Sansevieria trifasciata Laurentii is probably the most recognisable and popular Sansevieria houseplant with its mottled grey-green leaves and creamy-yellow margins. 

Snake plants, also known as mother-in-law’s tongue or sansevieria, have become increasingly popular, and rightly so. With their striking lines and hardiness, they’re the houseplants even black thumbs can show off. They also act as air purifiers to improve your home’s air quality.

Sansieveira Trafisciata Laurentii Care:

Light: Best in moderate to bright, indirect light but will adapt to low light conditions too.

Water: Allow the soil to dry out before watering, then water thoroughly and allow to drain freely. Do not allow the plant to sit in water as this will cause root rot.

Temperature: Happy anywhere from 15-23°C and as low as 10°C for short periods.

Feed: Apply a weak dose of cactus or general-purpose feed once a month at most during the growing season. Sansevieria are low maintenance plants and do not require a lot of supplementary feeding.

Air Purifying: Sansevieria filter airborne toxins and are part of our clean air plant collection.

Height and Growth Rate: Ultimate height 75-100cm. Slow growing.

Toxicity: Mildly toxic if eaten. Keep away from children and animals.
