Plant Care Tips: 

  Watering:

 Sansevieria need to be watered thoroughly and deeply each time.  But then left alone until soil dries out completely before the next watering occurs.  They store excess water in the leaves so although they may look dried out they may still have stored up reserves to feed off of. 

 Lighting:

 Requires bright light to full sun exposure to really take off and grow!  Snake plants can all survive in low light but they will only be surviving, not thriving.

  Temperature:

  These guys want a ton of sunshine and the heat that comes with it!  They can handle a basic room temperature if they have no other options but try not to place in any area that gets lower than 50 degrees Fahrenheit.   

  Soil Medium: 

Snake plants are succulents and thrive in tropical or subtropical regions.  The hardiness of the plant allows them to utilize pretty much any well draining soil mix.  A little fertilization at the start of growing season will give it a "jump start" but be careful as overfertilization can kill it. 

 Sansevieria are pretty susceptible to weevils and mealy bugs but if caught early they can be combated.
