Snake 'Fabi'

Snake Plant ‘Fabi’ 🐍🌿 has deep green to nearly black upright leaves with creamy yellow-green edges, giving it a darker, moodier look than many other snake plant varieties. It does best in bright indirect light indoors, though it also handles lower light spots well, which makes it a great fit for offices, bedrooms, and easy-care corners of the home. This is a very forgiving plant that works well for beginners or anyone who forgets to water now and then. Pro tip: keep the watering can on a short leash 🚰—letting the soil dry out fully is the easiest way to keep this plant happy.
