Sun: Indirect

Sansevieria Trifasciata Jade Pagoda thrives in low light conditions, although it exhibits faster growth in brighter environments. While it can survive in low light settings throughout your home, ensure there's access to a window in the room. It's essential to note that low light doesn't equate to no light, and the plant's growth depends on the amount of light it receives.

Light: Low

Sansevieria Trifasciata Jade Pagoda thrives in bright, indirect light, making it an ideal addition to any indoor space. While it can tolerate some early morning or late evening sun, direct sunlight should be avoided. Filtered sunlight through a sheer curtain provides the perfect balance, ensuring the plant receives adequate light without the risk of sun damage. Place it in a spot where it can enjoy bright, indirect light throughout the day while being shielded from direct sun exposure.






Water: When fully dry

Sansevieria Trifasciata Jade Pagoda prefers its soil to fully dry out before the next watering, typically occurring every four weeks in an average household setting. However, this timeframe may fluctuate based on seasonal changes, your specific environment, and lighting conditions. To avoid overwatering, it's best to err on the side of underwatering and only water when you notice signs of dehydration, such as wrinkling or softened leaves. Increase watering frequency slightly during warmer months to accommodate the plant's heightened water needs.

Humidity: Low

Their humidity needs are minimal, so refrain from misting or enclosing them in a terrarium.







Pet Friendly: Caution

This plant has moderate toxicity levels and may induce adverse reactions if ingested, so it's advisable to keep it out of reach of pets. While reactions can vary in severity based on the amount ingested, if your pet doesn't typically consume plants, this one should be safe to have in your home.

Pro Tip

They thrive on neglect, so if you're unsure about when to water, wait a bit longer. This hardy plant is more tolerant of drought than excess moisture.

Your Complete Guide to Pot Sizes: What Size Should You Choose?

When selecting a pot for your plant, it's important to find the right size. But with all the different options out there, how do you know which one is best? We're here to help!

MyGreenscape's pot sizes chart is a great resource for finding your perfect fit. Our easy-to-read chart takes out all the guesswork and helps you quickly choose the right size for your plant.

Smaller pots are best for seedlings or small plants just starting out. These tend to be shallow but wide, allowing enough room for the roots of the young plant but not too much where they get overcrowded. Medium-sized pots are ideal when your plant has grown from its infancy and is ready for more space. These are deeper and wider than small pots, so that it can accommodate larger root systems - making sure your plant gets enough nourishment while still giving it breathing room. Large pots are top choice if you have an established plant in need of lots of space - think trees and large shrubs! The spacious depth and width allow plenty of room for deep root systems without struggling for air or light.

No matter what size you choose, MyGreenscape has got you covered, with our pot sizes chart guaranteeing you find the perfect fit every time!
