| Just like all living things, plants need food for survival. Your houseplants are no different.
As a rule, you should feed your houseplants during the spring, summer and fall. Feed sparingly during the winter months and keep your plants away from heating registers or radiators. |

| First, check them carefully for any pests and take care of those before you bring them in. It is also a good idea to give them a good washing or two with a strong spray of plain water when bringing them in, just to make sure there are no hitchhikers.

| Basically, care for it like any other plant—a bright location, water when the soil approaches dryness (despite the name it is not a desert plant), cooler temperatures away from heat vents and so on will help the blooms last longer. |

| Zebra plant (Aphelandra squarrosa) is a very demanding plant to care for. It has a "flower" that is actually a dense spike of bright yellow bracts that form at the tip of the stem. It forms in summer or fall and can last for several months. The tubular yellow flowers, however, are short-lived. |
