Snake Plant Benefits
Awesome benefits of the Snake Plant include the ability to filter indoor air. It can inhale CO2 and convert that into oxygen overnight, helping to encourage air flow. It also has the ability to remove toxins from the surrounding environment. Some toxins include benzene, formaldehyde, and xylene among others. It’s also pretty resilient and can tolerate some drought, too much shade, too much light, or lack of fertilizer. Great for beginners.
Reach for the Sky!
The Snake Plant has striking foliage that allows it to stand out from the crowd. More specifically, its pointy, slim leaves stand straight up and grow in tall bunches. Occasionally the leaves fan out at odd angles and give it the appearance of arms reaching up to the sky.
A Jar of Cucumbers
Besides the unique leaf shape, the Snake Plant has many contrasting hues that add to its highly desired color scheme. Filled with hunter greens, emerald splashes, and lime highlights, the Trifasciata is an eye-catcher that will spice up any space… It also kinda’ looks like a jar of cucumbers. There are variations of the plant that encompass sage and tea green hues, adding to its gorgeous color pallet.
Air Purifier
As if this slim beauty wasn’t cool enough, it also has air purifying abilities! Plants breathe, and when they do, they also absorb allergens and toxins found in the air around it through small pores on their leaves. The same process as photosynthesis, your Snake plant can remove toxins like benzene, carbon dioxide, and formaldehyde from the surrounding air, making it a great bedroom plant.
