Indoor plants: Sansevieria trifasciata OR Snake Plant



If you are lazy sort of person or don't have enough time to look after your beloved plants and still looking for some nice looking green living things inside your sweet home. Then what to do is to choose those indoor plants those required less attention. I know one of the plant which is attractive, good looking and less demanding ha..ha.. yes I am talking about Sansevieria trifasciata or commonly known Snake Plant.

 

 

Sansevieria trifasciata or Snake Plant


As a good boy snake plant will not bother you if you place him in a low light place and did not give him any water for few days. This indoor plant is good enough to use his resources to stay alive without water and light for quite some time. Sansevieria trifasciata is basically from Africa so he fall in the category of tropical plants who can bear the heat and low light for longer period of time.

It grows quickly so despite of your laziness you still need some efforts to change his pot after dividing in two almost every year. Water in a week is something that Sansevieria trifasciata required to stay alive and healthy so you need to care about it.

 

Snake plant and inner home decor


Snake plant is not a bad choice as far as inner home decoration is concerned. This plant is available in different varieties but most popular is the one with snake type leaves. The leaves of Snake plants are long and stately and make great impact with your inner home decor plan if placed sensibly. I believe that most plant lovers are sensible and good sense of beauty in many cases.
