🌿 Maranta ‘Light Veins’ Care Guide

The Maranta ‘Light Veins’ is a gentle glow in plant form — soft green leaves traced with warm golden patterns that seem to shine, especially as the light fades. Like all prayer plants, its leaves lift and fold through the day, bringing calm movement and life into your space.

☀️ Light

• Thrives in bright, indirect light

• Can tolerate lower light than most houseplants

• Water when the top 1–2 cm feel dry

• Prefers filtered or rainwater if possible

🌫️ Humidity

• Loves high humidity (60%+)

• Ideal for bathrooms, terrariums, or near a humidifier

• Dry air causes leaf curling or crispy edges

🍽️ Feeding

• Gentle fertilizer every 4 weeks in spring and summer

🌱 Quick Tips
