The Sinningia ‘HCY’s Peacock’ is a striking and highly sought-after hybrid celebrated for its vivid, exotic foliage and elegant flowering display. Its leaves are the star of the show, featuring a rich, dark green base adorned with intricate iridescent patterns that shimmer with hints of blue and teal, reminiscent of a peacock’s tail—hence its evocative name. Each leaf is thick, slightly velvety, and sculpted with subtle undulations along the edges, giving the plant a lush, dimensional appearance. Red to pink petioles provide a beautiful contrast that enhances the jewel-toned foliage, making it a standout specimen in any collection.
This compact, rosette-forming gesneriad thrives in bright, indirect light, warm temperatures, and well-draining soil, reflecting its native tropical origins. Its semi-succulent leaves allow for a forgiving watering schedule, while careful care ensures vibrant coloration and robust growth. When blooming, Sinningia ‘HCY’s Peacock’ produces delicate, tubular flowers in soft shades of pink or lavender that rise gracefully above the foliage, adding a refined, tropical flair without overshadowing the plant’s stunning leaves.
Ideal for collectors of rare and ornamental gesneriads, this hybrid combines visual drama, manageable size, and unique iridescent patterns that make it a living piece of art. Perfect for display on shelves, windowsills, or in curated indoor plant setups, Sinningia ‘HCY’s Peacock’ brings sophistication, intrigue, and a touch of exotic elegance to any indoor garden.
