Maranta - Rabbits Foot

Maranta ‘Rabbit’s Foot’ – Prayer Plant 🐾🌿

Maranta ‘Rabbit’s Foot’ is a charming variety of prayer plant, loved for its soft green leaves marked with dark brown blotches that resemble little paw prints. Known for its day-night leaf movement (leaves fold upward in the evening), it adds movement, colour, and personality to any indoor plant collection.

Key Features:

✔ Unique “rabbit paw” markings on velvety oval leaves
✔ Low-growing and spreads horizontally, ideal for pots or terrariums
✔ Leaves fold up at night – part of the prayer plant family
✔ Pet-friendly and safe for households with cats or dogs
✔ Brings a lush, tropical feel to indoor spaces

Care Instructions:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light – avoid direct sun which can fade the markings

• Watering: Keep soil consistently moist, but not soggy – reduce watering in winter

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

• Soil: Use a light, well-draining mix with peat and perlite

• Feeding: Fertilise monthly in spring and summer with a diluted houseplant fertiliser

• Temperature: Keep in a warm space (ideally 18–26°C) – avoid cold drafts

🌿 Tip: Rotate regularly for even growth, and wipe the leaves occasionally to keep them looking fresh.
