8″ Sansevieria Fernwood Mikado

Sansevieria Fernwood is an evergreen, relatively hardy, and perennial succulent snake plant that belongs to the family Asparagaceae.

The fernwood plant has a unique stem with tiger stripes patterns with colors ranging between dark green, light green, yellow, and white. It also has cone-shaped leaves that have an aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Sansevieria Fernwood is a slow-growing plant with cylindrical leaves that almost exclusively grows from spring to summer months.   This is why it would take them up to several years to reach their maximum height. You can, however, speed up the growth of the plant by using artificial light.  These plants prefer medium to bright indirect light but can tolerate lower light levels.

Sansevieria Fernwood tolerates drought, just like cacti. They require little water to survive. The plant is more likely to suffer from over-watering than the lack of it.  Ideally, you only need to water the soil once it’s dry. Avoid pouring the water onto the leaves because they’re susceptible to rot if it sits for long.
