Calathea ‘Makoyana’ – Peacock Plant
Calathea ‘Makoyana’, commonly known as the Peacock Plant, is celebrated for its stunning, decorative foliage. Its oval leaves feature a light green background with intricate dark green feather-like patterns, and striking purple undersides, resembling the plumage of a peacock. This compact, upright plant adds a tropical, elegant touch to shelves, tabletops, or plant arrangements.
Like other Calathea varieties, ‘Makoyana’ thrives in a stable, humid environment with indirect light and consistent moisture, making it perfect for bright indoor spaces away from direct sun.
Care Requirements
• Light: Bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, which can burn the leaves.

• Humidity: Prefers high humidity; mist regularly or use a humidifier for best results.
• Growth Habit: Compact, upright rosette with patterned green leaves and vibrant purple undersides.
