Sansevieria trifasciata 'Futura Superba,' also known as Futura Superba Snake Plant, Mother-in-Law's Tongue, or Devil's Tongue, is a resilient and low-maintenance houseplant native to West Africa. This snake plant variety features tall, sword-like leaves with dark green centers and bold yellow edges, creating a striking upright display. Known for its air-purifying properties, the Futura Superba is a perfect addition to homes and offices. It thrives in various light conditions and requires minimal watering, making it ideal for beginners or busy individuals. This hardy plant not only enhances indoor decor but also improves air quality, contributing to a healthier living space.
Best Locations For Growing Futura Superba Snake Plant
The Futura Superba Snake Plant is versatile and suits bedrooms, living rooms, offices, and hallways. Its air-purifying ability makes it ideal for bedrooms, while its low-maintenance nature fits busy lifestyles. Note that the plant is mildly toxic if ingested, so it should be kept out of reach of pets and children.
Futura Superba Snake Plant Sunlight Requirements
This plant thrives in bright, indirect light but tolerates low-light conditions. For best growth, place it near a south- or west-facing window. While it can adapt to fluorescent lighting, avoid intense, direct sunlight, which can scorch its leaves.
Futura Superba Snake Plant Care
The Futura Superba is highly adaptable and requires minimal care. Use a well-draining cactus or succulent soil mix, and repot every 2–3 years to prevent it from becoming root-bound. Choose a pot with drainage holes to promote healthy root development.
Watering Futura Superba Snake Plant
Allow the soil to dry out completely before watering. Typically, watering every 2–3 weeks is sufficient. In low-light conditions or during winter dormancy, reduce the watering frequency to avoid root rot.
Feeding Futura Superba Snake Plant
Feed the plant once or twice during the growing season (spring and summer) with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer. Avoid fertilizing during fall and winter when the plant is not actively growing.

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
