The Zebra plant is a fairly popular plant which is grown for its flower bracts and dark green leaves with prominent white colored veins. So if you are looking for a flowering or a foliage plant then this is a plant for either or both. The Zebra Plant makes a great ornamental plant for displaying indoors.
Light: Bright light without direct sunlight during summer time is preferred.
Water: It's important to keep the soil moist to the touch, and not water logged or too dry. It's advisable to use luke warm soft water (not hard water).
Humidity: They like slightly higher humidity than many other plants of 60% - 70%. You may need to raise the humidity levels in a room artificially by placing the plant in a humidity tray with pebbles or use a humidifier appliance. Low humidity levels within an artificially heated room during winter is not going make a Zebra plant very happy.
Temperature: Temperatures from 60-75 ºF (15-23 ºC) are ideal and no lower than 55 ºF (13 ºC).
Fertilize: Feed with a balanced fertilizer once every two weeks during spring and summer.
Soil: Most multi-purpose or peat based potting soil mixes are fine to use.
Pruning: When the flowers begin to die remove them. Also prune the stem and leaves down so there is only two rows of leaves in height left – once the bract begins to die off. This can help prevent the plant getting leggy and losing leaves (which most do) while giving the plant an opportunity to grow the following year.
Toxicity: Non- Toxic. Keep out of pets reach, might irritate mouth and/or paws.
