I have a prayer plant that my grandmother bought for me when I was pg with my fourth and last child. I was so sick with morning sickness and she said she bought me the plant to cheer me up, that it wouldn't live long but I would enjoy it while I had it. Well grandma passed on several years ago and my youngest child will be 24 in the fall and that plant is still going strong! It is big and full and every time I look at it I think of Grandma telling me it wouldn't live long but to enjoy it while I had it. LOL But now I have a question, how do you take starts or start a prayer plant? This same youngest child of mine is now into plants big time and I would love to give him one that I had started from the plant that was bought for me when pg with him. Don't ask me how I've kept it alive all these years as I've never had much of a green thumb. I'm learning lots here at DG though and have started misting it a lot hoping to help with the brown tips on the leaves. So please advise on starting some new plants from this one. Thanks ~ Brenda
Here is a picture of it taken next to some stretocarpus plants so you can see it is nice and healthy after all these years.
