About this plant
Snake Plant suits indoor spots with low to bright, indirect light, tolerates some direct sun. Listed by the ASPCA as toxic to dogs and cats, so keep it away from pets.
Works in dim rooms and offices, taking low to bright light and little water, with stiff, upright, banded leaves.
Snake Plant (Sansevieria, now Dracaena trifasciata) has stiff, upright, sword-shaped leaves with banded green patterns. It is listed at 50 cm, 60 cm and 80 cm. It is one of the easiest indoor plants to keep, growing in low to bright light and tolerating a missed watering. Its main enemy is too much water. Let the soil dry out completely between waterings: in Dubai summer that is typically every two weeks, and in winter every three to four weeks or less. Use a pot with drainage holes. Direct sun through glass can mark the leaves, so a bright spot without harsh afternoon sun is best. Wipe the leaves occasionally to remove dust.

Care guide for Dubai homes
How to keep Snake Plant healthy through the Dubai year.
Light
Low to bright, indirect light; tolerates some direct sun. Keep it out of harsh direct afternoon sun in summer.
Watering
Every 2–3 weeks indoors when the soil is fully dry; monthly in winter. Water when the top 2 to 3 cm of soil feels dry, empty the saucer afterwards, and check the soil before you water: AC slows how fast the plant uses water.
Care notes
Soil: Fast-draining cactus or succulent mix. Feeding: Diluted balanced fertilizer every 6–8 weeks from March to September. Common mistake: watering on a fixed weekly schedule, which rots the roots. Where it works: bedrooms, offices, hallways, living rooms and shaded patios.
AC and air flow
Keep it at least 1 metre from AC vents. Cold air blowing straight onto the leaves dries the edges.
Cleaning the leaves
Dust settles quickly in Dubai homes. Wipe the leaves with a damp cloth every few weeks so they keep taking in light.
Feeding and repotting
Feed once a month from March to October. Repot every 2 years into a pot one size up, or book a Plant Doctor visit and we do it for you.
Pets
Listed by the ASPCA as toxic to dogs and cats (not stated for horses on this entry). Toxic principle: saponins; nausea, vomiting, diarrhea. https://www.aspca.org/pet-care/animal-poison-control/toxic-and-non-toxic-plants/snake-plant
