Sansevieria Laurentii – HydroCare

Sansevieria trifasciata Laurentii is probably the most recognisable and popular Sansevieria houseplant with its mottled grey-green leaves and creamy-yellow margins.

The HydroCare version is considered virtually indestructible and an excellent choice for all situations. It’s tall, architectural presence and warm colouring ensure this Sansevieria stands out from the crowd. Often called mother-in-law’s tongue, it might be one for the guest room.

Please note: some scarring may occur on the leaves.

Horty Hints

Bright and beautiful! Pop your variegated Laurentii in a brightly-lit location to encourage that ‘wow’ colour factor.

Squeaky clean! Make sure to wipe the stems of your Laurentii regularly to remove any dust and help maximise its air purifying powers.

Shabby but fabby! Scarring can occur on your Laurentii’s leaves, this is completely normal and adds to its stunning shabby-chic appearance.
