Sansevieria is a plant that’s very popular for indoor houseplants. Known as snake plants, mother-in-law’s tongue or bowstring hemp, it is a durable and hardy succulent that is also easy to care for. It’s a good choice for beginners. There are several sansevieria varieties that differ in their color, leaf shape, and growing pattern. They are drought-tolerant and can adapt to varying household conditions. They can be placed in low light areas such as a spot under a north-facing window and do well with varying levels of humidity.
