DESCRIPTION
True to its intriguing name, Sanseveria masoniana 'Shark Fin' is a spectacular houseplant native to the Democratic Republic of Congo. This stunning variety showcases wide, mottled green leaves that strikingly resemble the dorsal fin of a shark, hence its name. These leaves are thick, fleshy, and can grow up to 3 feet in height, making a dramatic statement in any interior space. With its unique leaf structure, it's a standout even among other Sanseveria varieties. This fascinating plant boasts not only a captivating visual appeal but also an easy-to-care nature, making it a favorite among both novice and experienced plant enthusiasts. Despite its exotic origins, it's remarkably tolerant of a range of indoor conditions and can thrive in low light as well as bright indirect light, making it a versatile addition to any room. Sanseveria masoniana 'Shark Fin' has an interesting growth habit. Rather than spreading out, it grows vertically, with each leaf growing directly from the soil, creating an intriguing, sculptural effect. This slow-growing plant is perfect for those who appreciate plants that change subtly over time, adding to their charm and character. This plant is not just a pretty face. It's also an air-purifying champion, known for its ability to remove toxins from the air and increase oxygen levels, contributing to a healthier living environment. It's an excellent choice for bedrooms, living rooms, or office spaces, where it can provide both visual interest and practical benefits. One of the most delightful features of Sanseveria masoniana 'Shark Fin' is its potential to bloom. Though rare indoors, when it does happen, it's a spectacle to behold. Tall stalks will emerge from the base of the plant, topped with clusters of fragrant, white flowers, adding a sweet aroma to its many charms. Sanseveria masoniana 'Shark Fin' is an enchanting addition to any plant collection. Its unusual form, ease of care, and air-purifying abilities make it a valuable and eye-catching element in any indoor garden. Whether you're a seasoned plant collector or just starting your green journey, this fascinating plant will add a dash of drama and a touch of the exotic to your space.
PLANT SIZING & APPEARANCE

Plant sizing is based on the diameter of the nursery pot (2", 2.5", 3", 4" etc), not the plant itself. Plants may be slightly larger or smaller than the pot they are grow in depending on availability or time of year. While we do our best to ship plants as similar to those pictured as possible, please keep in mind that all plants are unique from one to the next, and display color, shape, and growth variation based on current environment, time of year, and other contributing factors. Please note that we ship our plants as dry as possible in the fall and winter months to prevent root rot or freezing. They will plump back up after planting!
