Calathea Makoyana - Peacock plant - with white pot - ↕70cm - Ø19cm

The Peacock Plant, also known as Calathea Makoyana, is a beautiful houseplant that instantly brings an exotic atmosphere into your home. This plant is known for its stunning leaves reminiscent of a peacock's feathers, hence the fitting name. With a height of 70 cm and supplied in a stylish 19 cm white pot, this is an immediately usable eye-catcher for any interior. The plant is not only visually appealing but also contributes to a healthier indoor climate thanks to its air-purifying properties. What makes the Peacock Plant truly unique is the rhythm of its leaves. In the morning, the plant spreads its leaves wide to catch the light, and in the evening, the leaves close with a rustling sound, as if the plant is going to sleep. This phenomenon makes the Calathea Makoyana a lively addition to your living room or office. The leaves themselves feature a beautiful pattern of dark green spots on a light green background, while the underside has a deep purple color that creates a beautiful contrast.

In terms of care, the Peacock Plant requires a spot with indirect sunlight. A position in partial shade is ideal, as direct sunlight can burn the leaves and cause the beautiful pattern to fade. Water requirements are average; keep the potting soil slightly moist but ensure that no layer of water remains at the bottom of the pot. Because the Calathea originates from the rainforest, it greatly appreciates higher humidity. Regular misting helps keep the leaves healthy.
