Sanchezia speciosa





  • Scientific name: Sanchezia speciosa
  • Common name : Zebra Plant, Yellow Sanchezia, Shrubby Whitevein
  • Location: Faculty of Design and Architecture, UPM, Malaysia

This shrub was introduced to students in our department as part of the Plant Science subject. And even though I took the subject many many years ago, there will always be something new to learn.

 

This plant can be easily propagated by taking cuttings (as shown).
In conditions where the plant don’t get enough sunlight, the yellow colours on its leaves will not appear, as shown in the picture above.
