We measure plant height from the base of the pot to the very tip of the tallest leaf, held straight upright. This is the height listed on our site. Once your plant settles in and relaxes, it may sit a little lower. No two plants are the same, so some variation is natural.
Prayer Plant - Maranta Leuconeura
Sold with a stylish ceramic plant pot, this distinctive plant has stunning green leaves with red veins and pink undersides. It earned its name because of the way the leaves fold together at night, like hands closed in prayer. Best known for its colourful, patterned leaves that move up and down with daylight, the Prayer Plant is, of course, a member of the Calathea family.
What you might not know about this colourful Calathea, is that the Prayer Plant is actually a trailing plant and in more mature specimens you’ll see it start to grow horizontally and eventually trail downwards with its colourful leaves cascading.
These classics were Jo’s very first picks when she launched Beards & Daisies 10 years ago, and they still hold a special place in our collection. That’s why we’ve dug into the archives to show how our photography has evolved - from the early days of plants photographed on stools to the editorial lifestyle photography you see today.
These pots are glazed and finished by hand, which means you may notice some minor imperfections such as small surface bubbles or light variations in colour.
