Sansevieria trifasciata Black Gold, Snake Plant

It is an evergreen herbaceous perennial plant forming dense stands, spreading by way of its creeping rhizome, which is sometimes above ground, sometimes underground. Its stiff leaves grow vertically from a basal rosette.

It's tough, durable, and highly tolerant of low light and poor soil conditions. The tall, narrow, sturdy leaves are stiff and pointed. Colors include dark green, pale green, green edged with yellow, and variegated light green and yellow. Some species send up delicate flower spikes.

Sansevieria can be divided easily during repotting. Alternatively, new shoots, which emerge from the soil as spikes, can be taken and potted independently. They are rapid growers once established. Cuttings can also be taken, but it's much easier to rely on division.

Pot the snake plant in a clay container that is wider than it is tall since the root system is shallow. Choose a pot the same diameter or one size larger than the plant's current container. Plastic is not the best choice for these plants, because strong roots can easily crack and break weak pots.

Sunlight: Sansevieria prefers bright light with some sun. They can adapt to full sun.
Soil: A loose, well-drained potting mix. Sandier soil is good for them.
Water: Let the soil dry between watering. During winter, reduce watering to monthly, or whenever the soil is dry to the touch. Err on the side of under-watering.
Temperature: They prefer warmth and will suffer if exposed to temperatures below 50ºF
Fertilizer: Feed a mild cactus fertilizer during the growing season; do not fertilize in the winter.
