The Calathea Makoyana, also known as the Peacock Plant, is a captivating houseplant renowned for its stunning and intricately patterned foliage. This plant features large, oval leaves with a unique, striking pattern of deep green and lighter green or silver stripes, resembling the eye-catching plumage of a peacock. The underside of the leaves is a rich, burgundy hue, adding a dramatic contrast to its appearance. Typically growing to about 1 to 2 feet in height, Calathea Makoyana forms a bushy, compact shape, making it an elegant addition to indoor spaces. It thrives in bright, indirect light but should be protected from direct sunlight, which can scorch its leaves. The plant prefers consistently moist soil, with the top inch allowed to dry out between watering's. It also enjoys higher humidity, so regular misting or placing the plant on a humidity tray can help maintain its vibrant foliage. Calathea Makoyana does well in average room temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C) and should be shielded from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes. Its striking leaf patterns and relatively straightforward care requirements make it a popular choice for adding a touch of exotic beauty and elegance to any indoor environment.
