    Zebra Plant

    Zebra Plant

    A quick trip to a local nursery was the order of the day for my sister and I. She has this lifetime project of creating and maintaining a wonderful yard. These trips to the nursery are ways to find ideas for her sanctuary. I took the camera and found this Aphelandra squarrosa (commonly but ambiguously called “zebra plant”), which is a tropical plant of Brazil. This plant is often used as a house plant.
