The Calathea makoyana, also known as the Peacock Plant, is a stunning indoor plant celebrated for its striking, patterned leaves. Each oval-shaped leaf displays deep green tones highlighted with light green, almost silver-like veins, resembling a delicate painting. Its bushy growth habit makes it an elegant focal point for any room.
This plant thrives in bright, indirect light. Indoors, place it in a well-lit spot away from direct sunlight to prevent leaf burn. Outdoors, it prefers a shaded area, shielded from direct sun exposure.
Calathea Makoyana enjoys consistently moist soil, so water regularly, allowing the top layer to dry slightly between waterings. It is sensitive to water quality—rainwater or distilled water is ideal—and requires good drainage to prevent root rot.
Carefully packaged in a sturdy plant-specific box, your Calathea Makoyana will arrive healthy, intact, and ready to enhance your indoor space with its vibrant, tropical beauty.
