USE & CARE MANUAL: SANSEVIERIA (SNAKE PLANT)
Water - Easy does it with the watering. You want to be careful not to overdo it because your plant will rot out. Always
make sure the soil is almost completely dry before thoroughly watering again. Water your Snake Plants every 2-6 weeks,
depending on your home’s temperature, light levels, and humidity. So, if you travel or tend to ignore plants, this is the 1
for you.
Light - Even though Sansevieria prefer low to medium light, they’ll also tolerate high light. Further proof of how versatile
they are! Just be sure to keep them out of the direct sun because they’ll eventually burn.
Air Circulation - These plants don’t mind the dry or stale air in our homes and offices. They’ll also do well in bathrooms
where the humidity tends to be much higher. This is another versatility factor which gives this houseplant the label:
“diehard”.
Temperature - Sansevieria will tolerate a wide range of temperatures in our homes. I have a few in pots outdoors and
we get very hot in the summer and cool in the winter. Just know they don’t tolerate frost or snow so get them indoors
before the temperatures drop too low.
Pests - Snake Plants are highly pest-resistant but in poor conditions, they can get mealybugs and/or spider mites. If yours
gets either, be sure to treat it with a pesticide from your local Home Depot immediately.
