Care for Calathea Zebrina
- Wet feet is probably the major cause of failure when growing zebra indoor plants. A lack of water, however, will cause leaves to curl. Humidity is the next problem to be conquered when growing zebras indoors. Plants should be misted several times a week.
- Use soil that holds moisture and drains well. A 2 part peat and 1 part sand or perlite mix will do the trick.
- Water thoroughly during the growing season then naturally reduce during winter. Good drainage is important.
