How to Care for Your Zebra Succulent

Place your Zebra Succulent in a bright area with plenty of filtered sunlight. Use a gritty, fast-draining cactus or succulent mix and water thoroughly only when the soil is bone dry. Overwatering is the most common issue—let the soil fully dry out between waterings to keep the roots healthy.

No need for high humidity or frequent fertilizing. During the growing season (spring and summer), a light succulent fertilizer once every 6–8 weeks will promote strong growth. This plant prefers warm environments and does best in containers with drainage holes.
