{"product_id":"medium-snake-plant-blue-ceramic-pot","title":"Medium Snake Plant in Blue Ceramic Pot | Live Houseplant","description":"\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThis is a medium snake plant in a blue ceramic pot, grown in the Lealman and St. Petersburg area of Pinellas County. I hand-select plants with upright, unblemished leaves and firm roots so it looks finished the day it lands on your table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThe botanical name is Dracaena trifasciata. Most folks still say Sansevieria or mother in law's tongue. At this size the sword leaves stay compact, which is why a medium plant works on a desk, nightstand, or office shelf when a large floor specimen would crowd the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eGive it bright indirect light. A little morning sun is fine. A dimmer Tampa Bay room slows growth but rarely kills it. Water only when the mix is dry all the way through, often every two to three weeks. Then soak and let it drain. If your blue ceramic pot has no hole, water even less. Wet soil, not skipped weeks, is what ruins this plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eIt is a tough beginner houseplant and a solid gift for apartments and offices. Keep it away from pets that chew. The leaves contain saponins that can cause stomach upset if eaten.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eI have grown houseplants in Florida for 13 years. Send a photo if a leaf wrinkles or yellows after delivery and I will walk you through it. St. Pete area pickup when listed, including Gulfport, Pinellas Park, Largo, Clearwater, and nearby towns. We also ship nationwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFAQ\u003c\/strong\u003e (paste under the description for Google, ChatGPT, and “near me” answers)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size is this snake plant?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is a medium indoor snake plant, sized for a table, shelf, or desk.
