The Red Maranta Prayer Plant, also known as Maranta leuconeura, is a striking indoor plant renowned for its vibrant foliage and unique leaf movements. This 6-inch plant features richly colored, deep green leaves adorned with bold red veins and a distinctive pattern, creating a dramatic visual appeal. The Red Maranta is often admired for its ability to "pray" by folding its leaves upward in the evening, making it an engaging and dynamic addition to any indoor space.

Ideal for indoor environments, the Red Maranta Prayer Plant thrives in bright, indirect light and enjoys high humidity to keep its leaves lush and vibrant. It grows best in a well-draining, moisture-retentive potting mix and should be watered regularly to keep the soil consistently moist, but not waterlogged. Regular misting or the use of a humidity tray helps to maintain the necessary humidity levels. With its captivating appearance and relatively simple care requirements, the Red Maranta makes an excellent choice for both novice and experienced plant enthusiasts.
