🌿 Sansevieria 'Moonshine'

Botanical Name: Dracaena trifasciata 'Moonshine'
Former Name: Sansevieria trifasciata 'Moonshine'
Common Names: Moonshine Snake Plant, Silver Snake Plant, Moonlight Sansevieria
Family: Asparagaceae
Origin: Cultivar of a species native to West Africa

📏 Physical Description

  • Growth Habit:
    A clumping, upright succulent that grows slowly and compactly, forming tight rosettes of sword-like leaves.
    Typically grows 30–60 cm (12–24 inches) tall.

  • Leaves:
    Broad, silvery-green to pale grey-green leaves with a subtle green margin and a slightly powdery, matte finish.
    Leaf color is most vibrant in bright light, and can become darker in lower light.

  • Form:
    Clean, architectural lines make it a standout in modern interiors, minimal spaces, or grouped plant arrangements.

🌱 Care and Cultivation

  • Light:
    Prefers bright, indirect light, but tolerates low light extremely well.
    Color is most silvery and striking in brighter locations.
    Avoid prolonged direct hot sun, which can bleach or burn leaves.

  • Watering:
    Very drought-tolerant. Water sparingly—allow soil to dry completely between waterings.
    Water even less in winter.
    Overwatering is the #1 cause of problems.

  • Soil:
    Needs well-draining soil. A cactus/succulent mix or standard potting soil with added sand or perlite works well.

  • Humidity:
    Thrives in low to average humidity. Perfect for dry indoor environments.

  • Temperature:
    Ideal range is 18–29°C (65–85°F).
    Protect from frost—do not expose below 10°C (50°F).

  • Feeding:
    Feed once every 2–3 months in spring and summer with a diluted cactus fertilizer. Not a heavy feeder.

  • Propagation:
    Easy to propagate via division, leaf cuttings, or rhizome separation.
