The Plant of Snakes is a low-maintenance houseplant. It can withstand low light levels. At night, snake plants release oxygen, and NASA strongly suggests using snake plants to absorb airborne pollutants.
Dos
Although Sansevieria like bright, filtered light, they can survive in lower light levels if the watering schedule is changed and the soil is maintained somewhat dry.
Don'ts
Root rot is often caused by overwatering. Look out for spider mites and mealybugs.
