Zebra Plant

You can definitely see how this babe got its nickname! With beautiful striped leaves and geometric flowering stalk, it really brings that pop of color to any environment!

Common name: Zebra Plant

Botanical name: Aphelandra squarrosa

Care tips for a happy plant:

Light: bright indirect light or a few hours of morning sun (eastern exposure). Western and Southern exposure are a little too harsh and will scorch the leaves quite quickly!

Soil: regular potting soil- we use Happy Frog

Water: these guys do not need to completely dry out in between waterings. They don’t want to be doused in water, but they will thrive in soil that stays a little damp.

Humidity: these babes thrive in humidity! If you don’t have a humidifier close, invest in a mister or spray bottle to keep the leaves moist!

Temperature: average household temps

Toxicity: safe for pets and humans!
