Light Required
This plant can easily survive in low light conditions but they also thrive in a bright place with indirect sunlight. Too much direct sunlight can eventually make the foliage dry and crispy.
-
Watering
The Red Stripe thrive when the soil is moist but not soggy. This plants roots are prone to rot; therefore your plant must have a good drainage system so extra water can flow out of the pot. Use filtered water whenever possible as prayer plants are sensitive to the salts and chemicals that can be found in water.
-
Best Growing Conditions
It is ideal to keep your Red Stripe in a room that faces South or West, as this allows the plant to absorb sunlight but not directly.
