About: Nature, Growth & Benefits

Calathea Zebrina is a tropical, evergreen plant native to South America and thrives well indoors in Indian conditions when placed in indirect light. It is a non-flowering, ornamental foliage plant that grows in a compact, bushy form. One of its key benefits is its air-purifying properties, which help improve indoor air quality while adding calm and positivity to your surroundings. The plant is also pet-friendly, making it safe for homes with cats and dogs. Its soothing green patterns reduce stress and enhance focus, making it ideal for workspaces and bedrooms.

Why You Should Buy This Plant (Benefits)

• Visual Masterpiece: The bold striped pattern acts as a natural focal point in any room.
• Pet-Friendly: Unlike many indoor plants, the Zebra Plant is non-toxic to cats and dogs.
• Air Purifier: It actively removes toxins, making your home environment healthier.
• Mood Booster: Its lush green foliage reduces stress and brings a sense of calm.

Calathea Zebrina Care Guide

• Light: Needs bright, indirect sunlight. Direct sun will scorch the leaves and fade the stripes.
• Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Use filtered or RO water if possible to prevent leaf tip burn.
• Maintenance: Wipe leaves gently with a damp cloth to remove dust so the plant can breathe.

Ideal Placement

This plant loves indirect light and humidity. It is perfect for:

• Living Rooms: Place it on a side table away from direct windows.
• Bedrooms: Adds a soothing, tropical vibe.
• Bathrooms: Thrives in the natural humidity of a bathroom with a window.
• Offices: Great for desks or reception areas with AC (keep away from direct drafts).
