Detail
Sansevieria masoniana is nicknamed Whale Fin Snake Plant because of the unique shape of its unusually wide, paddle-like leaves. Though slow-growing, the Whale Fin Sansevieria reaches impressive size compared to other members of the genus. Its leaves are beautifully mottled with patterns of dark and light green, and the leaf margins are often a pink-ish red. Like all Snake Plants, Sansevieria masoniana is known for its air-purifying abilities, and is great for beginners, requiring very little maintenance.
Whale Fin Sansevieria can thrive in a wide range of light conditions, from low light to bright indirect. Water infrequently, only when the soil has completely dried out - depending on light, this may be as little as once a month or less.

After such a long time, a pup emerges.

The pup is almost as big as the mother plant.

All repotted. Whale fins just look better solo.

These two-leafed whale fins were oddly joined so I decided to separate them and repot. Cut with sharp knife and immediately repot. RM8 per pot at C&O.
