Whenever I visit Lowe’s plant section, I always head to the clearance shelf, but on this Lowe’s plant buying trip they didn’t have anything on the shelf. However, one glance at the shelves proved fruitful in this very sick Zebra plant otherwise known as Aphelandra squarrosa.
At first glance, I noticed that they were “wick” watering this plant. I always think “wick” watering is a bad idea and as I began to repot this plant, I quickly noticed why this wicking system was no good for this root bound zebra plant.
Plant Care Tips:
Zebra plant enjoys evenly moist soil and can handle drying out a little in between watering. If you find your zebra plant leaves drooping that is a sign it needs more water. Not to worry, it should bounce back nicely.
Bright, indirect light is best.
If you want to fertilize, give it a boost in the spring when days start to lengthen.
