Sansevieria Trifasciata Golden Hahnii – Birds Nest Snake Plant

Sansevieria Golden Hahnii is a real gem: small in stature maybe, but with its stunning good lucks and a tough, robust nature it stands its ground as a must-have-plant.

Hahnii is a compact variety of Bird’s Nest Snake Plant. Its dark, glossy leaves with broad creamy-yellow margins are funnel shaped and form an elegant rosette of lush succulent foliage. Sansevieria will adapt to different light levels, however the colours are enhanced in bright, filtered conditions.

These are robust, stocky plants. Perfect if you’re looking for a Sansevieria with all their easy-care qualities, but don’t have the space for one of the taller varieties.

Please note: some scarring may occur on the leaves.

Horty Hints

Off on your holibobs? No probs! The Golden Hahnii is drought tolerant and is more than happy being left to its own devices making it the ideal houseplant for the keen traveller.

Make it rain! Once your Golden Hahnii’s soil has dried out and it’s time to water again, make sure to thoroughly drench the soil, allowing any excess water to drain through the bottom.

Living life on the edge! Make sure to water your Golden Hahnii around the edge of its grow pot, avoiding the middle stems as this can cause the plant to rot easily.

Light
