The Sansevieria Boncel Dwarf, often called the Starfish Snake Plant, is a compact and uniquely shaped succulent that stands out with its thick, cylindrical, fan-like leaves that grow outward in a striking starburst pattern. Its small size and low-maintenance nature make it perfect for desks, shelves, or tabletops, bringing modern elegance to any space.

Size and Growth:

Height and Spread: The Sansevieria Boncel Dwarf grows up to 6-8 inches tall and 5-6 inches wide, making it an excellent choice for smaller spaces.

Growth Rate: Slow-growing, ideal for those looking for a low-maintenance, long-lasting addition to their plant collection.

Pet-Friendliness:

Toxicity: The Sansevieria Boncel Dwarf is toxic to pets if ingested, potentially causing mild to moderate discomfort. Keep it out of reach of curious cats, dogs, and other animals.

Care Instructions:

Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light but is highly adaptable and can tolerate lower light levels. It can also handle some direct sunlight.

Watering: Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot. Water approximately once every 2-3 weeks, depending on light and humidity levels.

Soil: Use a well-draining succulent or cactus mix. A pot with drainage holes is essential to prevent water retention.

Temperature: Prefers warm indoor temperatures between 15-29°C. Protect it from frost or extreme cold.

Humidity: Tolerates low humidity and is perfectly suited for dry indoor conditions.

Fertilizer: Feed with a diluted succulent or cactus fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring and summer). No feeding is needed in fall and winter.

Pruning: Rarely requires pruning but remove any dead or damaged leaves to keep it looking tidy.

Propagation: Easily propagated through division or leaf cuttings, making it simple to grow more plants or share with friends.
