Stop overthinking Lemon Lime Prayer Plant care. 🌿💚
The Lemon Lime Prayer Plant (Maranta leuconeura ‘Lemon Lime’) is known for its beautiful dark-green leaves with bright lime-green markings. Unlike the Red Prayer Plant, this variety gets its striking look from shades of green—no red veins needed. 🌱
Here are 3 important things to know:
1️⃣ LIGHT ☀️
Give it bright, indirect light. Avoid harsh direct sunlight, which can scorch its beautiful leaves.
2️⃣ WATER 💧
Water when the top inch of soil begins to dry. Keep the soil evenly moist, but never soggy, and don't allow it to dry out completely.
3️⃣ SOIL 🪴
Use a well-draining potting mix and a container with drainage to help keep the roots healthy.
BONUS TIP 🌿
Like other prayer plants, its leaves may lift and fold upward in the evening and lower again during the day.
