8" Calathea Peacock 2.5 Feet Tall
Photographed individually · sold in small batches
The Calathea Peacock, often called the Peacock Plant or Calathea Makoyana, is a stunning prayer plant prized for its dramatic, feather-like foliage. Each leaf features a pale green center bordered by rich emerald patterns and soft burgundy undersides—like living artwork that moves with the light.
At about 2.5' tall in an 8" grow pot, this plant brings lush, tropical elegance to bookshelves, corners, and low-light spots, all while being completely safe for pets.
How to Care for a Calathea Peacock:
- Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can adapt to slightly lower light settings.
- Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist; water when the top 2" feels dry.
- Humidity: Loves high humidity.
- Pets: Safe for pets.
Each plant arrives with detailed care instructions to support healthy growth in your home.

Styling & placement
Check the care chips above for this plant's light needs, then match the room: bright-light plants love south- or west-facing windows; low-light varieties soften dim corners, shelves, and offices. Statement plants read best with space around them — beside a sofa, framing a window, or anchoring an empty corner. Smaller plants work in odd-numbered groups at varying heights.
