6" red Maranta

Common name Prayer Plant.

If grown as a houseplant, Maranta has few disease or pest issues. Occasionally, fungal issues can arise on the leaves. To avoid this problem, water under the leaves directly onto the soil. Ensure well-draining soil to prevent root rot and fungus gnats.  Red-veined prayer plant prefers to be pot bound and should be in a fairly shallow pot due to its shallow root system.
