Maranta leuconeura ‘Lemon Lime’ – Prayer Plant

 🌿💛💚

The Maranta ‘Lemon Lime’ is a vibrant prayer plant variety, loved for its bright green leaves with striking yellow and lime-green veining. Like all marantas, its leaves fold upwards at night in a prayer-like motion, bringing movement and life to any indoor space.

Key Features:

✔ Bold lime-green and yellow veining on deep green leaves

✔ Leaves move with the day–night cycle (nyctinasty)

✔ Compact, trailing growth – ideal for shelves, desks, or hanging baskets

✔ Excellent air-purifying qualities

✔ A cheerful, colourful addition to prayer plant collections

Care Instructions:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but tolerates lower light levels

• Watering: Keep soil consistently moist, but not soggy – use filtered water if possible

• Humidity: Loves high humidity – mist regularly or use a humidifier

• Soil: Best in a peat-free, well-draining indoor mix with perlite

• Feeding: Fertilise every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer with a diluted houseplant feed

• Temperature: Thrives in 18–26°C, avoid cold drafts

• Growth: Low-growing and trailing, usually 20–30 cm tall with spreading stems

🌿 Tip: Rotate occasionally so leaves grow evenly, and keep in a humid spot to prevent browning leaf edges.
