Sansevieria ‘Futura Superba’ is a compact and slightly softer take on the classic snake plant, with wide, upright leaves edged in gold and streaked with deep green. It’s strong, sculptural, and brings a golden glow to a corner (without asking for much in return).

Native to West Africa, this plant is famously low maintenance. It prefers bright, indirect light but will tolerate low light with ease. Let the soil dry out completely between waterings, it stores water in its thick leaves, so overwatering is its only real enemy.

Snake plants are a fantastic choice for beginners, offices, bedrooms… basically anywhere. They also help purify the air, and stay nice and tidy with a naturally compact shape. If you want something elegant and effortless, this one’s a winner.
