Maranta Cats Moustache 12cm

🌿 Maranta ‘Cat’s Moustache’ Care Guide

Cat’s Moustache is all about pattern and personality — detailed foliage with fine markings that give it that quirky, expressive prayer plant charm. It’s lively, compact, and always doing something. 🌿✨

☀️ Light

• Thrives in medium to bright, indirect light
• Avoid direct sunlight — can fade and scorch the leaves
• Too much light can wash out the pattern

💧 Water

• Keep soil consistently lightly moist, but not soggy
• Do not allow it to fully dry out
• Use filtered or rainwater if possible (sensitive to tap water)

🌫️ Humidity

• Prefers high humidity (60–80%)
• Will struggle in dry air — leaf edges may crisp
• Ideal for bathrooms or grouped plant setups

🍽️ Feeding

• Feed every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer
• Use a diluted, balanced fertiliser
• Reduce feeding in cooler months

🌱 Quick Tips

• Leaves move (pray) throughout the day — completely normal
• Sensitive to water quality — avoid hard tap water
• Keep conditions stable for best results
