Variant

Maranta leuconeura var. kerchoveana 'Variegata', commonly known as Maranta Variegated Prayer Plant, is an exquisite variety of Maranta that stands out for its striking leaf variegation. This plant is particularly admired for its unique and intricate leaf patterns. Each leaf is a work of art, featuring a blend of light green, dark green, and creamy white hues, often with striking pink veins. The leaves are oval-shaped and exhibit the characteristic prayer plant movement, rising and folding in the evening as if in prayer. The Variegated Maranta is a perfect choice for adding a touch of lush, vibrant beauty to any indoor space.

Care Guide

How to take care of Maranta Variegated Prayer Plant

Sun: Indirect

They should not be in a position to see the sun directly, although early morning or late evening sun is fine. Filtered sunlight through a sheer curtain is best and most homes are comprised primarily of indirect sunlight. The best spot for them is where they do not see the sun during the majority of the day but still get bright, indirect light.

Light: Medium

They will do well in medium light but will grow faster with brighter light. A good medium-light place in your home would be in the middle of a room that has a regular size window. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.

Water: When half dry

They need to be watered when the top half of the soil is dry to the touch. That usually takes about 1 week in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions, but it's always safer to underwater or give the soil a check before you water again.

Humidity: High

They like a high humidity environment, give them a mist daily or as often as possible. Alternatively, you can put them around a humidifier. Although they won't die if they don't receive enough humidity, their leaves may have some dry, crunchy, or yellow edges.

Pet Friendly

You can feel comfortable having this plant around your home in the potential case where your pet feels like nibbling on it. However, we typically recommend keeping your pets from eating any of your houseplants.
