The Snake Plant Zeylanica is a succulent plant characterized by its upright sword-like leaves with light green horizontal stripes. It is popular for its incredibly easy-going nature (it can tolerate low light and drought) and its air-purifying capabilities. The easiest way to kill this plant is to over-care for it.
