Nursery contributed plant descriptions
Fittonia zebrano is a fine Nerve Plant variety with lush green, oval leaves covered in striking silvery veins. Grows in a mounding clump. This plant grows best in well-drained, humus-rich soil with moderate water. They are surprisingly tolerant of a range of light conditions, but avoid direct sunlight. A humid environment is ideal to prevent crisping on the leaves. Apply a slow-release fertilizer sparingly in spring. Beautiful accent plant for borders and containers. It is especially excellent as a houseplant. Protect from freezing temperatures!
