Maranta leuconeura, also known as the prayer plant, is a tropical plant native to Brazil. It is a popular houseplant due to its attractive, variegated leaves that have a distinctive red or pink underside.
The prayer plant is known for its unique behavior of raising and lowering its leaves in a rhythmic manner, which is why it is also called the "moving plant." This movement is caused by the plant's sensitive leaves reacting to changes in light and temperature.
Maranta leuconeura thrives in well-draining soil and prefers indirect light. It is important to keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged, as the plant is prone to root rot. It is also sensitive to changes in temperature, so it is best to keep it in a consistent, warm environment.
The Prayer Plant is known to be a low-maintenance plant and is easy to propagate through stem cuttings. It is also known to be a natural air purifier, helping to remove toxins from the air in the home.
