Silver-colored foliage is trending now, and the Silver Princess snake plant is a must-have addition to any collection. Its elegantly slender leaves in pale shades of silvery green are banded with deep green. The fine foliage texture and vibrant coloring make Silver Princess an excellent complement to deeper-colored tropical or flowering plants indoors. This cultivated hybrid is just as easygoing as any other Dracaena (formerly known as Sansevieria).

Best Locations For Growing Silver Princess Snake Plant

The clumping, upright growth habit of Silver Princess makes it an ideal floor plant for nearly any corner of the home. Its superpower lies in its ability to tolerate all light levels; whether in natural light or not, Silver Princess continues to produce new leaves year-round. This resilience makes it perfect for offices, dorms, or apartments with limited natural light. However, keep curious pets and children away, as the leaves contain a toxic sap that can cause skin irritation and digestive issues.

Silver Princess Snake Plant Sunlight Requirements

All light levels are suitable for Silver Princess. Brighter conditions will enhance the silver coloring and the size of the leaves. To protect the plant from harsh midday light, position it in an east or west-facing window or at least three feet away from a south-facing window. Plants in medium to low light will require less frequent watering than those in brighter settings.

Silver Princess Snake Plant Care

Snake plants thrive in well-drained soil that is not overly rich in nutrients. An all-purpose potting mix combined with perlite or horticultural grit at a 1:1 ratio promotes adequate air circulation around the roots while retaining moisture between waterings. 

Pruning is rarely necessary; older leaves may yellow, brown, and die back as the plant matures. Remove these faded leaves close to the soil level as needed. Repot Silver Princess only when roots begin to emerge from the bottom and possibly the top of the pot, as snake plants tolerate being moderately pot-bound.

Watering Silver Princess Snake Plant

Allow snake plants to dry out more than other plants between waterings. The primary enemy of snake plants is overwatering, as their roots are not designed to sit in water for extended periods. Check for watering needs every 7-10 days throughout the year. Humidity levels are not a concern when cultivating snake plants.

Feeding Silver Princess Snake Plant

Fertilize once or twice a year if the colors of your snake plant appear faded or lackluster. An all-purpose houseplant food with a balanced NPK ratio is ideal. Take care to avoid getting liquid fertilizer on the leaves, as it can cause unsightly spotting or burns.
