Variegated Shark Fin Snake Plant - Sansevieria

Description Light/Soil/Water Hardiness The Variegated Shark Fin Snake Plant (Dracaena masoniana 'Variegata', formerly Sansevieria masoniana 'Variegata') is a rare semi-succulent perennial plant. It is instantly recognizable by its single, broad, paddle-shaped leaves, which are said to resemble the dorsal fin of a shark or the fin of a whale. Its most significant feature is the single, giant, paddle-shaped leaf that can grow up to 3-4 feet tall and 8-10 inches wide, giving it a unique, modern, and sculptural look. The irregular, marbled pattern of deep green, light green, and creamy yellow stripes is exceptionally decorative and makes each leaf one-of-a-kind. Bright, indirect light is ideal for the best variegation and growth, but it is highly tolerant of lower light conditions. Requires a well-draining potting mix. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering is the most common cause of root rot. Water less frequently in the winter months.
