About this plant

If you're new to houseplants or away a lot, start here. Snake plants store water in their leaves, so they're far more likely to suffer from too much attention than too little.

They grow faster and keep their yellow edges brightest in good light, but they'll hold their own in a hallway or a north-facing room.

Care tips

  • Let the compost dry out completely between waterings.
  • Use a gritty, free-draining mix if you repot.
  • Keep it away from radiators that would bake the roots.
