Meet the bold and beautiful Sansevieria Fernwood — a modern, architectural plant that instantly elevates any space with its sleek, upright spears and deep green tiger-striping. Compact yet striking, this low-maintenance beauty is perfect for desks, shelves, nightstands, and gifting.

✨ Air-Purifying Powerhouse
Fernwood helps filter indoor air by removing toxins and releasing oxygen — even at night — making it an excellent choice for bedrooms and living spaces.

✨ Low Maintenance & Beginner Friendly
One of the easiest houseplants to care for. If you’ve ever worried about having a “black thumb,” this is your plant.

✨ Modern, Sculptural Look
Its slender, cylindrical leaves grow upright in a fan-like cluster, adding height and texture without taking up much space.

🪴 Available Options

• 4" Nursery Planter – A classic grower’s pot, perfect if you have your own decorative planter at home.

• Daphne Ceramic 4.5" Planter – A beautifully finished ceramic option that adds a polished, ready-to-style look and includes a rose gold tray that catches the drips of water.  

☀️ Light Requirements

• Thrives in bright, indirect light

• Tolerates low light conditions

• Can handle some gentle direct sun, but avoid harsh afternoon rays

This adaptability makes it perfect for offices, apartments, and rooms with varying light.

💧 Watering Needs

Less is more!

⚠️ Overwatering is the #1 cause of problems with Sansevieria.

Propagation is slow but rewarding — perfect for expanding your collection or sharing with friends.

🪴 Growth & Care Tips

• Slow to moderate grower

• Repot every 1–2 years when rootbound

• Use well-draining cactus or succulent soil

• Wipe leaves occasionally to remove dust and keep them glossy
