I throw out a fair amount of coffee from my thermos, a few times a week.
Is this good for my zebra plant?
Would it matter if it is hot/warm when I pour it onto the soil? Or should I let it cool down to room temperature?

Paul you can use the left over coffee, but I would dilute it first.....Once a week would be ok, but not every day!
Best served at room temperature.
OK, well I don't water the zebra ever day, anyways. I can dilute it, and make sure it is room temperature.
Sounds like a plan. Thanks.
Using coffee on houseplants like zebra plants can be risky due to acidity. Dilute it heavily if trying. A better idea? Enjoy your
Starbucks Iced Blonde Vanilla Latte yourself and stick to water for your plants—they'll thank you!
