Snake Plant (Sansevieria Black Coral)

The Black Coral Snake Plant (Sansevieria ‘Black Coral’), also known as Mother-in-Law’s Tongue, is a striking and ultra-low-maintenance houseplant known for its tall, upright leaves patterned with gray-green wavy bands against a deep green to nearly black background. In lower light conditions, its foliage appears darker and more dramatic, with newer growth showing the most pronounced markings.

One of the easiest houseplants to care for, the Black Coral Snake Plant thrives on neglect and is ideal for beginners, busy plant parents, offices, and low-light spaces. Its bold, architectural form makes it a standout addition to any room.
