Snake Plant
The Snake Plant is a large succulent and thus extremely adaptable and low maintenance – the perfect starter plant. It is also a terrific air purifier, making it a healthy and attractive addition to any indoor space.
Prefers medium to bright indirect light, but adaptable to less light
Water sparingly, prefers to dry out between waterings
Low maintenance and great for beginners
The Story
Its name comes from the long sturdy leaf blades reminiscent of a snake rising out of the ground. The plant can handle weeks of neglect and still maintain its strong architectural shape, so it’s recommended for nearly everyone.
45 Day Guarantee
If your plant dies within 45 days of arrival, we will replace it at no cost. Learn more.

Customer reviews for the Snake Plant
Kristina J. Verified Buyer
February 06, 2019Excellent service
We had issues with our first plant as it was delivered during a SUPER cold snap and didn’t rebound well. The team assessed our plant, sent us a new one, and some insights on how to adapt for winter. The new plant is doing wonderfully and the original will also likely rebound slowly after pruning and adjusting watering amounts!

March 05, 2020Loved the ceramic pot and modern wood stand. Impressed with packaging as well!
Unfortunately it seems like my Snake plant experienced some shock during transit and was held over the weekend by my buildings management, but after emailing my concerns to Customer support, Renée was quick to respond and send off another plant! Overall a great experience, great customer service, and it really brings so much life to the room its in!

June 23, 2019Worth every penny - beautiful plant and stand!
The snake plant and stand arrived in mint condition and were even more beautiful than pictured! Unboxing was easy and mess-free - a far better experience than other plant delivery services that I have tried. I also love that the stand is reversible and adjusts to shorter and taller heights. Overall, worth every penny and will only be ordering from Leon & George in the future!

March 24, 2020Simple process for those new to plants/gardening
The shopping guides and ability to buy an all-in-one (plant/planter/stand) made the shopping experience very straight forward and gave me confidence I was ordering a plant that was well-suited for the room. The shipping/packaging were great. Easy to open, creative packing solution to keep plant safe in-transit. I thought the stand was missing until I found it disassembled/taped to the inside of the outer-box. The plant is healthy and beautiful so far. I haven’t had to contact the plant doctor, but it’s nice to know there’s support available if I need it.

August 05, 2020Amazing service and beautiful plants
The shipping service had damaged our plant pretty badly (Dumped it upside down in the box, retaped the box, etc). Without hesitation, L&G sent a replacement plant to go in the planter we had bought. The replacement is beautiful, strong, and healthy. Glad we went with a plant that was grown a bit - a great accent piece in our home.

August 30, 2020Great unboxing technology. Super easy and just as seen on the website.
Supposedly the plants will grow higher than listed which might be beneficial for the customers to know ahead.

June 23, 2019Loving Rosy.
Our snake plant (now named Rosy Boa, after a friendly snake) arrived in perfect condition and is doing well in her first 3 days with us. We live in a very cold climate (MN) but she was brought inside immediately after delivery so no damage from the cold. A+ so far.

January 24, 2019Great customer service
I ordered a large snake plant. It came on time, but unfortunately the pot was a bit broken up. I think this is UPS's fault, not the seller's. The plant itself was beautiful. Ron from customer service was very helpful with processing a refund. Sure, these guys are expensive, but it's hard to find good office plants online.
