    Plant at a Glance

    Botanical Name: Ctenanthe Burle-Marxii
    Common Name: Ctenanthe Burle Marxii

    Hailing from Brazil, this plant is part of the prayer plant family and is known for its distinctive fishbone-patterned leaves. It gently folds its foliage upward at night, like it’s praying. Fun fact: it’s named after Brazilian landscape designer Roberto Burle Marx.

    Light Guide
    Ctenanthe Burle Marxii — Light Guide

    Ctenanthe Burle Marxii prefers bright, indirect light, but will tolerate moderate light as well. In UAE apartments, it thrives near a filtered window or in a room that gets soft daylight. Avoid placing it in direct sun, as this can fade or crisp its patterned leaves.
    Watering

    Water when the top 2-3cm of soil feels dry. This plant likes consistent moisture but shouldn’t sit in waterlogged soil. If you're using one of our self-watering pots, just keep the reservoir topped up - it’ll help maintain the gentle hydration Ctenanthe loves, especially in air-conditioned environments.
    Temperature & Humidity

    This plant thrives in temperatures between 20-28°C and prefers higher humidity than many common houseplants. While it can adapt to most indoor UAE conditions, it will benefit from placement in a kitchen or bathroom, or from occasional misting. Keep away from cold air vents or areas with heavy A/C flow.
    Ongoing Care

    Gently wipe the leaves to keep their unique patterns clean and vibrant. Remove any yellowing or curled leaves at the base to encourage healthy growth. With the right care, the plant’s rhythmic “prayer” movements will become part of your daily routine.
