The Ctenanthe Burle Marxii comes from the tropical regions of Central and South America and is related to the Calathea. Her leaves make this beauty a real eye-catcher. The long, oval leaf has a striped herringbone pattern and is dark green with gray-green. The undersides of the leaves are reddish, which she will show you every night after dark. In the morning she will delight you again with her beautiful leaves!
This Fishbone prayer plant is a tough plant. She prefers shade and absolutely doesn't like direct sunlight as this will scorch her pretty patterned leaves. She appreciates a humid environment, therefor it is best you help her by misting her daily with a plant sprayer. It is important to keep her soil moist

Everything about Ctenanthe
Ctenanthe is a beautiful tropical houseplant with much popularity among plant parents. While they can be a bit fussy, their beauty makes up for it. They are native to Central and South America, primarily Brazil, where they grow in the undergrowth of humid and warm tropical forests.
Ctenanthe is a plant with a unique name that's pronounced "ten-an-thee" (the "c" is silent). They are also known as the Never Never Plant or Prayer Plant because they close their leaves at night as if they're in prayer and open them again in the morning. They are part of the Marantaceae family, along with Calathea and Maranta.
