Maranta leuconeura 'Beauty Kim'
About This Botanical
Maranta 'Beauty Kim' is a variegated prayer plant. Its green leaves are splashed and streaked with cream and pale green, and no two leaves look alike. The leaves fold up at night and open again in the morning.
It grows low and spreads, and stems trail over the pot edge with time. Keep the soil lightly moist, use filtered water if your tap water is hard, and give it medium to bright indirect light. Variegated leaves can scorch in direct sun.
Ships in the grower's plastic nursery pot.
