Black coral snake plant isn’t just a tough houseplant. Where it grew up originally, sansevieria trifasciata was valued for their sturdy, durable features, its fibers allegedly used as strong bowstring material. Even when it travelled across other continents, it was likened to spears and swords, touted a symbol of protection from negative spirits and bad luck. Now, it's best known for purifying air, but it still holds its historical significance.
Care Guide
How to Grow and Care for Black Coral Sansevieria, Dracaena trifasciata ‘Black coral’?
Though the black coral sansevieria is darker than more common snake plants like the laurentii, it has the same care requirements. It can take low light, low nutrients, and low watering—in fact, it can be fatal to overwater (though you can cut the living part or the plant and regrow it if things go south). Snake plants enjoy warmer environments, and do just swell in homes, which explains why they’re such popular houseplants.
