Maranta Lemon Lime

Maranta leuconeura‘Lemon Lime’ is a prayer plant that earns its name with this daily rhythm of movement, known as nyctinasty. The foliage is equally compelling when still: broad, oval leaves are patterned with bold stripes of vivid lime green against a deeper green base, with a pale midrib and subtle pink-red venation on the undersides. Compact, lush, and happiest in lower-light spots where many other plants would struggle, it is a practical and beautiful choice for shadier rooms.
