Snake Plant

The Snake Plant, or sansevieria, is one of the easiest and most forgiving house plants around! This hardy plant, sometimes referred to as a mother-in-law's tongue, almost thrives on neglect. Choose a snake plant when you need a plant for that low light spot of your home, or when you tend to be forgetful when it comes to watering. These plants are teriffic at purifying the air, too!
