Calathea makoyana – Peacock Plant 🦚🌿
(Elegant Patterned Prayer Plant)
Delicate, detailed, and beautifully eye-catching, Calathea makoyana is loved for its intricate leaf pattern that resembles peacock feathers. Soft green foliage is layered with darker markings and translucent tones, while the undersides reveal rich purple hues, creating movement and contrast as the leaves shift throughout the day. Compact and graceful, it’s perfect for bedrooms, bathrooms, desks, and living areas that benefit from refined tropical texture.
Thriving in warm, humid climates like FNQ, Calathea makoyana performs beautifully indoors with gentle light and consistent moisture. Like other prayer plants, its leaves naturally lift and fold through the evening, bringing personality and life to your plant collection.
🪴 Planting tip: Prefers bright, indirect light or filtered shade. Keep soil evenly moist using a free-draining indoor mix and maintain humidity where possible. Avoid direct sun, dry soil, and cold drafts.
🌸 Flowering: Rare indoors; grown mainly for its stunning patterned foliage.
📏 Mature size: Typically 30–40 cm tall and wide when mature.
🧡 Your plants: Healthy, well-established Calathea makoyana in a 140 mm pot, with intricate patterned leaves and fresh new growth ready to thrive indoors.
