calathea makoyana 35cm
The Calathea Makoyana (or Peacock plant) is a houseplant with beautiful leaves. It belongs to the marantaceae family. It's also called cahtedral windows, because its leaves look like the windows of a church.
But the Calathea has another special characteristic: it follows the rhythm of nature day and night. In the morning light the beautiful leaves of this special plant spread open to catch the light. And in the evening these red-green leaves will prepare themselves again for the night.
