The Sromanthe Triostar Plant (Stromanthe sanguinea) is a member of the prayer plant family but stands out with its colorful variegated foliage. It has long, broad, shiny leaves of green and white with burgundy-pink undersides. Often called the tricolor prayer plant, the Stromanthe Triostar plant looks like it was painted. This plant is known for its bright, intense foliage and performs well indoors.

While it tolerates wet roots, it prefers not to be that way. Be sure to set its pot on a bed of pebbles to allow for proper drainage. They like to dry out between waterings. The foliage on this shade-loving plant will fade or burn if exposed to excessive light. It is perfect for offices, bathrooms, or spaces with low light.
