My Collection

So, to start off with my first post on here, I'll go ahead and share a picture of my green prayer plant. So easy to grow. Water when the soil dries out (which, for me, is about once a week or once every two weeks), give them bright, indirect light, mist the leaves when you remember, and give them a shower once a month or so. I have mine under a tall lamp with a 23 watt daylight cfl in the bathroom and it does just fine.
Green Prayer Plant (Maranta leuconeura)
Definately one of my faves. I love the animation the leaves provide throughout the day. They pray all night and tend to droop through the day. The leaves on this one seem to appear neon green at some points as well. Stay tuned for a future post focusing on my Red Prayer Plant. :)
