I find that I only water when the leaves start closing up. In my experience waiting for the soil to dry up is unreliable when it comes to these. (every times I've seen them curl, the soil happened to be dry) These plants are pretty good at telling you what they want.

Hi! I'm from Rio de Janeiro, and I have a Triostar for a few months now. Love your video! 🥰 Something I think is important to point out, is that it's a tropical forest plant. In nature, it lives underneath bigger plants, closer to the ground, so it's natural state is really out of the direct sun and the soil is very rich in organic material, and also it loves humidity (just think Amazon forest) and also it gets drops of rain after all the other taller plants got 'em . Thanks for the video!

My best advice to people would be not to buy small. I got one in a four inch pot. It died back to one leaf before adjusting to the new environment and springing back. Once back, leaves were half brown due to my dry home, (I was giving distilled water from the get go) so I moved it under lights in my basement. Cut it back and the leaves grew back with no crispy edges at all. I have been told that the larger plants are more resilient and that I was lucky mine didn't die. I am a cheap person (and proud of that, lol) so as far as me, I am ok with the experience, but for others, buy them bigger if you want fewer struggles.

I've found the Triostar to be one of the easier of the prayer plant family for me too. Mine is about 2m / 6 feet from a due east window, and some 1m / 3 feet away from my humidifier. It's doing great but this will be its first winter with me so the jury is still out! I water all my plants with filtered water and so far no browning. Top tip for plants you like to shower is to water first with filtered water, then set the plant in the tub/shower with a rag around the crown of the plant before hitting it with the shower water. That way you get the cleaning of the leaves, you knock off the pests, but you don't get much tap water into the soil...

I find using coco coir instead of soil and controlling the nutrient intake of the plant myself works the best and you won't get burnt tips because you would just adjust the nutrients. With coco coir you won't have any bugs or things you don't want in there. Also, I find every once and a while throwing a little plain epsom salt into the water helps them a whole lot and provides stress relief.

First time I saw this was on a plant shop expedition, it was love at first sight! I think the foliage is just spectacular. I noticed with mine that when it's getting enough sun, the leaves go up at night. But when it isn't, they'll start looking like they're hanging down and barely lift up at all. When I was getting up in the morning and its leaves hadn't lifted at all, I got scared and moved it to a brighter spot, doing much better now!

I use rain water for all my sensitive ones like prayer plants and calatheas. I live in Texas so rain here is scarce except for one season. So I have to collect & save. But if I run out I use distilled & the brown tips don’t happen as long as I keep a humidifier going in my bathroom & that is where I keep mine running the humidity that high. I find my ferns and calatheas just do better where they are now with a west facing window in there. I wish I could keep them around the house cuz of their beauty but they look so ratchet without the high humidity. :(

I got one a few months ago, repotted with a well draining soil, and put it outside on my covered patio. For humidity I use a deep plastic saucer from Lowe's with river rocks. The rocks fill the saucer so the plant is suspended above the water and as the water evaporates it creates humidity around the plant. I water it maybe once or twice a week and when I water it refills the saucer. Mine hase grown huuuuuge and constantly has 3-7 new leaves coming in. Definitely tied for my favorite plant in my collection and probably the easiest one to care for!

I have had this plant for about a year now. 1/3 of it has always been brown and crispy (sometimes just the tips of the leaves, sometimes more) but it still lives and all the roots look really healthy. I finally decided to do some research and it says it's most likely my tap water. Today, I divided my plant up into three smaller plants and planted then in three separate ways (1:1:1 soil, bark, perlite; leca with a reservoir of flora series; and the third in normal crappy potting soil). I used bottled water for all of these so I hope at least one thrives. EDIT: just learned this is part of the prayer plant family and... interestingly enough, I murdered my prayer plant, too.

It was pretty brown and VERY papery when I got it but I put it right next to my humidifier, against the wall between two windows and it is thriving! 😁 Also I noticed the white parts hated getting misted, it made weird stains so I stopped that in favor for the humidifier. I watched so many videos on this plant when I got it, and this one is the best by far! Thank you!

My Plant started out as 3 leaved tiny plant in a 4 inch pot. It lives on my east facing uncovered patio, which gets a few hours of direct morning sun. During Winter, it is inside my sliding glass door(a few feet away from patio) Fast forward 1 year later: I have (2) 10 inch pots filled to the brim, with those beautiful leaves, 3 ft tall/wide.. I use a slow release fertilizer, and water with water from my aquarium, when rain is not sufficient. Otherwise I ignore it, and it rewards me with those beautiful leaves. My plants do NOT have brown leaf tips. These are some of the easiest plants to care for.

Hi Harli, good to see you again. I have this Stromanthe and I love it so much, I have had mine for over a year and it is doing great, I have it in my west facing window and it gets light but not direct light. I do have a humidifier going in the same area. I only water when it's dry, but not overly dry and I do mist it sometimes, and I do use filtered water. Mine doesn't look perfect, and I also have a few leaves that have some brown on the tips of them, but not as much as I was afraid it would get, it has been giving me a ton of new growth, and I love it. Mine is still in the nursery pot and I popped it into a cache po. Thanks Harli, I love any and all tips I get on my plants even when I have the plant, because sometimes I could do more for the plant. I really love this video it has some great information on one of my favorite plants. I hope you have a great week, and you are looking so adorable as a pregnant lady, take care and I will see you soon, love you, bye for now.

Hi I'm Brian from Auckland. I keep a little beaker of water behind the plant for humidity. Also I cut off any brown tips or marks, using a scissors and keeping the natural shape of the leaves.

Im here because I am trying to figure out why my trio star plant intends to have dried ends of the leaves, they are dried and broken off on a few, and I want her to be healthy as possible. The only tip that I do that I feel like makes her thrive...is I wipe her leaves down often. I literally just heard you say that the brown edges are normal. haha. thank you!

Mine has been living in a plastic bag for a few months as humidity in my house is quite low in winter. It looked terrible so I put a plastic bag on and wrapped the pot with elastic without any watering and it just recently popped 2 new baby leaves. I’m thrilled and frightened in the same time so I guess I’ll leave it in this condition for a few more weeks to see. Ps. Your plant looks gorgeous !!

Just a note that just because you use an organic fertiliser, that doesn't mean you cant overdo it! organic generally refers to "naturally occurring", which isnt always the best way to decide whether something is beneficial to your plant (which doesn't know if a molecule is naturally occurring or not!) Natural unfortunately doesn't mean its the best, so its hard to make comments on natural and organic stuff in a general sense. Some may even be worse (look at the use of rotenone or copper sulphate in organic agriculture!) love you videos, just wanted to drop a message to get you to think a bit more about the language youre using regarding plant food XP

My dad brought back this plant and it became my duty to take care of it since he’s stuck overseas (restrictions and all). Mine is growing really well, too well in fact, so is there anyway I can trim it? It’s growing taller and every so often I see new babies pop up from the soil. I’m scared it’ll collapse under its own weight or outgrow its pot if new babies start popping up. My pot is half occupied atm (half soil, half filled with plant). If anyone can advise, much appreciated :)

You can propogate these guys by cutting just under a node, sticking it in water with some good lighting and waiting until some roots grow (at least, that's how you can do it with other prayer plants). Propagating can help keep your plant at a certain size and not get too big. You can also sell or give away the propogated cuttings, which is fun. Hope this helps :)
