Propagating Prayer Plant (Maranta) by Division or Cuttings

To share your prayer plant:

Division (Best in Spring)

1. Repot with 2:1 potting soil:perlite.
2. Separate a rooted section, pot in small container.

Stem Cuttings (Spring–Early Summer)

1. Cut below a node near base.
2. Root in moist peat/perlite under plastic (with air holes).
3. Or dip broken end in rooting hormone, plant directly in soil.
4. Must have stem portion—leaf alone won’t root.

Keep humid until rooted. Share the joy!
