Maranta Leuconeura Lemon Lime 12cm Pot

the Maranta leuconeura ‘Lemon Lime’ is a striking variety of the prayer plant family that adds a burst of brightness to any indoor space. The underside of each leaf is a soft, contrasting shade of light green, giving this plant a dynamic look from every angle. The Lemon Lime folds its leaves upward in the evening, like hands in prayer—a beautiful daily movement that adds rhythm and character to your plant collection. 

Perfect for tabletops, shelves, or plant stands, this tropical beauty thrives with the right touch of humidity and care.  It's an excellent choice for those who want bold foliage without overwhelming height or size.

Care Requirements:

• Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate medium light but may lose vibrancy in lower conditions. 

• Water: Keep the soil consistently moist but never soggy. Use filtered or distilled water if possible to prevent leaf browning.

• Humidity: Loves high humidity. 

• Temperature: Prefers warm conditions between 16–27°C. Keep it away from cold drafts or sudden changes in temperature.

• Soil: A light, well-draining potting mix with peat or coco coir is ideal. Ensure the pot has drainage to avoid waterlogging.

• Feeding: Feed every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer with a diluted, balanced houseplant fertilizer.

• Pruning: Trim away any yellow or damaged leaves to keep the plant looking its best. Pinching back leggy stems encourages fuller growth.

Pet-Friendly: Yes! The Lemon Lime Maranta is non-toxic and safe for cats and dogs.
