Aphelandra Squarrosa Louisae (Zebra-Plant)

Temperature:
55-65 F

Yellow flowers on square terminal spikes, white-veined shiny green foliage. After flowering from September to November, keep the plant growing until about March, then take 4-inch tip cuttings for new plants rather than trying to make the old one repeat a second year.

Grow in an all-purpose mix, keeping it evenly moist as aphelandras wilt easily. Give some sun in winter, partial shade during summer.
