The Sanseveria is an interesting plant. Native to Africa, it enjoys strong (but not direct) sunlight, the leaves are green in colour and the plant in general looks like a hybrid cactus/aloe.

This plant fits into just about any interior space but those with modern or minimalistic interiors should take notice of this plant. It’s shape is like an open fan. The simple geometric shape of the Sanseveria is perfect for modern interiors and allows the plant to be displayed on it’s own, as a sculpture if you will.

Caring for this plant shouldn’t prove difficult. Water once a month, twice during the growth season. It’s quite hardy and you’ll get away with re-planting it every 3-4 years… a very low maintenance plant.

I’m still looking for a good picture…
