Prayer plants, or Maranta leuconeura, are some of the most unique houseplants to have in your collection. Not only do they boast striking variegated foliage that appears painted, they also move their leaves in and out with daylight, mimicking praying hands and earning their common name.
And their special qualities don't end there, as you may not realise prayer plants actually make the list of indoor flowering plants. However, while it's true prayer plants can flower, it isn't always so easy to get them to do so at home. It requires creating the right growing environment and providing the right care for prayer plants to flower.
