Snake Plant Gold Hahnii

Appearance: 'Gold Hahnii' is characterized by its rosette form, producing short, wide leaves that are green with creamy-golden edges. The leaves are arranged in a spiral fashion, creating a bird's nest-like appearance, which is a stark contrast to the tall, upright leaves of many other Sansevieria species.

Size: Being a compact variety, it typically grows to a height of 6-8 inches (15-20 cm).

Light Requirements: It can tolerate a range of light conditions, from low light to bright indirect light. Direct sunlight can cause the leaves to scorch or the colors to fade.

Watering: 'Gold Hahnii', like other snake plants, doesn't require frequent watering. It's essential to let the soil dry out completely between waterings to avoid overwatering and root rot.

Soil: A well-draining potting mix, preferably a cactus or succulent mix, is ideal.

Temperature: Prefers warm conditions but is quite hardy. It's best to protect it from temperatures below 50°F (10°C).

Toxicity: The plant is toxic when ingested, which can cause gastrointestinal upset. It's advisable to keep it away from pets and children.

Air-Purifying Qualities: Sansevierias are known for their air-purifying abilities. They can remove certain toxins from the air and uniquely produce oxygen during the night, contrary to most plants that do so during the day.

Propagation: The most reliable way to propagate and retain the variegation is through division. Leaf cuttings can also be used, but the resultant plants may not always retain the parent plant's variegation.

Maintenance: This cultivar is low maintenance. Occasionally, you might want to clean the leaves to remove dust.

Pest Resistance: While they're generally resistant to pests, always watch out for signs of infestations such as mealybugs or spider mites.
