Description

Maranta Lemon Lime is a tender, clump-forming evergreen perennial cultivar with intricately patterned leaves. This rare plant is also called a Prayer Plant due to it’s habit of raising and lowering its leaves. Pop this beautiful plant somewhere it can catch your eye if you want to see the leaves move.

Light: This plant can tolerate a shadier spot but ideally place it in a space with indirect, bright light. Direct sunlight will burn its beautiful leaves.

Water: Naturally found growing on forest floors, it likes to be quite humid so during summer months water it when the first inch of soil is dry. Reducing in winter to when the top 2-3 inches of soil are dry.

Fertiliser: Feed once every 2 weeks throughout spring and summer using a water soluble houseplant fertiliser mixed at half strength. Do not feed during autumn or winter.

Toxicity: Non-toxic to children and pets.
