Use and Care Manual

USE & CARE MANUAL: SANSEVIERIA (SNAKE PLANT)

Water - Easy does it with the watering. You want to be careful not to overdo it because your plant will rot out. Always

make sure the soil is almost completely dry before thoroughly watering again. Water your Snake Plants every 2-6 weeks,

depending on your home’s temperature, light levels, and humidity. So, if you travel or tend to ignore plants, this is the 1

for you.

Light - Even though Sansevieria prefer low to medium light, they’ll also tolerate high light. Further proof of how versatile

they are! Just be sure to keep them out of the direct sun because they’ll eventually burn.

Air Circulation - These plants don’t mind the dry or stale air in our homes and offices. They’ll also do well in bathrooms

where the humidity tends to be much higher. This is another versatility factor which gives this houseplant the label:

“diehard”.

Temperature - Sansevieria will tolerate a wide range of temperatures in our homes. I have a few in pots outdoors and

we get very hot in the summer and cool in the winter. Just know they don’t tolerate frost or snow so get them indoors

before the temperatures drop too low.

Pests - Snake Plants are highly pest-resistant but in poor conditions, they can get mealybugs and/or spider mites. If yours

gets either, be sure to treat it with a pesticide from your local Home Depot immediately.
