Scientific Name: Maranta
Common Name: Prayer Plant

The Maranta genus of plants is in the Marantacae family, which also includes Calathea, Goeppertina, Stromanthe & Ctenanthe. Many of these plants are interchangeably referred to as "Prayer Plants" due to their nyctinasty habits, which is the fancy word for leaves that fold up at night and unfold in the morning. Quite a few of the plants also have very similar foliage and growth patterns, which just adds to the fun!

Maranta can be a little more temperamental than other tropical houseplants and may be better suited for more advanced plant parents, but don't let us stop you from trying! Their foliage is very striking and unique, which is one of the reasons why these are still highly popular houseplants! 

The Prayer Plant is a classically popular houseplant that has strikingly beautiful marking on the leaves - fondly called rabbit track markings. The leaves curl up at night and unfurl in the morning (hence the adoption of the common name "Prayer Plant"). We regularly stock a lot of fun variegations of the Prayer Plant in 4" pots. If left to its own devices, this fun plant will trail with time. 

Care Notes: Low to bright indirect light, water when top two inches of soil are dry. 

***Due to the unique nature of plants, the one we carefully choose for you won't look exactly like the photos. but it will be just as beautiful!

Organize your jewelry with a clean aesthetic look!
Color: Gold
The Lolalet Necklace Stand is highly recommended for anyone whose main struggle is tangled necklaces. It transforms daily jewelry selection from a chore into a pleasure. If you prioritize beautiful display, easy access, and reliable tangle prevention, this helix-shaped organizer is a stylish and functional winner. Plenty of room for 10 plus necklaces, it was really easy to put together and looks clean and organized and keeps the jewelry I own easy to find.

It is just right and adorable as well as secure
The color green is beautiful . It’s very small and easy to carry about . I bought the larger double zip one which was perfect . Being undecided I bought both the large and small one as well as a much larger one because I could decide for sure since two were gifts . I have given the larger zip one in green to my granddaughter as a gift . I was going to return the tiny one but I love it . It will be perfect at this size and price point to keep and use as a spare jewlery case for quick changes from the gym or just a tiny travel case for a weekend away . It’s very well made so no worries about it being crushed . The closure is great . And it’s soft inside for good jewlery to be secure . It a great product to hold find jewlery for going away for a night . It’s easily organized . If you only own one travel case I would suggest the larger one by this company which has two secure zippers . It has more space and is well made . If you want tiny go to quick change from office to gym or over night then I would suggest the small one . The color green is beautiful , smooth, functional and the inside is adjustable to fit quite a bit of different jewlery . Easy to grab and it could sit on a vanity or bathroom daily to hold your jewlery changes . It’s also a great size for travel for tweezers , q tips , travel brush, eyeliner . You don’t have to use it for just jewlery . Small enough to toss into a bag or even glove compartment for changing from a sorting day to evening dinner . So I am keeping it for myself .

Cute color, Useful, Good size
For me it’s not too big or not too small, love the texture and look of the box, and I can fit all of my jeweler in this one, i love the big box at the bottom and the smaller on the right side plus the removable board for stud earrings and stuff. Seems like good quality too

Easy to move jewelry box
Its really cute got it as a gift for my niece for her jewelry collection. It's not large I would say it's in the small size categories but it has levels and does hold a ton of jewelry then expected. Green is acurate and the feel of it pretty soft. Easy to move around with. For being on sale well worth the price
