3. Snake Plant (Sansevieria trifasciata)
Snake plants, also known as Sansevieria or mother-in-law’s tongue, have become increasingly popular, and those who have one know why. With their stiff, sword-like leaves, these easy-going plants vary in color, but many have green-stripped leaves with a cream or yellow border.
If you have a snake plant, you should know that its thick, rigid leaves can retain a lot of water, and for this very reason, you shouldn’t overwater it; otherwise, its root will rot. The soil should be dry a couple of inches below the surface before watering.
Whether in your garden or indoors, these easy-going plants are easy to grow and can put up with almost everything. So, if you don’t have a snake plant in your house, you should get one!
