Pruning red prayer plant — FAQ
When should I prune red prayer plant?
Spring for light reshaping; any time for dead or damaged leaves. Cut stems back to just above a leaf node with sterile scissors or pruners. Remove dead leaves at soil level. Cuttings taken this way can be rooted in water to propagate new plants.
How often does red prayer plant need pruning?
As needed; light trim annually in spring if needed. Red Prayer Plant needs very little pruning. Remove dead or yellowing leaves at the base as needed. If the plant becomes leggy, trim stems back to a node in spring to encourage bushier growth. Light, selective pruning is all this low-maintenance houseplant requires.
