# So I bought this other peacock prayer plant yesterday thinking it was…

_Posted by 🪴 Botanical Bekka🌵 on 2025-12-09_

So I bought this other peacock prayer plant yesterday thinking it was a different variant than the one I currently have because it has the purple underside and the one that I currently have doesn't it's the same color on top as it is on the bottom sort of just translucent, but still beautiful, so when I went to identify it it told me that the one that I had was supposed to be maroon 🤦‍♀️😭 and was either getting too much light or not enough light. I have it in an east-facing window currently. I feel so bad for my plant now, The second picture is the smaller prayer plant the OG one and that's a picture of the underside😩🦚🙏🪴
