HOUSEPLANT LADY VIGNETTES, SNAKE PLANTS!




My new project is to set up a snake plant vignette in my living room. I saw varieties of tall snake plants at a Farmer's Market Greenhouse. I suddenly got a great idea! Display snake plants in a group on a table.  This would be better than my grandma's  snake plant in a old dented rusty tub.


SNAKE PLANT BIO:

Sansevieria trifasciata, also called snake plant, mother-in-law's tongue or Saint George's sword is a species of flowering plant in the family Asparagaceae, native
to tropical West Africa from Nigeria
east to the Congo. (SOURCE: Wikipedia)
    
PLANT CARE: 


Carefree, tolerates low light, grows
better in medium or bright light. Let
soil dry between waterings.

Clean Air Plant: Improves air quality 

in the home!
