The familiar toughness of a Snake Plant, with an unusual metallic twist. The ‘Coppertone’ is a striking houseplant, loved for its unusual colouring, crinkled leaves and for being very very hardy.

Sansevieria grow thick, rigid leaves from the base of the plant. This particular variety has slightly inward-curved mottled leaves that form a compact, star-shaped crown and burst outward. In good light, their green patterning takes on a beautiful coppery tone, hence the name.

Like other Snake Plants, ‘Coppertone’ doesn’t need much fuss to do well in your home. Let the soil dry out completely between waterings, then water thoroughly, these plants hate being waterlogged. It can tolerate lower light, but a spot with bright, indirect light will bring out its best colour and its fastest growth.

How to care for Sansevieria 'Coppertone'

  • Lighting: Bright, indirect light is best, but can tolerate shadier spots. Avoid direct sun. North, East or West facing light is best.
  • Watering: Water once pot is completely dry, is drought tolerant.
  • Humidity: Can deal with arid conditions but is happy in average household humidity.
  • Temperature: Grows best in temperatures of around 18-28°C, but can tolerate as low as 10°C for short periods.
  • Soil Preference: Something which allows air and water to ass through easily. We recommend the Cacti & Succulent mix. Add some bark to this mix for the perfect balance of properties.
  • Good to Know: Sansevieria produce 'pups' at the base of the main plant which can be separated to start a new plant.
