Description
Calathea Zebrina (Zebra Plant)
If plants had fashion sense, this one would be front row. Calathea Zebrina shows off bold, velvety green leaves with striking dark stripes — like nature decided plain was boring. It brings a lush, tropical feel into any space and moves its leaves with the light, giving your home that living, breathing jungle vibe.
Plant Care Guide
Light:
Bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sun — it will fade and burn the leaves.
Watering:
Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top layer starts to dry slightly. Do not let it dry out completely.
Humidity:
Loves high humidity. Low humidity can cause leaf edges to brown or curl.
Temperature:
Thrives in warm conditions between 18–26°C. Keep away from cold drafts.
Soil:
Use a well-draining, moisture-retentive potting mix.
Feeding:
Feed with a balanced liquid fertiliser every 2–4 weeks during the growing season.
