Snake Plant
Sansevieria laurentii
One of the most popular and hardy of houseplants, he's virtually indestructible and adaptable to almost any condition. Whether you throw full, direct sunlight at him or shove him in the low-light corner of your apartment, he'll grow. And to top it off, he'll go weeks without water if he must.
Good in all types of light.
Once every 2-3 weeks and likes to dry out completely.
Toxic to pets. Sorry Spike.
Small: ~12" tall and a 4" pot. Medium: ~14" tall and a 6" pot. Large: ~3' tall and a 10" pot.
Month-long meditation trip? Count this one in.
Pro-tip: His roots may rot if you shower him with too much love. Make sure his soil is dry before watering again.
