house plant Fishbone Prayer Plant.

Fishbone Prayer Plant Ctenanthe amagris Swaying leaves This name comes from the way some species move their leaves, closing them up at night like praying hands and opening them wider during the day. If you like a varied plant with beautiful leaf patterns, then the fishbone prayer plant (Ctenanthe amagris) is the right choice. The prayer plant gets its name from its swinging leaves that fold up in the evening. Just like praying hands! Place the plant in a bright spot. We recommend keeping the potting soil moist, without leaving the plant standing in a layer of water.
