After several unsuccessful prayer plant propitiations, I finally have 3 successful ones! Two of them are putting out a new leaf as well! Proud of my babies. I found that putting a tiny bit of liquid fertilizer in the water helps! The last picture is the momma plant! She’s been constantly putting out new leaves and flower stalks for at least 3 months!!🥺

AMAZING! That is my absolute favorite plant! My question is, what is your trick to keep it so big and beautiful!? Mine keeps getting brown edges around the leaves

The right lighting and higher humidity is key! The brown edges are definitely a humidity issue, especially with tropicals like calathea and maranta! I keep it in a west/ southwest facing window which seems to be the perfect kind of lighting for it!

So beautiful!! I’m slowly making mine full and big!! All of my babies are adults and growing! I can only get ones to root that have at least 2 leafs on it as well.

Oh that’s super interesting! That’s exciting! I’m looking forward to gifting my cuttings to friends and family!

Looks gorgeous!  
Unfortunately, mine doesn’t look very happy at the moment. Some leaves are starting to turn yellow around edges

Nice! I have not had luck propagating prayer plant! Inspired, maybe I’ll try again 💚
