Maranta Lemon Lime - 6"
Maranta Lemon Lime - 6"
You're really gonna love this bad boy. The Maranta leuconeura 'Lemon Lime' is one of our most popular plants, second only to the Swiss Cheese Monstera. This prayer plant will open it's leaves up during the day, and close them at night, giving it the appearance that it is praying, thus the name!
They don't get too tall, only about 12 inches when fully mature, but boy howdy, what they lack in size they make up for in looks.
Care: Hit this guy with bright, indirect light indoors with a well-draining potting mix that you keep moist but not soaking wet. The moist roots are the key to keeping this plant happy and healthy. Do not let the soil dry out between waterings; he won't thank you for that. Give him some high nitrogen fertilizer during the spring and summer months, and you've got a recipe for success.
