SOIL REQUIREMENT

• Snake plants do best with a free-draining soil mix, because they are easily prone to rot.
• A soilless potting mixture is best to ensure adequate drainage.
• Also be sure to use a terracotta pot that won’t trap water inside and promptly remove any standing water from the saucer.

FEEDING/FERTILIZER REQUIREMENT

• Use a houseplant or succulent fertilizer during the growing season (spring & summer), but not in winter.

LIGHT REQUIREMENT

• Great for about any room in your home.
• Snake plants grow best in High or Medium light conditions, but can also tolerate Low light (though they will grow best with more light).

WATER REQUIREMENT

• Low water needs.
• They should be allowed to dry out between watering.
• Water these plants when the soil is dry.
• In summer this can be weekly or every other week, in winter water monthly or less often.
• As succulents, Sansevieria can survive drought, but they must have soil and pots that drain well.
• Sitting in water will cause them to rot.
