Snake Plant 'Zeylanica' – Hardy Elegance with Striking Silver-Green Stripes The Snake Plant 'Zeylanica' (Sansevieria zeylanica) is a timeless, easy-care houseplant known for its upright sword-shaped leaves with rippling patterns of silvery green and dark green striping. Unlike its more variegated cousins, 'Zeylanica' has a wilder, more natural aesthetic, making it a beautiful choice for earthy interiors, bedrooms, and low-light spaces. Beloved for its air-purifying qualities and unmatched resilience, it’s the ultimate “set-it-and-forget-it” plant.
It tolerates low-light environments, but richer light encourages more defined striping. Use a fast-draining soil mix—like a cactus or succulent blend—and always allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Fertilize once or twice per growing season with a diluted succulent fertilizer.
Zeylanica is adaptable to most household conditions, including lower humidity and inconsistent watering. Just avoid cold drafts and soggy soil to keep it thriving. Why Garden Wrld?
