Maranta 'Lemon Lime'

Maranta 'Lemon Lime'

$19.00

Maranta ‘Lemon Lime’ is a luminous take on the classic prayer plant, a variety of Maranta leuconeura. Its velvety leaves are traced with electric lime-green veins against a softer green base, creating a layered, almost hand-painted effect. By day, the foliage lies open and expressive; by night, the leaves gently fold upward—hence the “prayer plant” name. It stays compact and low-growing, making it ideal for tabletops or anywhere you want a pop of color and movement.

  • Leaf curling or browning edges usually signal low humidity or inconsistent watering
  • Sensitive to tap water—filtered or distilled keeps foliage looking its best
  • Loves a stable environment—doesn’t enjoy drafts or sudden changes
  • A natural for bathrooms or kitchens where humidity is higher

Care Tips

Light

Medium to bright, indirect light is best. Avoid direct sun, which can fade or scorch the vibrant coloring.

Water

Keep soil consistently lightly moist. Allow the top layer to dry slightly between waterings, but don’t let it fully dry out.

Care

Thrives in higher humidity—consider a humidifier or grouping with other plants. Use a well-draining, moisture-retentive mix. Keep warm, and feed lightly during the growing season.
