Sansevieria Hahnii Jade

Jade Snake Plant is a dwarf variety that is exceptionally slow growing and perfect for small spaces in an apartment or office. Snake Plants have many other common names: viper’s hemp string, mother-in-law tongue, or Jade Bird’s Nest. Still, they are all scientifically named Dracaena trifasciata, formerly known as Sansevieria trifasciata. All varieties of Snake Plant originated in the tropical climates of West Africa and require minimal maintenance.

Light: Any light level will suit this easy-to-grow plant. Low light will keep the plant growing slowly. Brighter light will speed growth, while bright direct light will bleach or burn the leaves.

Watering: Snake Plants are famous for how they can tolerate drought conditions. This is one reason the Jade Snake plant is suitable for a first-time houseplant gardener. Let the top 2-3 inches of soil dry thoroughly between waterings. Let the excess water drain fully and empty the saucer or cache pot, so the container does not sit in water. Watering every 1-2 weeks is typical, depending on the humidity level in your home or office.
