'Medallion'

Calathea Roseopicta 'Medallion', sometimes known as peacock plant, is a popular houseplant known for its strikingly patterned leaves. This tropical plant is native to Brazil and belongs to the Marantaceae family, which also includes prayer plants.

The Calathea Roseopicta 'Medallion' truly thrives indoors, where it finds a cozy echo of its natural habitat. Imagine it basking in the warmth and gentle humidity of your home, away from harsh direct sunlight, reveling in the soft, indirect rays it adores.
