Maranta 'Seraphine-umbra' care

Maranta 'Seraphine-umbra' is a forgiving choice for most rooms, developing a compact rosette within its first year.

Position it in bright indirect light and rotate the pot monthly for even growth. Water little and often, keeping the mix barely moist; the fastest way to lose one is a saucer left full.

Aim for average room humidity and use coco coir with added bark — roots here want air as much as water. It is mildly irritating to pets if chewed, so shelve it accordingly.
