Alternating leaf pairs fan out to create the appealing structural growth habit of Sansevieria ehrenbergii 'Samurai'. This hard to find, dwarf cultivar stays delightfully compact, growing to just around 6" tall, which makes it a great choice for small spaces. Just as simple to care for as other Snake Plants, it tolerates very low light and is very drought tolerant. Though this plant is quite slow growing, as it matures it creates ‘pups’ that emerge around the central plant.
