Stromanthe ‘Triostar’ (Stromanthe sanguinea)
A Prayerful Beauty for the Heart of Your Home

At Wright’s Market, we have a soft spot for plants that feel like cherished traditions—and Stromanthe ‘Triostar’ is just that. With its painterly leaves brushed in soft pinks, creamy whites, and deep forest greens, this tropical stunner brings a bit of joy and wonder to every corner it graces. It’s not just a plant; it’s a conversation piece, a touch of tropical warmth, and a gentle reminder to slow down and soak in the beauty of life.

Native to the rainforests of Brazil, Stromanthe is part of the prayer plant family. At night, its leaves gently fold together as if in prayer, a peaceful gesture that feels right at home in a household filled with love, gratitude, and quiet moments.

Symbolism:
Stromanthe represents inner peace, resilience, and spiritual connection. Its nightly “prayer” motion is a gentle nod to mindfulness and reflection—reminding us of the blessings found in everyday life.
