non toxic to cats and dogs.
- Growth: Low and spreading, perfect for shelves and wide sills.
Why do prayer plant leaves fold at night?
It is a natural rhythm called nyctinasty. The leaves follow the light, opening flat by day and folding upward after dark like hands at rest. It is normal, healthy, and honestly the best part.
