Scientific Name: Dracaena trifasciata 'Whitney'
Synonyms: Mother-in-Law's Tongue Whitney, Snake Plant Whitney, Whitney Sansevieria, Whitney Snake Plant
- Compact, architectural growth habit
- Beautiful variegated foliage with some creamy yellow margins
- Extremely low maintenance
- Waterwise for the Win!
- Plant Level: Beginner
The Mother-in-Law's Tongue 'Whitney' is proof that good things come in small packages. This compact variety features broad, sturdy leaves with deep green centres and striking creamy-yellow variegation along the edges, creating a bold, sculptural look that instantly draws attention.
With its neat, clustered growth habit and incredibly easy-going nature, 'Whitney' is an excellent choice for both new and experienced plant parents. Like its larger relatives, it is wonderfully tolerant of a range of indoor conditions and requires very little attention to look its best. Whether you're styling a desk, bookshelf, bedside table, or office space, this compact snake plant delivers maximum impact with minimal effort.
The Mother-in-Law's Tongue 'Whitney' thrives in a variety of lighting conditions, from lower light areas to bright, indirect light. Its drought-tolerant nature makes it particularly forgiving if you occasionally forget a watering, making it one of the easiest houseplants to grow successfully.
Pair with a bold ceramic planter to highlight its striking variegation, or soften its architectural form with a natural woven basket for a beautiful contrast of textures.
Please note: Sansevieria is considered toxic, so it is best kept out of reach of curious pets and children.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Follow these instructions to keep your Mother-in-Law's Tongue healthy and happy:
