Get ready to be amazed by the African Spear plant, also known as Sansevieria cylindrica (Dracaena angolensis), one of the snake plant varieties and a vibrant member of the Sansevieria genus! It has many other common names, including cylindrical sansevieria, the cylindrical snake plant, the Starfish sansevieria, the bow-string hemp, dragon fingers, and pencil Sansevieria. 

This snake plant does not have ordinary upright, dark-green leaves; they are horizontally striped and have an extraordinary cylindrical fan shape that tapers to a fine point at its tips.The single leaf of this spear sansevieria can grow up to 7 feet tall and up to 1.4 inches wide. 

In the right conditions, these extraordinary Sansevieria plants might surprise you with a small creamy-white flower spike shooting up from their center. While the cylindrical snake plant flower is not the largest or most colorful among its succulent family, it does have a distinct, sweet-smelling, and pleasing fragrance. These delicate white blooms dance in the air like tiny fairies spreading joy and enchantment everywhere they go. It's simply magical! 

Remember, these cylindrical snake plants are mildly toxic for humans and pets, so, it's important to keep them away from children and pets. It is the simplest way to multiply and propagate Sansevieria cylindrica plants. You can either adopt the division or the leaf-cuttings method of Sansevieria cylindrica propagation. While this slow-growing succulent is known to live longer than most other succulents provided it is kept in a warm and well-lit position. 

Watering Needs 

Native to Africa, the African spear succulent plant doesn't need much water to thrive. In fact, it's best to water the Sansevieria cylindrica plant only when the soil is completely dry, which can be once every two to three weeks. When you do water your Sansevieria plants, be sure to do so thoroughly, allowing the water to soak into the soil. Be careful not to overwater it, as this can cause root rot, which can be fatal to the plant. 

But come wintertime (dormant period), you can cut back to every two weeks or less. And get this - any type of water (except hard water) will work just fine! So, whether you use tap or filtered, or even rainwater, your cylindrical snake plant will thrive in no time. Just remember to avoid hard water since this African spear plant doesn't like lime very much. 

Light Requirements 

The African spear plant, or Sansevieria cylindrica survives in bright full sunlight but can also tolerate low light conditions. It's best to avoid direct afternoon sunlight, as this can burn the leaves. 

If you're growing the African spear indoors, place it near a north-facing window that gets plenty of bright, indirect light. If you're growing it outdoors, be sure to provide it with some shade during the hottest part of the day. Without enough light, photosynthesis rates drop, leaves become thin, colors appear dull, there is an unhealthy look to the plant, and growth is stunted. 

Optimal Soil Needs 

The Sansevieria cylindrica prefers soil that's well-drained and rich in organic matter. A good potting mix for this African spear should be a combination of peat moss, perlite, and sand. You can also add some compost or aged manure to the soil to provide additional nutrients. Planet Desert has got your back with our specialized succulent potting mix that includes 5 natural substrates with organic mycorrhizae perfect for promoting healthy roots and happy plants. 

When it comes to fertilizing this Sansevieria, it's best to use a slow-release fertilizer that's high in nitrogen. You can fertilize the plant once a year during the growing season, which is typically from spring to fall. Avoid over-fertilization as it can lead to the death of your stunning succulent. 

Hardiness Zone & More 

Typically grown in hot, arid desert regions, the Sansevieria cylindrica thrives indoors in warm, dry surroundings. If you live in USDA regions 9 to 11, you can also grow these Sansevieria plants outdoors year-round, but they are not cold- or frost-tolerant, so you should plant them indoors or put them in a pot and move them indoors during the winter if you live outside of these regions. 

Keep your African spear plants away from cold, drafty windows and air vents if you are growing them indoors in a cold climate.

As an Amazon Vine member, I personally select products to review. I tend to choose items that align with my interests and needs, which often leads to positive 4- and 5-star ratings. However, if a product does not meet my expectations, or it is not a good value, I will always provide an honest and transparent assessment of its performance. EVERYTHING starts at a 5, and goes from there. I thoroughly read the descriptions and if I don't like the description, I don't order the item. If the product shows up as advertised they get a 5. If there are unadvertised flaws, or if the information or photos are misleading, it is noted and stars removed accordingly. All opinions expressed in my reviews are my own, and on occasion, I may include feedback from my family or friends to offer a more comprehensive perspective.

Cheap broken box and no bag, allow pieces to fall out and are now missing….
Color: Fifa Mascot 2, Size: 26PCS, Color: Fifa Mascot 2, Size: 26PCS
Tiny little puzzle with no picture and missing pieces…. What you should receive is a very small box, a little larger than a lighter or the size of a key fob. The box is very light weight and flimsy. Mine arrived crushed on the bottom corner and ripped. This is similar to a candy box. Same type and weight. The pieces are not in a bag at all so when my box arrived in the condition it was in, and nothing sealed, of course pieces are missing. There are supposed to be to be 26 and I don’t have but half. They all fell out of the box like candy falls out of a broken box. The puzzle itself is done by laser and the pieces I do have fit together well but, the color is off. I believe they use a stain and the ink has spread into the other pieces next to them. The color is deep and intense and most is accurately done but some pieces have multiple colors that are not in the right place. Some pieces I can’t tell which side is the front and which side is the back. The pieces are also so small, with so much information crammed on, I can’t make it out as I work on it or once it’s completed the best I can with only part of the pieces. I am disappointed with the whole thing and can only say the laser cutting was done well. Other than that, I wouldn’t order again, especially for a souvenir.
