How to Care for Your Braided Snake Plant

Place your Braided Snake Plant in virtually any lighting condition—from low light corners to bright sunlit spots. Use a cactus or succulent potting mix and ensure the pot has drainage holes. Water sparingly and let the soil fully dry between waterings. Overwatering is the most common issue, so when in doubt, wait a few extra days.

This plant prefers average household temperatures and dry air, making it ideal for any indoor environment. Fertilize only 1–2 times per year with a diluted succulent fertilizer during spring or summer.
