About Snake Plant (Sansevieria Trifasciata)
Snake Plant, also called Mother-in-Law's Tongue, is a compact, upright succulent known for its sword-like green leaves with light horizontal banding. It's one of the toughest and most forgiving houseplants around, making it a favourite for beginners and busy plant owners alike.
Growing Conditions
- Light: Tolerates low light to bright indirect light; avoid prolonged direct sun, which can scorch leaves.
- Soil: Well-draining cactus or succulent mix.
- Humidity: Adapts well to normal indoor humidity - no misting needed.
Placement
Great for study tables, window sills, work desks, bathrooms, or shaded balconies - it handles low light and variable humidity better than most plants.
Care
- Watering: Let the soil dry out completely between waterings - usually every 10-14 days. Overwatering is the most common cause of problems.
- Fertilizer: Feed with a diluted houseplant fertilizer once every 6-8 weeks during the growing season.
- Repotting: Slow-growing; repot only every 2-3 years, or when roots crowd the pot.
- Pruning: Trim dead or damaged leaves from the base with clean shears.
Note: This listing ships a young potted plant. Growth rate and mature size vary by light, care, and environment. Sansevieria contains saponins and is mildly toxic if ingested - keep away from pets and children who chew on leaves.
