Ctenanthe Burle-Marxii (Fishbone Prayer Plant) 6” — A Striking, Low-Maintenance Beauty

Meet the Ctenanthe Burle-Marxii 6”, also known as the Fishbone Prayer Plant, named for its unique, feather-like dark green markings on silvery-green leaves. As part of the prayer plant family, its leaves gracefully fold upward at night, adding a touch of movement to your indoor jungle.

The Nitty-Gritty (Plant Care):

• Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light—tolerates lower light, but the best color and growth come with brighter conditions.

• Water: Prefers consistently moist soil—water when the top inch is dry, but avoid letting it sit in standing water.

• Humidity: Loves high humidity—misting or a pebble tray helps prevent crisping edges.

What It’s Telling You:

• Happy Signs: Vibrant, upright leaves with crisp, dark fishbone patterns.

• Needs TLC: Brown edges? Increase humidity. Yellowing leaves? Adjust watering. Leggy growth? Move it to a brighter spot.

Good News for Pet Parents:

This plant is non-toxic to pets, making it a safe and stylish choice for homes with animals.

Extra Love for Detail Lovers:

• The 6” size refers to the diameter of the nursery pot, not the height of the plant.

• Your Fishbone Prayer Plant will arrive in its nursery pot—any decorative planters shown are for inspiration only.
