{"product_id":"maranta-leuconeura-tricolour","title":"Maranta leuconeura 'Tricolour'","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMaranta leuconeura\u003c\/em\u003e ‘Tricolour’, commonly called the Prayer Plant, is a rhizomatous, clump-forming perennial celebrated for its vivid foliage and gentle, rhythmic leaf movement. Its name comes from the way the leaves fold upright at night, resembling hands in prayer. The plant features elliptic to ovate leaves in a rich dark green shade, patterned with pale silver lines that extend from the midrib to the edges. Each leaf is further enhanced by bright pink veins and deep purple undersides, giving a striking three-toned appearance. The leaves grow close to the soil surface, arching outward to form a compact, layered display. Though small tubular flowers may appear in summer, they are rare indoors and subtle compared with the ornamental foliage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGrowing Conditions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMaranta leuconeura\u003c\/em\u003e ‘Tricolour’ thrives in bright, indirect light and consistently warm, humid conditions. It prefers a peat-free compost rich in organic matter, kept evenly moist but never waterlogged. The ideal temperature range is between eighteen and twenty-six degrees Celsius. High humidity preserves leaf colour and prevents curling, so the plant performs beautifully in terrariums, bathrooms, or rooms with regular misting. Avoid exposure to cold draughts or harsh sunlight, which may scorch the foliage or fade its vivid markings. A shallow container suits its spreading growth habit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare and Maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis species is rewarding and easy to care for when provided with stable moisture and humidity. Water with filtered or rainwater to avoid mineral build-up. Feed every four weeks during spring and summer with a diluted, balanced fertiliser. Trim away old or faded leaves to maintain shape. Repot annually in fresh compost to sustain vigour and leaf quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEnvironmental Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMaranta leuconeura\u003c\/em\u003e ‘Tricolour’ brings calm movement and colour to indoor spaces.
