Notes
'Jaboa' snake plant (Dracaena trifasciata 'Jaboa') is a succulent for containers, indoor spaces, and accents. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 10 and warmer, down to about 30°F (-1°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes part sun to full shade, average moisture, and sandy or loamy soil. Its dark green leaves have an olive green marbled, spotted pattern. The leaves bend more than those of typical upright forms.
Pairs well with Raven zz plant, Boston fern, and Golden pothos.
