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
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.
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.
