Are there 2 types in the same pot?
I bought this maranta and it’s been in quarantine so I haven’t really looked at it. I was inspecting it today and noticed 2 patterns. I have never had this lemon lime version of the plant, so I don’t know if more mature leaves look different. My red prayer plant looks the same from baby leaf to adult leaf.
The first pic is the whole plant.
The second is what I believe is the lemon lime.
The third, doesn’t really have the bright green, just what looks to be dark green/black looking spots? I looked on line but I can’t see what looks like that leaf?
Can anyone help me out with names of which is which if they are 2 plants?

@ittle.squid thank you! I kept seeing pics of the black spotted one with red stripes. And I saw dark green leaves with bright spots. So thank you for giving me the correct name!
@CheyenneRed hmm, I will need to check if it’s the same stem. I thought they weren’t, but I could be wrong. The middle of the blackish looking leaf doesn’t have any light green 🤷🏼♀️ but what do I know. I’m the one asking the question 😂
@TheOddAsity I had never noticed the difference between young and mature leaves on my lemon lime until you posted. I have a green one called the rabbit tracks..it doesn't have the ribbing like the lemon lime. But I could be wrong. Just watch if the leaves change as they mature. Either way..looks like you have a beautiful healthy plant.
@CheyenneRed I will for sure keep an eye out. I saw those rabbit tracks ones when I was looking up the leaves and they’re pretty cool!
@TheOddAsity the rabbit tracks is real persnickity. Every time I think it's given up the ghost it puts out a couple of new shoots. It has to stay in the case.
These prayer plants have given me a …. Run for my money for sure. My sisters were telling me they thought I was “good” with plants, and then I got a prayer plant and it keeps me humble to say the very least 😂
