Ctenanthe Burle Marxii – The Striking Peacock Plant!

The Ctenanthe Burle Marxii, also known as the Peacock Plant, is an absolutely stunning plant that showcases beautiful, elongated leaves with a striking pattern of silver and dark green, resembling the feathers of a peacock.

🌱 Care Instructions:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate moderate light. Avoid direct sunlight, as it may scorch the leaves and dull the stunning variegation.
• Water: Keep the soil consistently moist, but not soggy. Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry, but make sure the pot has good drainage to prevent waterlogging. Like many Marantaceae plants, it’s sensitive to chemicals, so using distilled or non-chlorinated water is best.
• Humidity: Enjoys high humidity and thrives in a moisture-rich environment. To maintain the vibrant foliage and keep your plant happy, consider misting regularly, using a humidity tray, or placing it in a more humid room like a bathroom.
• Soil: Prefers a well-draining, slightly acidic, rich potting mix. A general houseplant mix with added perlite or coconut coir works well to retain moisture while providing good drainage.
• Growth Tip: For the best results, keep your Ctenanthe in a humid environment to encourage healthy growth and maintain its beautiful foliage. This plant thrives when given extra attention to humidity and light conditions.
