Sansevieria Black Gold

Sansevieria trifasciata 'Black Gold', Dracaena trifasciata 'Black Gold', Black Gold Snake Plant, Variegated Snake Plant

Sansevieria Black Gold is a striking and resilient houseplant known for its bold contrast of deep green, almost black leaves bordered with vibrant golden-yellow margins. The upright growth makes it a sculptural centerpiece in modern interiors and an easy-care option for plant enthusiasts of all experience levels.

Also called Dracaena trifasciata ‘Black Gold’, this snake plant is exceptionally hardy and thrives on minimal attention. Its low water needs, tolerance for low light, and ability to handle dry indoor air make it ideal for busy households, offices, or beginners. The rich coloring becomes more pronounced in bright indirect light but can adapt to a range of lighting conditions.

In addition to its dramatic appearance, Sansevieria Black Gold also contributes to cleaner indoor air by filtering common toxins. With very little maintenance, it continues to grow slowly and steadily, providing enduring beauty and structure with very little effort.

care instructions:

Light Requirements: Tolerates low to bright indirect light; best coloration in medium to bright, filtered light.
Soil Needs: Prefers sandy loam or cactus soil with perlite or pumice for sharp drainage.
Watering: Water thoroughly only when soil is completely dry; avoid overwatering.
Humidity: Tolerates dry air and low humidity; no misting necessary.
Fertilizing: Feed once in spring and once in summer with diluted cactus or succulent fertilizer.
Pruning: Trim off any yellowing or damaged leaves at the base using clean shears.
Repotting: Repot every 2 to 3 years or when rootbound, using fresh, well-draining soil.

Please note: This plant comes in its grower’s nursery pot, ready for you to place in your favorite decorative pot at home. The pot in the picture is not included.
