Garden Goods Direct | Black Gold Snake Plant

Snake Plant Black Gold is a stunning and easy-to-care for houseplant. Loved for its hardy nature and tolerance to a range of conditions, the Sansevieria Trifasciata Black Gold is perfect for the plant parent on the go and those who struggle to keep up with hectic plant care regimes. This unique Snake Plant boasts tall dark green leaves that are edged in an electric bright gold. The plant’s sword shaped foliage and vertical form makes it a piece of living décor that adds height to a space. Black and Gold Snake Plants grow best in bright indirect light conditions, but will also adapt to conditions of partial shade as well as low and fluorescent lighting. Like most all Snake Plants, the Black and Gold plant has succulent leaves that store water. This feature makes the snake plant extremely drought tolerant, only requiring water every three to four weeks. Unlike most houseplants, these warrior plants can also handle cold temperatures. We would recommend planting your indoor plant in a pot with drainage holes to avoid issues of root rot. Additionally, you can apply a well balanced fertilizer in the plant’s growing seasons of spring and summer. When your Snake Plant is provided the proper conditions, it will also produce tiny green flowers. Nicknamed the Mother in Law’s Tongue, Snake Plants are excellent in corners or areas with limited space requirements, as they are nearly vertical with little to no horizontal branches or growth. New plants appear from roots that are sent underground and appear as new sprouts in the same pot as the original. These beloved plants are known for their sharp architectural shape and have the added benefit of cleaning air indoors. Black Gold Snake Plants are known to remove benzene, formaldehyde, trichloroethylene, xylene, and toluene from the air inside homes. It is important to note that these plants are mildly toxic to people and pets to be sure to keep them out of reach.
