Did not expect my prayer plant to sprout a flower! - eviltoast

Got a lovely surprise yesterday morning coming in to my office! I have a little prayer plant on my desk and it seems to be sprouting some cute little flowers now! Never expected it to flower. Totally made my day!

      No, they don’t seem to last long at all. Those two there have already fallen off but there are three more farther down.

      It brings me a lot of joy that it was happy enough to flower for me. I spent many years thinking I was terrible at talking care of plants, but now, knowing and better understanding what they need, it has taught me a lot.

      Thanks for your comment!

    I have one of those too! Glad yours is blooming. Mine flowers sometimes, but sadly it got infected with thrips a couple years ago and I haven’t been able to kill them. It flowers less often, but does okay with regular maintenance on my end (rubbing all the surfaces with a little neem oil and soap in water).
