Sansevieria 'Hahnii' (Serpent Plant) Details

Sansevieria trifasciata ‘Hahnii’, commonly known as the Dwarf Snake Plant, Serpent Plant, or the Mother in Law Tongue Plant, and is a very popular indoor plant. It features upright and fleshy leaves that are striped with green and silver bands. The spear shaped leaves arise from the base of this clump growing plant. Small and fragrant, green flowers may be produced in spring but these are rarely seen on plants grown indoors. It grows slowly to eventually reach about 30 cm tall and 20 cm wide. This succulent prefers to grow in full sun on a well-drained media. It will tolerate extended dry periods, some shade, fluctuating temperatures, and coastal environments but it will not tolerate constant over-watering. The Dwarf Snake Plan makes for a fabulous indoor plant and is well suited to providing colour and texture to offices where it can be placed on a shelf or desk without being an intrusion. Sansevieria trifasciata ‘Hahnii’ can be grown outdoors in warmer climates and suits Mediterranean themed gardens.
