Foliage

Features large, round, deep blackish-purple leaves. A striking, feathered pinstripe of vivid, hot pink outlines the shape of the leaf just inside its margin. The leaves rise up each evening in the classic prayer plant fashion.

Flowering Period & Fruit

Flowers are rarely seen in home environments; this plant is celebrated for its breathtakingly dark and colorful foliage.

Sun Tolerance

Requires bright, indirect light. This is crucial for maintaining the vibrancy of the pink markings. Keep out of direct sun, which will burn the leaves.

Maintenance

Moderate to High. Requires consistent high humidity. It is essential to water with distilled, filtered, or rainwater to avoid leaf damage. Keep the soil evenly moist but not soggy.

Root System

A fine, fibrous root system growing from rhizomes that is sensitive to chemicals in water. Requires a well-draining potting mix that also holds moisture.
