🌿 Sansevieria zeylanica, often referred to simply as a Snake Plant or sometimes as Zeylanica Snake Plant, is one of the most resilient and stylish houseplants you can bring into your home. Loved for its bold, sword-like leaves and its almost sculptural presence, this plant has earned its place as a staple in modern interiors and low-maintenance plant collections alike.

🍃 What sets the ‘Zeylanica’ variety apart is its distinctive foliage. The leaves are long, upright, and slightly wavy at the edges, showcasing a marbled pattern of silvery green over deep green, creating a striking visual texture. Unlike the more familiar ‘Laurentii’ variety, ‘Zeylanica’ does not have yellow margins, making it feel more minimal and monochromatic—perfect for contemporary spaces.

🌸 Flowering is rare but possible, especially if the plant is mature and thriving. When it does bloom, it sends up a slender stalk with clusters of small, tubular white or pale green flowers that may appear in late spring or summer. The blooms are often lightly fragrant, though most owners grow this plant for its foliage rather than its flowers.

📏 In terms of size, Sansevieria zeylanica’ can grow up to 75–90 cm tall, though its growth is slow and steady, making it a great floor or tabletop plant with immediate impact.

🧼 Care couldn’t be easier. This plant thrives in low to bright indirect light, tolerates drought like a champion, and rarely complains. It’s a top choice for beginners, frequent travelers, or anyone looking for a stylish plant that asks for very little in return.

💧 Watering should be infrequent. Let the soil dry out completely between waterings—this plant is a succulent at heart and stores moisture in its thick leaves. In winter, you may only need to water it once a month. Overwatering is the only real risk, so when in doubt, it’s better to wait.

⚠️ Note: Toxicity – Sansevieria zeylanica is toxic to pets if ingested. It can cause nausea, vomiting, or salivation in cats and dogs, so it's best placed out of reach of curious animals.

🪴 Format: Upon delivery, the plant has a height of approximately 60 cm (measured including the pot). It is supplied in a nursery pot with a diameter of 17 cm.
