Not Your Mother-in-Laws Snake Plant

The snake plant, also known as mother-in-law’s tongue, is a striking houseplant with deep emerald green leaves that boasts up to heights of 4 feet.  Its leaf denseness gives it the ability to spread by rhizomes.  Its nickname, mother-in-law’s tongue, originates from its sharp, pointed, leaf tip.  It hails from West Africa and makes a great patio plant during warm months.
