Scientific Name: Sansevieria sayuri

Common Names: Sayuri Snake Plant

Overview: The Sayuri snake plant, also known as Sansevieria ‘Sayuri,’ is a unique and striking cultivar of the popular snake plant. The plant is native to West Africa, and like other snake plants, it is known for its hardiness, easy care, and air-purifying properties.

What sets the Sayuri snake plant apart is its distinctive appearance. Its leaves are a vibrant shade of green, with bold, irregular stripes of creamy white running vertically along their length. This gives the plant a dramatic, almost graphic quality that is both eye-catching and sophisticated.

Like other snake plants, the Sayuri is tolerant of a wide range of conditions, including low light, infrequent watering, and dry air. It is a great choice for beginners or anyone looking for a low-maintenance plant that can thrive in less-than-ideal conditions.

Description

Caring for your Snake Plant

Snake plants, or Sansevieria, are among the most resilient and easy-to-care-for houseplants available. Named for the unique, scale-like pattern on their leaves and the upright growth habit that resembles snakes ready to strike, these plants are incredibly tolerant of a wide range of conditions. They can survive low light levels, drought, and have few pest issues.

Light

First and foremost, lighting is crucial for your snake plant’s health. While snake plants are often touted for their ability to survive in low-light conditions, this doesn’t mean they prefer it. In fact, they thrive in indirect, bright light. Direct sunlight may lead to scorching, so if you have a particularly sunny spot, consider filtering the light or moving your snake plant a little further from the window. However, they will tolerate lower light conditions better than many other houseplants.

Water

Snake plants are succulent-like in their watering needs, meaning they’re adapted to environments where water is scarce. They have thick, waxy leaves which store water, and as such, overwatering can be more detrimental than underwatering. Let the soil dry out completely before watering your plant thoroughly, allowing excess water to drain away. Overwatering can cause root rot, a serious issue that can lead to the death of your plant.

In winter, snake plants enter a dormancy period and need even less water. Cut back your watering schedule during the colder months and only water when the plant’s soil is completely dry.

Temperature

Native to West Africa, snake plants prefer warm conditions and will tolerate dry air. However, they’re hardy enough to withstand cooler temperatures, making them versatile for different indoor conditions. Aim to keep the temperature around your snake plant between 70-90°F (21-32°C).

Humidity

Although snake plants can handle dry environments, they also thrive in more humid conditions. If you live in a particularly dry area, you may want to increase the humidity around your snake plant. This can be done by using a pebble tray filled with water or a room humidifier.

Soil

Snake plants prefer a well-draining soil mix, similar to what you would use for cacti or succulents. A good mix could be one part perlite or sand, one part garden soil, and one part peat. The key is to ensure that the roots are not left in standing water.

Fertilizer

During the growing season (spring and summer), a monthly dose of a balanced houseplant fertilizer can help support growth. However, this is not strictly necessary, and you should avoid fertilizing altogether in winter.

Repotting

Snake plants are slow growers and generally don’t need to be repotted often, perhaps only once every 2-3 years. When the roots begin to coil around the pot’s inside or grow out from the bottom, it’s a sign that the plant needs a larger home.

Choose a pot that’s only slightly larger than the current one—too large a pot can lead to overwatering issues. Always use a pot with a drainage hole, as this will help prevent water from sitting in the bottom and causing root rot.

Propagation

Snake plants are easy to propagate, which is great news if you want to increase your plant collection or share with friends. You can propagate through leaf cuttings or division.

For leaf cuttings, cut a leaf into 2-3 inch sections, let them callous over for a day or two, then plant them cut-side-down in a fresh potting mix. Keep the soil slightly moist until roots form.

  18. Lauren (verified owner) –

    Bought 2 and both were huge, beautiful plants. Very happy with the number and size of plants received and appreciated the photos of exact plants before shipment.

  19. Rebecca (verified owner) –

    It’s unique and I love it.

  20. Nicholas S. (verified owner) –

    It is smaller and less full than what is pictured on site, both in terms of the photo of my specific plant that was shared prior to shipping and the reality of what arrived on my doorstep. I will probably be downsizing it to a smaller planter in a few weeks when it’s had a chance to recover from the trip. The planter it was shipped in is half-full at best.

    One of the largest leaves has a broken tip, and another got crinkled in transit. But the coloration is bright, and while small it was definitely a happy, healthy plant going into the box. 😊

  21. Anonymous (verified owner) –

    Beautiful plant. One structure with two leaves came broken. They were shorter leaves, so it couldn’t have been from shipping because they were below exposure level. It had to have already been like that or was damaged during packaging. Also a lot smaller than expected for the price and what was shown previously shipped, so I docked a star for the broken leaves and size, but still a beautiful plant.

  22. Joe Hayes (verified owner) –

    Plant came in great condition
    and worth bragging on…thanks !!

  23. Berlinda D. (verified owner) –

    It’s good but some of the leaves have brown already.

  24. Raquel (verified owner) –

    This is a large and lovely plant and the air in my home is noticeably fresher since it arrived! Hehe. I love so much that pictures of the plants are sent before shipping. I ordered 3 types of sansevieria and they all shipped together in a large box. It was a bit roomy height-wise so since this was the tallest plant, the leaves got a bit beat up, but shipping was very quick. The plants were wrapped with paper and each had a bamboo pole to protect the leaves. There was paper and a bag to protect the soil during shipping. It’s really nice to see recyclable materials used to package the plants. Thanks so much. ^__^

  25. BRYNN R. (verified owner) –

    Huge plant, could make atleast three smaller pots with this. Super pretty and just like the picture! 🙂

  26. rachel (verified owner) –

    My snake plant came healthy and the packaging was secure. I love plant vine now and I don’t think I will use any other online source for plant purchases moving forward. They truly care about the wellbeing of their plants and take good care of their customers as well!

  29. Karissa (verified owner) –

    This is the biggest snake plant I have seen in person and I can’t believe it’s actually mine! It’s a beautiful, full plant and has a soft coloration. It arrived carefully packed and in great condition.

  30. Lornamarie (verified owner) –

    The best nursery where I’ve ordered a plant. It was packed really well and the plant is beautiful as promised. I love it. I referred you already to my friends and family. I will definitely buy again. Thank you.

I have one small snake plant and wanted another large snake plant for a shady corner in my living room. I wanted the moonlight sansevieria, but you guys didn’t have one, but I liked this one because it is different from the other snake plants. The stripes are lateral instead of horizontal. I like snake plants because they mainly stand tall and straight and the pots almost always look full.
