Ctenanthe Burle-Marxii, also called "fishbone prayer plant", is originally found in tropical forest so they prefer high humidity. A position in bathroom or kitchen with a bit higher humidity is therefore suggested. A filtered light away from strong light is prefer as well. The plant is related to Calathea, and has the same nice characteristic of pulling up its leaves in the evening. This means that you see the nice striped top of the leaf during the day, and when it gets dark the nice purple bottom.
