The Mikado snake plant (Sansevieria trifasciata ‘Mikado’) is a striking succulent belonging to the Asparagaceae family. Its distinctive emerald green leaves adorned with crisp white stripes have earned it common names like “striped snake plant” and “ribbon plant.” Typically reaching a height of 1-2 feet, it thrives in bright indirect light, well-draining soil, and moderate watering. Propagation via stem cuttings or air layering is straightforward. While mildly toxic to pets and humans if ingested, this air-purifying plant adds a touch of elegance to indoor spaces and enhances air quality. Related members of the snake plant genus include ‘Moonshine’ and ‘Tricolor.’
