Sansevieria 'Cordova Variegated' – Compact Snake Plant with Variegated Leaves

Sansevieria 'Cordova Variegated' (recently reclassified as Dracaena) is a compact and highly decorative variety of Sansevieria, appreciated for its straight, sword-shaped leaves with distinct variegation.

The leaves are thick and succulent, dark green with light vertical stripes (light green or yellow) and often cream-yellow margins. The plant forms a dense, orderly rosette with a sculptural, modern appearance. It is one of the hardiest and easiest-to-care-for Sansevierias.

Main characteristics:

• Straight, sword-shaped leaves with yellow-cream variegation
• Compact and orderly rosette
• Sculptural, modern appearance
• Slow growth
• Size: 30–45 cm in height (in a pot)

Easy care:

• Light: tolerates anything from bright indirect light to partial shade. In better light, the variegation is more pronounced.
• Temperature: 16–30°C. It tolerates lower temperatures well, but not below 10–12°C for extended periods.
• Watering: very infrequent. Allow the substrate to dry out almost completely between waterings. Water even less frequently in winter.
• Humidity: low to medium (it tolerates dry air very well).
• Substrate: very well-draining, mineral-based.

Recommended substrate: For healthy growth and to prevent root rot, a special substrate for succulents is recommended. → Professional substrate for cacti, succulents and Adenium - Secret Garden

Uses: Excellent for offices, living rooms, bedrooms or spaces with lower light levels. Thanks to its compact size and exceptional hardiness, it is ideal for those looking for a decorative plant that requires minimal maintenance.

Note: Like all Sansevierias, it is highly sensitive to overwatering. Excessive watering is the main cause of plant loss. Allow the substrate to dry thoroughly before watering again.

A compact, hardy and easy-to-care-for variety, perfect for any indoor space.
