Calathea Zebrina - Zebra Plant

With its eye-catching foliage, the Calathea Zebrina is sure to be a conversation starter in your home. Its elongated leaves boast a unique zebra-striped pattern, creating a bold and beautiful display reminiscent of the majestic savannas. In fact in our shop, this is one of the house plants that really catches people's eye.

But it gets better because Calathea Zebrina is not just about looks; it's also a low-maintenance companion, making it perfect for plant enthusiasts of all experience levels. It thrives in moderate, indirect light and enjoys a humid environment, making it a great fit for most indoor spaces.

One of the most fascinating features of this plant is its daily rhythm. As the sun rises, the Zebrina's leaves gracefully open up, revealing their zebra-like stripes in all their glory. When night falls, they fold up, ready to rest for the evening. It's like having a living clock that marks the passage of time.

This house plant is known for its air-purifying qualities, contributing to a healthier and more refreshing atmosphere in your home. And don't worry about sharing your space with furry friends; the Calathea Zebrina is non-toxic to pets, ensuring a safe and stylish environment for all.

In summary, Calathea Zebrina is a beautiful, easy going house plant and just remember to keep the soil slightly moist and when watering, use a water dechlorinator to detoxify the heavy metals found in tap water (as this will help avoid the edges going crispy).
