Last year I bought two varieties of Sansevieria trifasciata plants and propagated them. My daughter brought one pot of a variety and put it in her college dorm. I gave one pot of another variety as a present to someone, and two pots of two varieties grow well at home.
At my father's flower shop years ago, he had some pots of this plant but they weren't popular as like as this time, when people found out that these plants are good as a natural air purifier because in the night, it still produces oxygen. Sansevieria plants do not need to much care. They are easy to grow. We can water them once per week. This species can grow many years in a pot and it looks nice as one of indoor plants.
The picture above shows a pot of this plant sitting at the corner of our dinning room and the picture below shows this plant was arranged as a present. I propagated them from one single plant last year, so they are special.
