Snake Plant 'Fernwood Mikado'
Sansevieria 'Fernwood Mikado'
Snake Plant 'Fernwood Mikado' - A Rare, Sculptural Beauty:
The Snake Plant 'Fernwood Mikado' is a unique and eye-catching variety of Sansevieria, once featured as part of the exclusive Bloombox Club Classic Subscription. Native to the arid regions of West Africa, this plant is adapted to hot, dry environments-making it an excellent choice for anyone seeking a low-maintenance, drought-tolerant indoor plant with a sculptural presence.
Distinctive Appearance
Nicknamed "Witches' Fingers," the Fernwood Mikado is known for its slender, cylindrical fronds that taper to sharp points. The foliage grows upright in an elegant, fan-like arrangement, and each frond is beautifully patterned with tiger-striped variegation in shades of deep green, silvery blue, and muted olive. Its architectural shape makes it ideal for minimalist, modern, or bohemian interiors.
Perfect for Busy Plant Parents
This plant thrives on neglect and is especially well-suited to beginners or those with busy lifestyles. Think of it like a succulent-it stores water in its leaves, so it prefers to be on the drier side. Water sparingly and allow the soil to dry out between waterings. Although it appreciates a touch of humidity, the Mikado can handle average indoor conditions with ease.
