Red Prayer Plant (Maranta leuconeura)

The Red Prayer Plant has deep green, velvety leaves with prominent red mid-veins and light green spotting along the central leaf vein. The unusual leaves lie flat during the day but lift upward at night, almost like praying hands. Grow in a north window or other low light area of your home in a hanging basket or decorative pot to enjoy this tried-and-true houseplant that adds color and texture wherever it is grown. Keep evenly moist and grow in warm temperatures above 60°F.
