The leaves of Peacock Plant exhibit a characteristic behavior known as nyctinasty. This means that the leaves respond to changes in light by adjusting their position. During the day, the leaves are typically spread out horizontally, showcasing their beautiful patterns. In the evening or under low light conditions, the leaves fold up, resembling a prayer position, revealing the dark purple undersides.
