Sansevieria Futura Superba – HydroCare
A curvaceous cousin of the trifasciata Laurentii, the Futura Superba makes up for its smaller size with an emphasis on wide, extravagant leaves that are dappled with snake-like patterning and enclosed in a border of striking yellow variegation. A superb future lies ahead…
These are robust, stocky plants. Perfect if you’re looking for a Sansevieria with all their easy-care qualities, but don’t have the space for one of the taller varieties. The HydroCare version is considered virtually indestructible and an excellent choice for all situations.
Please note: some scarring may occur on the leaves.
