About This Botanical
Gold-striped, upright leaves make this a brighter take on the classic snake plant. It is one of the easiest plants to keep, tolerating low light and an occasional forgotten watering, and it stands tall in a corner or beside a sofa.
Quick care
- Light: bright to low light. Brighter light keeps the gold colouring stronger.
- Water: only when the soil is fully dry, roughly every two to three weeks.
