Maranta Care Tips

I finally dipped my toes into the Maranta world and wondered what tips everyone has for keeping it healthy. I know they love humidity and to avoid planting them in terracotta as they don't like to dry out. #VariegatedPrayerPlant #newplanttips

Yeah!! I think you'll enjoy this maranta! I keep mine near an east window. Be sure to keep them out of the sun or bright light.

I have mine in a home-made self-watering pot and I just keep the bottom outer pot full of water and the plastic nursery pot fits inside it.

Good luck, Kelsey! 💚
