What type of sunlight does Zebra plant need?

Feedback

Zebra plant typically needs full, indirect sunlight in order to thrive indoors. This means that the plant should be exposed to bright sunlight that doesn’t hit it directly from a window or another light source, like a grow light. You can easily protect it from direct sunlight by placing a sheer curtain between your Zebra plant and the window, or by placing it behind a part of the window with a dark screen.
