Botanical name: Sansevieria cylindrica ‘Fernwood’
Also known as: Fernwood Snake Plant

Sansevieria ‘Fernwood’ is a modern favorite for its sleek, upright form and minimal care needs. Its narrow, cylindrical leaves feature subtle striping in shades of green and gray, giving it a sculptural quality. Native to West Africa, this drought-tolerant plant thrives on neglect and purifies indoor air while making a bold statement in compact spaces.

☀️ Light: Extremely adaptable. Thrives in bright indirect light but tolerates low-light and artificial lighting well.

💧 Water: Allow soil to dry completely between waterings. Water sparingly—this plant stores moisture in its thick leaves.

🌫️ Humidity: Tolerates average indoor humidity. No extra humidity required.

📏 Size: Grows up to 1–2 feet tall and maintains a compact shape.

🐾 Pet-friendly?: ❌ Not pet-friendly (toxic if ingested).

🪴 Where It Looks Best: Desktops, modern shelves, nightstands, and minimalist interiors.

💡 Pro Tip: Avoid overwatering and choose a loose, well-draining cactus or succulent mix. Repot only when root-bound.
