Levi, a Maranta Lemon & Lime or Maranta Leuconeura var. Erythroneura Lemon Lime is the harder to find cousin to Fabio, our Maranta Fascinator. The main difference is that Levi has striking green-yellow veining on his leaves.
Native to the rainforests of South America, the Calathea, Prayer Plant, and Maranta families, have unique leaf movements whereby they actually raise and lower their leaves from day to night as if getting ready for bed! And, if that wasn’t impressive enough, they’re also great at purifying the air!
Levi, Maranta Lemon Lime
Levi prefers bright indirect light to partial shade, without prolonged exposure to direct sun - a touch of morning sunlight however would be welcomed.
If you’re not sure what level of light you have, check the shadows cast by your plant:
- Minimal shadow = lower light
- Half shadow = indirect light
- Full shadow = direct sun
