Maranta Silver Band | Prayer Plant

Maranta Silver Band 

We're so pleased to have these rare silver band Maranta! Often referred to as Prayer Plants, along with their closely related cousins Calathea, Maranta leaves have the unusual characteristic of lying flat during the day and then closing upwards at night as if in prayer. Silver band is a rare sought after variety, with silvery grey hues extending the whole leaf of the plant.

How to care for your Maranta -

Water:  Water once a week from the bottom of the plant if it has drainage holes, and allow the soil to dry out before watering again

Light: Maranta grow best in bright light, but will tolerate shade.

Humidity: Allow regular humidity levels.

Temperature: They enjoy warmth, about 20 degrees C.
