The Maranta leuconeura 'Cat's Moustache' (or Black Band) is a, prayer plant requiring bright, indirect light, high humidity (50–60%+), and consistently moist—but not soggy—soil. They are sensitive to tap water minerals, preferring distilled or filtered water to prevent brown, crispy leaf edges. Use a well-draining, airy potting mix, and keep them in temperatures between 18–27°C
