The Snake Plant is just the ideal plant for those plant lovers, wanting to remove toxins from the air.

Sansevieria (Snake Plant)

Looking for a stylish plant gift or a low-maintenance indoor plant to brighten your home? The stunning Sansevieria, also known as the Snake Plant or Mother-in-Law’s Tongue, is the perfect choice. Native to Africa and Madagascar, this hardy houseplant thrives in warm conditions and loves bright, indirect light. But don’t worry if your home is a little darker – it’s one of the most tolerant plants around, coping happily with partial shade and occasional neglect. This makes it ideal for new plant parents or busy people who want all the benefits of greenery without the hassle.

With its striking, upright sword-like leaves, this gorgeous air-purifying plant adds a bold architectural feel to your space. The deep green foliage, sometimes patterned with silvery markings, brings an instant pop of colour and texture to any room. Occasionally, the Snake Plant rewards you with delicate white flowers on a single spike - a rare but delightful surprise!

According to Feng Shui, the Snake Plant is believed to bring good luck and help cut through negative energy, making it not only a beautiful décor piece but also a symbol of positive vibes. Plus, it’s a hero when it comes to improving air quality. As a natural air purifier, it works hard even at night, removing toxins and converting CO2 into oxygen - perfect for placing in the bedroom for a healthier, fresher environment.

The Perfect Plant Gift

The Snake Plant makes a fantastic plant gift for any occasion – whether it’s a birthday, housewarming, or even a stylish office gift. Its striking design suits modern interiors, while its hardy nature means it will thrive with minimal care – a thoughtful and long-lasting alternative to traditional flowers. Beautifully presented in our signature ceramics, it’s a gift that’s guaranteed to impress plant lovers and beginners alike.

Dimensions:

  • Medium: Total height approximately 35cm

  • Large: Total height approximately 75cm

For more tips and inspiration:

Please note: Each Snake Plant is unique, with its own leaf patterns and natural imperfections such as markings, splits, or tip discolouration - all part of its rugged charm.

Care

Don’t be over generous with your watering. Give your Sansevieria approx. 300 ml of water every few weeks. You can let the soil become dry to the touch between watering. Feed with a generic houseplant feed every couple of months. Is happiest in a bright area of full sun but will tolerate partial light conditions indoors.

Read our plant care guide, to help keep your Sansevieria looking fresh.

  • I wasn’t sure that I’d love old Snakey but how wrong I was! It has incredibly beautiful mackerel markings that range from green to yellow and sits in the corner exuding quiet wisdom. I’m in awe.

  • Gorgeous plant and easy to care for, only given 4* as it arrived with quite a bit of scarring to the leaves.

  • I am delighted with my Sansevieria (Snakey). It arrived this morning. It’s a very healthy gorgeous looking plant and was well packaged with a lovely pot. My other succulents love their new friend and I cannot wait for many many more.

  • A bit disappointed this time, with my plant it had a lot of earth at the bottom of the box and when removing the plant I saw it was leaning to one side. I'm putting it on the window ledge to try and straighten it. All plants my son and I have received before where perfect.

  • Love my little snakey - he sits beautifully on my home-office desk. We've renamed him Sharkey as my partner doesn't like snakes! He was well packaged when delivered and arrived in perfect condition, with clear instructions of how to look after him, and is still alive a month later -which is a big win as I am rubbish with plants normally. I have since recommend Little Botanicla to friends and have used it to be a gift for a friend too. I couldn't be happier with my little Sharkey!

  • I'm not a green fingered person at all but decided recently to branch out from succulents to green house plants. TLB give such straight forward care instructions, and have many easy to look after plants which is just what I needed. I am loving the addition of Snakey to our bedroom - a beautiful plant which brings me joy and I'm managing to keep alive with a bit of watering every couple of weeks.

  • Very striking plant. The one in the first picture is a Zeylanica and in the other picture the snake plant with the yellow edges is a Laurentii. These are the plants you could receive. They are both great plants. I received the Laurentii and it was in a very healthy condition with no damage or browning to the tips. The plant was very well packaged. Would definitely recommend, great for beginners.
