Sansevieria ‘Silver Flame’ is a striking and exceptionally easy-care houseplant with upright deep green leaves edged and marbled with silvery-green variegation. Its architectural form and elegant colouring make it a stylish addition to any home or office.
Part of the Sansevieria family, now classified botanically as Dracaena, this resilient plant is prized for its ability to thrive in a wide range of conditions. Commonly known as a Snake Plant or Mother-in-Law's Tongue, it is one of the most forgiving houseplants available, making it ideal for beginners, busy households and low-maintenance plant collections.
Sansevieria ‘Silver Flame’ tolerates everything from bright indirect light to lower light positions, although growth will be strongest in brighter locations. Its thick, succulent-like leaves store water, allowing it to cope well with occasional neglect and making overwatering the most common cause of problems.
Plant Care:
• Position: Bright indirect light to lower light conditions
• Watering: Allow compost to dry completely between waterings
• Humidity: No special humidity requirements
• Feeding: Apply a balanced houseplant feed during spring and summer
• Ideal for beginners and low-maintenance homes
Plant Details:
• Nursery Pot Size: 12cm
• Approximate Height: 35cm
• Fits Decorative Pot Size: 14cm

Light
Thrives in bright, indirect light but is one of the few houseplants that will also tolerate lower light levels. A little direct sun is beneficial, but avoid prolonged scorching summer sun.
Water
Water thoroughly, then allow the compost to dry out completely before watering again. Water less during winter, allowing the compost to remain dry for longer.

Thrives in normal household humidity and does not require misting.
