Recently pruned and propped this beauty and she seems super happy. I swear this is the most bountiful plant in my collection, I have been able to propagate and share with so many friends and family!

How do you keep the leaves so healthy and pretty? I have the maranta and some of my leaves is turning yellow and others a few are turning brown and crispy on the tips.

Mine is about 3ft away from a grow light that I have in the corner of that room so I think the extra light definitely helps! I water and fertilize according to the app… but I’ve noticed the cuttings that I put into water seem to be a lot more happy and vibrant :)

I also added a trellis for a little more support! Old leaves can sometimes yellow off and die though, so that could be what’s going on with your plant!

I’m new to this and I know I’ve seen others say prayer plants aren’t good for newbies but I just couldn’t help it, it was pretty. When I look on Amazon at grow lights but there is so many different types and not sure go with. I feel like I’m over thinking it. The window I have mine at is full sun all day. So I have it next to the window so it’s not getting direct sunlight when I have my curtain open. Would u suggest moving it to less light?
