The snake plant is forgiving and resistant, but in exchange for cleaning and filtering of air in the room, it definitely deserves comfortable conditions. It feels excellent at a bright place with disperse light or in a partial shade. The summer temperature should not exceed 24°C, and 15°C in the winter. The snake plant should be watered once a week in the summer and once every three weeks in the winter. Sprinkling and use of leaf gloss should be replaced with light cleaning using a cloth, acting on the plant as a relaxing SPA treatment. Sansevieria trifasciata is an extremely forgiving plant - it will forgive us dry air, forgotten watering, excessive shade or even too small a pot. There is, however, one thing it clearly does not like - excess water. If we want to keep it happy, we should avoid excess water, especially that it may cause in rotting of the leaf bases.
