aka Sansevieria Trifasciata Mikado
Height: 40cm
Nursery Pot: 12cm
Pot in picture: Ebbi Sand 14cm
(sold separately)
Light: Like her cousin, the Snake Plant, the Mikado is made of tough stuff. She’s very versatile and almost bullet-proof which makes her a perfect houseplant for new plant parents. She’s not overly fussy where she lives as long as she gets some indirect sunlight.
Water: Less is definitely more with this one in terms of water. In the wild, you can find her growing in Africa in very dry conditions. Allow her soil to dry thoroughly before watering.
Height: Slow, upward growth with stiff leaves; she can grow to 1m high. If you want to be very nice, feed him once in spring and once more in summer with organic plant food.
Top tip: As like many houseplants, her leaves can be toxic to cats and dogs so maybe best to avoid if your fur babies are plant chompers.
