Also known as the “Tricolor Prayer Plant,” is a popular ornamental plant appreciated for its stunning foliage and unique characteristics. Native to the rainforests of Brazil, it belongs to the Marantaceae family. The plant’s most striking feature is its variegated leaves, which are a combination of green, pink, and cream colors. The leaves have a distinctive pattern and fold up at night, resembling hands in prayer, which is a characteristic of many prayer plants.
To care for Stromanthe tricolor, provide it with bright, indirect light, consistent humidity, and regular watering to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Its vibrant and eye-catching foliage makes it a sought-after choice for those looking to add a touch of the tropics to their indoor spaces.
