plant tips

water
Water only when the soil is completely dry — every 2 to 4 weeks is usually enough. This plant stores water in its leaves, so less is always more.

Thrives in medium to bright indirect light but adapts well to lower light conditions. Tolerates more direct sun outdoors than most snake plant varieties.

Houseplant.
mature size
Approx. 24" W × 48" H

care

Place in a warm spot with bright indirect light and water only when the soil is completely dry. Use a well-draining potting mix — a cactus or succulent blend works great. Feed once or twice a year in spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer. Wipe the leaves occasionally with a damp cloth to keep their golden edges looking sharp. Remove any yellowing leaves at the base to keep the plant looking full and fresh year-round.
