About this plant
Snake Plant Aqua suits indoor spots with low to bright, indirect light, tolerates some direct sun. Listed by the ASPCA as toxic to cats and dogs, so keep it away from pets.
Fits a desk or shelf, growing in low to bright, indirect light on little water, with broad, smooth blue-green leaves.
Dracaena trifasciata 'Aqua' is a compact snake plant cultivar with wide, smooth leaves in a soft, cool blue-green tone, with faint banding. The leaves grow upright in a tidy rosette, giving a cleaner, more modern look than the classic striped snake plant. Like all snake plants, it stores water in its leaves and rhizomes.
It is one of the easiest plants for Dubai. It tolerates low light, AC-dried air and missed waterings, and grows faster in bright, indirect light. It can also take some direct sun once used to it. Overwatering is the main cause of failure, as soggy soil rots the roots and base.
It works well on desks, shelves, bedside tables, office counters and in bathrooms. We offer it in a 25 cm size, with a choice of black, round black, white or orange pots.

Care guide for Dubai homes
How to keep Snake Plant Aqua 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: desks, shelves, bedside tables, office counters and bathrooms.
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 cats and dogs (saponins, under its Snake Plant entry; can cause nausea, vomiting and diarrhea).
