Up to 1.2m in both height & width when reaching their maturity of five years, with up to 15cm of new growth being developed each season. Set the cutting into the compost, keeping the foliage above the soil line. Be sure to submerge the lower node into the soil wholly, or else root development will be hindered. Curl the leaf inwards and tie it loosely. As moisture is lost via transpiration in leaf's underside, this will provide higher humidity that will, in turn, reduce the risk of dehydration. Do not force the leaf past its bending capacity.

Rhizome Division (Moderate) - Separating the basal offsets into their own pot will not only expand your plant collection, but it'll also slow the process of becoming pot bound. The best time to divide is during the spring, with the stem's length surpassing 15cm (6 inches). Gently brush away some of the soil to gain better access to the offset's base (it may be slightly under the soil line) where the roots will be housed. While using a clean pair of secateurs or scissors, cut the stem with at least two root nodes attached to its base and two leaves. Set the offset in an appropriate-sized pot with adequate drainage and a 'Houseplant' labelled compost. The ideal location would provide bright, indirect light and temperatures above 15℃ (59℉). Maintain evenly moist soil, allowing the top third to dry out in between hydrations. After a month or two, treat it like a matured specimen by using the care tips mentioned above! Avoid direct sunlight and offer proper humidity by placing the potted plants into a transparent plastic bag with holes for the first couple of weeks.Maintain evenly moist soil, allowing the top third to dry out in between hydrations. Avoid promoting droughts due to the heightened chance of yellowing leaves and weakened growth. Not known to be poisonouswhen consumed by pets and humans. If large quantities are eaten, it may result in vomiting, nausea and a loss of appetite. Failed propagated stem cuttings- There are several reasons why the cuttings haven't rooted well, including: the time of year (spring or summer is best), its size (Maranta cuttings should have at least three leaves), poor growing conditions (replace water weekly for water-propagated cuttings, and avoid over-watering for soil-grown plants), and its growing environment (a bright sunless windowsill and warmth is important). Watering: Water your Maranta fascinator thoroughly but allow the top inch of soil to dry out before watering again. It's essential to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot. Consider using room temperature or filtered water to avoid chlorine or mineral buildup.

Maranta Fascinator Tricolour, commonly known as the Prayer Plant, is an indoor plant with some absolutely gorgeous, variegated foliage. The dark green base colour is the perfect offset for the stylized bright green line to join in the centre. Then, the finishing touch to the plant comes in the form of a rounded line of pink colour. The added element of it in a visual sense is the deep red underside of each leaf which, all in all, makes it a great addition for any home, office, kitchen, bathroom or hallway. The Prayer Plant will add benefits to the surrounding area with the use of its air-purifying qualities. They will remove harmful pollutants and unwanted toxins from the air, ensuring a clean and fresh atmosphere. The plant should be placed in bright, indirect light, with once-a-week watering required until lower levels will suffice in Wintertime. H1a (Hardiness Zone 13) - Must be grown indoors or under glass all year round. Never allow temperatures to dip below 15℃ or permanent damage may occur in the likes of flower loss, stunted growth and yellowed leaves. Create a humidity tray to provide a moist and stable environment for your plant. If the surrounding saturation is too low or the heat too high, its leaves may start to brown over and curl, especially in direct sunlight. Hose the foliage down from time to time to hydrate the leaves and keep the dust levels down. Those situated in either a bathroom or a dark location must not be over-misted as too much moisture surrounding the foliage will result in powdery mildew and leaf-spot disease .The species' epithet, leuconeura, can be translated from Latin to mean 'white viens', in reference to the foliage's variegations. Open the bag every two days for half an hour for the prevention of disease. After six weeks of being placed in soil, remove the bag and follow the care tips provided above. Choose the healthiest, most established vines that are wooded, but still juvenile enough to slightly bend. This propagation method can be taken from spring to summer, with the stem (not including petioles) being at least 15cm (6 inches) in length with two nodes (one for foliar development and the other for root growth). Although more nodes are fine, be sure only to submerge the bottom ones to avoid inappropriate rooting elsewhere, which will be more difficult when it's time for soil placement. Always use lukewarm water, and if you choose to use tap water, allow it to stand for at least 24hrs before application. Maranta tend to be quite sensitive to temperature change, so pouring cold tap water immediately into the pot will not only add fluoride into the soil, but it could even cause yellowed leaf-edges over time. The green leaves of this handsome house plant are threaded with bright red veins, as well as attractively patterned along their midrib with yellow-green splotches. Once settled and the shoots have lengthened, mature plants often develop a delightful trailing habit. All in all, it's a showy plant, and curious too, as the leaves tend to fold their leaves up at night - which is why they are commonly referred to as prayer plants.

Watering should be carried out once a week throughout the year. However, due to its love of humidity, misting it with water in between those periods is recommended. In Winter, the level of water can be reduced due to the drop in temperature. Pests and Diseases: Maranta fascinator is generally resilient to pests, but it may occasionally encounter common houseplant pests like spider mites or mealybugs. Regularly inspect your plant for signs of infestation, such as webbing, tiny insects, or yellowing leaves. Treat the affected plant with an appropriate insecticidal soap or horticultural oil, following the product instructions. Maranta will naturally flower in the warmer months of the year, sporting small purple (or yellow) flowers at the tips of each stem. The flowers only last around two weeks at most, which is why this group of plants are mostly grown for their beautiful variegatied leaves. Here's an example of their flower below.
