Plant Description
Aphelandra squarrosa 'Dania', commonly known as the Zebra Plant, is an eye-catching tropical plant admired for its striking dark green leaves with bold white veins. This cultivar is known for its compact growth habit and brilliant yellow flower bracts that bloom in late summer or early fall. While the flowers last only a few weeks, the foliage remains vibrant year-round, making it a popular choice for indoor and tropical gardens.
Native Range
Native to the tropical rainforests of Brazil, where the Zebra Plant thrives in warm, humid conditions under the canopy.
USDA Hardiness Zones
Zones: 10–11 (Can be grown indoors in all zones)
Size
Height: 1–2 feet tall
Width: 1–2 feet wide
Light Requirements
Prefers bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while too little light may cause weak growth and fewer flowers. If grown indoors, place near an east or west-facing window with filtered light.
Soil Requirements
Well-draining, rich, organic potting mix with good moisture retention. A mix of peat, perlite, and pine bark works well. Slightly acidic to neutral pH (5.5–6.5).
Watering Needs
Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top Inch of soil feels dry. Use lukewarm water and avoid letting the plant sit in standing water.
Humidity & Temperature
Prefers warm temperatures between 65–75°F (18–24°C). Avoid drafts and sudden temperature drops.
Requires high humidity (60%+). Use a pebble tray, humidifier, or mist occasionally to maintain humidity levels.
Fertilization
Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer (10-10-10) every 2 weeks during the growing season (spring through early fall). Reduce feeding in winter.
Propagation
Propagated through stem cuttings in spring or early summer. Use a rooting hormone and keep cuttings in a humid environment until roots develop.
Uses
Indoor Decor: A striking houseplant that adds a tropical feel to homes and offices.
Terrariums & Greenhouses: Grows well in controlled, humid environments.
Shaded Outdoor Spaces: In warm climates, can be grown in protected outdoor locations like patios or under tree canopies.
Pest & Disease Management
Watch for common pests like spider mites, aphids, and mealybugs. Treat with insecticidal soap if needed.
Susceptible to root rot if overwatered—ensure proper drainage.
Leaf drop can occur if humidity is too low or watering is inconsistent.
