Indoor Plants


Sansiviera Trifasciata "Laurenti" also known as snake plant or the mother in laws tongue because of the sharp leaves. In Japan they call it a Tiger’s tail but in Brazil it is popularly known as sword of Saint George because of it leaves shape forming like blade. It is also used in performing rituals to cast away the evil eye. Another name for this plant is “sword of Saint Barbara”. In Africa they use sansiviera as a protective charm to drive away evil and bewitchment.

Sansiviera is so easy to take care of, with a little amount of water and sunlight it can still grow and have flowers.
