Is This the Right Plant for You?
Native to the Brazilian state of Espírito Santo, the Vitória Peacock takes its name from its spectacular patterns, reminiscent of peacock feathers (or cathedral windows). Recognized by the Royal Horticultural Society for its unique beauty, this plant is a true botanical celebrity. Its leaves, marked with green along the veins and tinged with purple underneath, tell the story of a plant that evolved to capture the subdued light of tropical undergrowth. The Vitória Peacock is a living work of art, perfect for those seeking a sophisticated, exotic touch of nature.

Watering
Approximately 33 cl. of water 1 or 2 times a week in sprint and summer, every 10 days in fall and winter.
Care Guide
For watering, use water at room temperature and whose chlorine has evaporated. Let the top of the soil on 2-3cm dry between 2 waterings. Remove the decorative moss beforehand to avoid wetting it. Water in 2 times, spaced about 10 minutes apart, so that the soil absorbs the water well. Spray the foliage of your plant regularly to increase the humidity level. Clean the foliage once a month with a soft cloth and diluted black soap. Rotate the pot a quarter circle at this time to promote smooth growth. Apply suitable fertilizer once a month from March to September.
