Further information on your plant
All plants are measured from the bottom of the nursery pot to the tip of the plant and if a height is specified, this is an approximate height, not set in stone. As all plants are living things, they will vary in size throughout the year, and we do our best to give a guide as to the size you can expect. If in doubt drop us an email hello@leafculture.co.uk. And lastly, minor flaws in leaves might be present and will not be covered for compensation. It's worth noting that plants naturally age like people and are rarely perfect.
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).
Customer Reviews
This plant provides a great point of interest due to its gorgeous leaves. I am very impressed with both the standard of the plant and the price. Very impressed with this company in general, I had an order of 12 plants and almost all of them actually exceeded my expectations in terms of their growth/bushiness/size. Every single plant was very healthy, with glossy leaves. The delivery arrived 36 hours after being placed (which was late at night) in robust and sustainable packaging. Personal touches also, good customer service and I loved the fact that I had an unexpected email saying that, as a result of my order, they had planted a tree in the Madagascar mangrove forest via Tree Nation. Wonderful.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review for our Calathea Zebrina plant. It's always a pleasure to exceed our customers' expectations. Thank you for mentioning our Tree Nation partnership, we are proud to be able to give back to the environment through our customers' support. We truly appreciate your business and hope to serve you again in the future.
This is the first time I’ve bought from Leaf Culture. I’m pretty impressed, and the plant is a good size and quality, but there is some damage to a few of the leaves. I don’t know if that was before delivery of during but I guess I don’t expect a plant to come with leaves I already have to trim off. But hopefully the plant will grow and I’ll get new ones soon.
Many thanks for your feedback Emma. Sometimes happens during delivery and it's a fast growing plant too :)
Healthy happy plant and great to have the option to collect it from the warehouse down the road. Thank you, I’ll be back!
Thank you Louise!
