2 Dwarf Sansevieria Mother in Laws Snake Plant

First to recommend

Description

I've recommended this type of plant before, but thought it made sense to do so again. Sansevierias, commonly known as Snake Plants or Mother-in-Law's Tongue are amazing plants and almost impossible to kill. They were profiled in a NASA study for their hardcore air-cleaning abilities. These plants thrive in bright to dimly lit spaces, and only need to be watered when the soil is dry. They can take some serious neglect! (via amazon.com)
