Zebra Plant
Aphelandra Squarrosa Dania
This Brazilian plant will be your new tropical favourite!
The Zebra plant is native to the south of Brazil and they are the best when it comes to humidifying the atmosphere and filtering toxins in the air. The Zebra plant received this name because of its unique dark green leaves with white stripy veins.
The plant is not difficult to care for, but for more inexperienced gardeners, it can be a challenging - but valuable - project. They are perennial plants and can live long lives if looked after correctly. It climatises well in the UK’s lower temperatures. Indoor plants also accelerate the transpiration process cleaning the air. NASA studies revealed that indoor plants reduce impurities and bacteria by 50 to 60% with tropical plants being some of the most effective.
We recommend extra attention in the first weeks and a quick response to any signs of stress. This will help you get used to how the plant behaves and how to best look after it.
- Perfect plant to give your love to

- In our office this plant was the talk point number one as it is a little diva, once watered in 30min its back to happy!
