Sansevieria Desertii “Sansevieria Cylindrica Skyline”

Sansevieria Desertii or Sansevieria cylindrica Skyline is a very striking succulent from Angola that produces from an underground rhizome open candelabrum shaped fans with dichotomously branched stout 1 ½ wide gray-green leaves to 2 to 5 feet long.

• The leaves are smooth with narrow groves running much of the length of the leaf which is lightly banded with dark green and terminate with a sharp point.
• If Sansevieria Desertii grown in bright enough light this plant can produce a 3 foot spike-like raceme of pink-budded white flowers.
• This plant is a great house plant in bright light but can be grown in light shade or full sun if brought indoors during cool and wet weather.

Care

• Plants grown with too little light will have leaves that splay outward and are not as stout.
• Plant in a well-drained mix and keep fairly dry, especially in winter months.
• This plant can go weeks between watering (3 week irrigation intervals are suggested), the one thing that usually kills a Sansevieria is overwatering.
