Sansevieria Laurentii Care Guide & Presentation

Variegated Sansevieria Laurentii (Snake Plant)

Sansevieria Laurentii: Overview

The Variegated Sansevieria Laurentii (Sansevieria trifasciata ‘Laurentii’) is a snake plant variety with variegated, sword-like leaves edged with stripes of yellow. Sansevieria Laurentii is part of the Asparagaceae family. Having formerly been grouped into a separate genus (Sansevieria), snake plants have recently been reclassified as Dracaena plants due to the numerous molecular similarities discovered. Variegated Sansevieria is native to West Africa, and it’s a highly adaptable and low-maintenance plant. It thrives as an indoor plant or outdoors in hardiness zones 9-11 as long as the night temperatures stay above 45°F.

When mature, this tropical plant can reach up to 4 ft. in height. Quickly adapting to various light conditions, the Dracaena trifasciata ‘Laurentii’ is considered an ideal low-light plant. It is suitable for homes without pets, as it is toxic to pets if ingested.

In Feng Shui, the Variegated Snake Plant is believed to bring good luck and protection, often placed by the entrance to welcome positive energies into a home or given as a housewarming gift.

Sansevierias are hardy and beautiful succulents that will enchant plant lovers, whether they prefer compact plants like Sansevieria Samurai or rarer varieties like the ethereal Sansevieria Moonshine or the slim-leaved Sansevieria Fernwood.

Laurentii Snake Plant: Care Guide

Sansevieria Laurentii care is so easy that the plant is sometimes described as indestructible. Still, we’ve included some tips on how to care for your snake plant.

Watering and Humidity

Sansevieria Trifasciata Laurentii doesn’t require a lot of water, but it’s necessary to let the soil dry between waterings. Depending on the climate, water your snake plant once a week or every 10 days. While it tolerates humidity, the plant prefers drier air.

Light and Temperature

Snake plants’ light requirements are easy to meet, as they can tolerate various conditions. They prefer medium light but adapt easily to low-light conditions and even artificial light. Dracaena Trifasciata can also grow in bright light as long as there is no direct sunlight to scorch its leaves. Snake plants prefer warmer temperatures that range from 55 to 85for best growth.

Soil and Repotting

Use a cacti and succulent potting mix when repotting your Snake Plant Laurentii. The soil needs to be well-draining to ensure protection from root rot. You don’t have to repot immediately when you receive your plant. Wait until it gets slightly rootbound. Then repot during springtime into a 2-inch larger pot.

Feeding and Propagation

Snake plants don’t need a lot of feeding, and it’s best to fertilize only twice a year, during spring and late summer. Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. Sansevierias are very easy to propagate via cut leaves. Cut off a healthy leaf and put it into a tall, stable container filled with several inches of water. Change the water regularly until the roots begin to form.

Pruning, Cleaning, and Common Issues

Prune any damaged or dead leaves. Cut off any brown leaf tips to keep your Laurentii Snake plant looking neat. Wipe the leaves with a damp cloth occasionally to remove dust.

Snake plant issues include drooping yellow leaves - a sure sign of overwatering. Crisp, brown tips and spots on the leaves may mean underwatering. Move your plant away from direct sunlight, which might burn its leaves.
