Goeppertia makoyana aka Peacockplant

Peacockplant presents a moderate level of care, which allows plant enthusiasts with some experience to expand their skills and knowledge.

Peacockplant should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Peacockplant loves a well-draining soil. Perlite and vermiculite help with drainage, while coco coir adds organic matter, so a good potting soil mix will have all three. You can improve store-bought soil by adding some perlite to it.

To ensure optimal growth, the Peacockplant prefers bright diffused light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.

Peacockplant is not known to cause harm to humans or pets.

The Peacockplant is not in need of supplementary humidity. Most water is taken in by plants through their roots, thus soil watering is the most efficient way to provide humidity to your plants.

The Peacockplant should be repotted either when it doubles in size or annually, whichever comes first. Providing new potting soil with all the vital nutrients annually is enough to support the growth of the plant, and thus, there is no need for fertilizer. Remember that plants derive their energy from the sun, not fertilizer.

The Peacockplant is clumping in nature, with new growth originating from the soil in close proximity to the original plant.

Peacockplant’s native range is Tropical Americas.
