About the Sansevieria Spearmint

Sansevieria ‘Spearmint’, a mint-striped form of the classic snake plant, traces its resilience to arid African habitats where roots store water and leaves stand tall against sun and drought. Indoors, Minta brings clean lines and calm confidence—upright, sword-like foliage washed in soft green and creamy bands.


She thrives in bright, indirect light yet tolerates low light; keep her from harsh afternoon sun. Water sparingly, letting most of the mix dry before a deep drink, and use a fast-draining soil. A quick leaf wipe keeps that satin sheen. Tough, architectural, and air-purifying. We ship her snug and secure so she arrives fresh, healthy, and undamaged—ready to settle in with minimal fuss.

Did you know?


Although famously low-maintenance, Sansevierias perform CAM photosynthesis, opening stomata mostly at night to save water, which is why Mira pairs beautifully with low-light corners yet still contributes to fresher nighttime air. She’s mildly toxic; keep from curious pets.

Why the kitchen?

This plant is perfect for the kitchen because it brings instant polish and calm with minimal effort. Her bold, upright blades make a striking statement while subtly improving the air you breathe. Though she’s not safe for curious pets or children, she’s ideal for stylish, adult-friendly spaces. Low-maintenance, air-cleansing, and full of presence—Minta was made for the kitchen

Position: Floor

Place Minta where light is gentle—bright, indirect to low—like a few metres from a window or behind sheer curtains. She suits a Floor corner or Tabletop, with space for upright blades. Avoid harsh afternoon sun and cold drafts; windowsills work if filtered. Rotate monthly for balance. Mildly toxic, so style on shelves or stands away from curious pets and small children indoors.

Growth Habit: Upright

Straight, strong stems that reach toward the ceiling.

Soil: Well-Draining

Choose a well-draining, coarse mix so Minta’s rhizomes stay airy and dry between drinks. Use premium potting soil cut with chunky perlite, pumice, and a little washed sand; a handful of fine bark boosts structure. Avoid heavy, peat-laden blends and waterlogged pots. Let water run through freely, then reset; gritty, fast drainage keeps blades firm, crisp, and upright, growth season after season.

Propagation: Division or Leaf Cuttings

Propagate Sansevieria ‘Spearmint’ by DIVISION or LEAF CUTTINGS. For division, unpot and split the rhizome so each section has roots and several leaves; pot in a gritty, fast-draining mix and water lightly. For leaf cuttings, slice leaves into 5–8 cm segments, callus 2–3 days, then root upright in mix; note variegation may revert. Keep warm, bright-indirect, and barely moist. Avoid direct sun initially.

Bright, Indirect

Minta thrives in bright, indirect light but handles low light gracefully; avoid harsh afternoon sun. Set her metres from windows or behind sheer curtains. More light, not heat, keeps blades crisp and strong.

Low

Give Minta low watering: let most of the mix dry, then water thoroughly and drain. Every 2–3 weeks in warmth, monthly in cooler months. Use room-temperature water, avoid soggy soil, and empty saucers.

Novice

Minta is famously easy—bright, indirect to low light, infrequent watering, and a gritty, well-draining mix. Avoid overwatering, harsh afternoon sun, and drafts. Wipe leaves occasionally; rotate monthly for upright growth.

Low

Minta prefers low humidity—dry, steady air suits her best. Keep her away from heaters and blasting AC, but no misting needed. Grouping unnecessary; simply ensure airflow and she’ll keep her mint-striped blades crisp.

Toxicity

Mildly Toxic: May cause adverse reactions if ingested in large quantities.
