Peacock Plant - Calathea makoyana?

Is the Calathea Makoyana an acid loving plant?





Also what is usual growing speed of this plant? How fast does this plant produce new leaves and such? I have had this plant for over 1 month now, and it has not grown anything...





Thanks in advance!

Calatheas are relatively fast growing plants, in tropical climates, they are literally left out to grow like weeds. However in order to produce beautiful foliage, light shade, well drained soil and a little controlled release fertilizer would be helpful : )
