🌿 Upright marbled green leaves with golden yellow edges • ☀️ Bright to medium light • 💧 Water every 2-3 weeks • 🏙️ 3 sizes available

The Sansevieria trifasciata 'Laurentii', also called mother-in-law's tongue or snake plant, is an iconic tropical succulent native to the tropical regions of Africa. Its upright, rigid marbled green leaves are highlighted by clear, continuous golden yellow edges — a classic and timeless visual signature that makes it one of the most recognizable houseplants worldwide.

Drought-tolerant, low light tolerant, and able to withstand the dry air of heated apartments, it thrives in conditions where most tropical plants fail — an exceptional robustness that makes it the most accessible graphic plant for low-maintenance interiors.

Which Sansevieria variety to choose?

The Sansevieria genus offers a great diversity of shapes and colors — here are the most distinctive profiles in the catalog:

  • Sansevieria 'Laurentii' (this plant) — marbled green leaves with golden yellow edges, classic form 40-70 cm. The most iconic and well-known in the range.
  • Sansevieria zeylanica — dark green leaves with very pronounced silver marbled patterns, 55 cm. The choice for a more contrasted silver marbled effect.
  • Sansevieria 'Moonshine' — very light green, almost silver leaves, 40 cm. The choice for a very bright and almost metallic palette.
  • Sansevieria 'Black Coral' — very dark green, almost black leaves, 35 cm. The choice for a dramatic and very contemporary palette.
  • Sansevieria 'Dragon' — dark green leaves with very pronounced silver veins, sculptural form 55 cm. The choice for the most spectacular texture in the family.
  • Sansevieria 'Whitney' — dark green leaves edged with silver, compact size 27 cm. The choice for a very compact and very graphic format.
  • Sansevieria Spearmint — green and white variegated leaves, 55 cm. The choice for a very light and bright palette.
  • Sansevieria Fernwood Punk — cylindrical leaves in a compact fan, 35 cm. The choice for a very original cylindrical silhouette.
  • Sansevieria Mikado — very slender cylindrical leaves, structured form. The choice for a very vertical cylindrical silhouette.

Exposure & placement

The Sansevieria 'Laurentii' is one of the most adaptable indoor plants — it maintains its shape and golden edges equally well in bright light or low light, among the few graphic plants suited for low-light spaces.

  • Light: bright to partial shade — also tolerates low light, although the golden edges are more intense in strong light.
  • Locations: living room, entryway, bedroom, office — anywhere, including less sunny rooms.
  • Temperature: 18 to 30 °C — tolerates cooler rooms better than most tropical plants.
  • Avoid: cold drafts and standing water — its only real weaknesses.

In bright indirect light, the golden yellow edges intensify and the contrast with the marbled green is more pronounced — if the edges gradually fade, move the plant to a brighter spot.

Watering & care

The Sansevieria 'Laurentii' is a succulent — its thick leaves store water and allow it to go through long periods without watering. As with all indoor succulent plants, the soil must be completely dry before watering again.

  • Frequency: every 2 to 3 weeks in spring and summer — wait until the substrate is completely dry.
  • In winter: every 3 to 4 weeks, or less — the plant enters dormancy.
  • Drainage: essential — pot with drainage holes filled with cactus substrate, never let water stagnate in the decorative pot.
  • Cleaning: wipe the leaves with a soft cloth to maintain the shine of the golden edges.

Overwatering is the only real threat to the Sansevieria 'Laurentii' — when in doubt about watering frequency, always wait an extra week. You will never damage it by underwatering.

Decor ideas & plant pairings

The graphic verticality and golden edges of the Sansevieria 'Laurentii' make it a very effective structural plant — its upright and rigid leaves naturally contrast with rounder, softer foliage in any contemporary composition.

  • For a very graphic sculptural trio, pair the Sansevieria 'Laurentii' with an Euphorbia acrurensis and an Aloe vera — the upright golden leaves of the Sansevieria, the vertical ribbed stems of the Euphorbia, and the fleshy rosette of the Aloe create three very distinct silhouettes in a desert-style composition fully resistant to watering neglect.
  • For a very sophisticated contrast of textures and colors, pair it with a Zamioculcas and a Ficus elastica 'Abidjan' — the upright golden leaves of the Sansevieria, the shiny oval leaves of the Zamioculcas, and the large almost black leaves of the Ficus create three very complementary shades of green in a composition perfectly suited for low-light apartments.
  • In a trio of different heights, the 3 sizes of the Sansevieria 'Laurentii' (40, 55, and 70 cm) allow you to create a very architectural totem composition — the height gradation effect in matching decorative pots is immediately very decorative in an entryway or hallway.
  • In a raw concrete or matte black ceramic decorative pot, the dark, textured tones highlight the golden yellow edges by contrast — choose a matte dark ceramic decorative pot for a very contemporary and very graphic look.

Verdeia tips

  • Always wait until the substrate is completely dry before watering: this is the most important rule with Sansevieria — watering when the substrate is still moist causes silent root rot that destroys the plant from the inside before the leaves show visible signs.
  • Turn the pot every two months for balanced growth: Sansevieria 'Laurentii' grows slowly but orients its leaves toward the light — regular rotation maintains a symmetrical shape and evenly exposes the golden edges on all sides.
  • Repot every 2 to 3 years in spring in a cactus substrate: Sansevieria prefers a slightly snug pot — wait until roots come out of the bottom before repotting, following the steps in the succulent plant repotting guide.

good for dry skin
This lotion feels lightweight and absorbs well. My skin feels more comfortable after applying it. I also like that it doesn’t have a fragrance.

The perfect glow
Size: 3.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is beautiful and feels amazing on the skin. The shimmer is the perfect amount. You do not need to be rich in melanin to use this product. I am very fair skin and this looks amazing on my skin color as well. It's very hydrating and absorbs pretty good. I do not like oily feeling, was scared this would feel oily and it was not. I loved it. The smell is great and not overpowering which was a huge plus for me. I love applying this on my legs when wearing shorts, dresses or skirts.

LOVE it!
Size: 3.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I started using this Vaseline Illuminate Me Shimmering Body Oil a few days ago and I immediately fell in love with it. I'm definitely going to stock up because I never want to be without this wonderful product. A subscription is a must! After I do my daily shower routine, I top it off with this shimmering oil, and the last thing I do is put a little on my cheeks and forehead...instant glow! I have pale white skin that tends to be on the dry side. It's very hard to find products that will moisturizer my skin and give it a shimmering glow, especially my face. Well, this stuff is a miracle in a bottle - the moisture it puts into my skin, and the pretty shimmer it leaves behind is amazing. Even though it's only been a few days, the results haven't gone unnoticed by friends and family, especially my husband. But, most importantly, I see a difference in my skin and it makes me happy. The scent of this oil is VERY light, almost nonexistent. Plus, the oil consistency is not super thick, which allows it to absorb quickly. A little goes a long way, making it a great buy and worth every penny. Dry skin? Dull skin? Like a little sparkle? I'm telling you, you will love this stuff! Highy recommend.

Good oil, fun sparkles!
Size: 3.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I finally finished the bottle I purchased and I think it's really quite good. Apply after the shower. Helps with winter dry skin and the sparkles are fun. The scent is pleasant but not excessively strong, which is a plus imo. It's a thin oil which is good - it doesn't feel too occlusive. Might repurchase after using up other products I have; I think this would be a better summer buy considering the sparkles aren't visible in the winter when I'm suited up in long sleeves and pants all day.

Give nice glow, looks good for fair skin tone
Size: 3.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have fair skin and was a little unsure about trying something made with melanin-rich skin in mind, but this body oil surprised me in the best way. I wanted something that would give my skin a nice, healthy glow without looking over-the-top or glittery, and this does exactly that. The shimmer is subtle and refined—it catches the light just enough to make my skin look radiant, especially in the sun, but never looks too much. The texture is smooth and lightweight, not sticky or greasy, which is a huge plus for me. It absorbs nicely and doesn’t sit on top of the skin like some other oils I’ve tried. It also smells really lovely—just a soft, warm scent that fades gently and doesn’t overpower anything else I might wear. I appreciate that it doesn’t cling to clothes or leave any stains; I’ve worn white linen after putting it on and had no issues. I've been reaching for it constantly this summer, especially when I wear shorts or dresses—it gives that polished look without much effort
