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.

Love the color, and texture of the blanket. Great price too!
Size: California King, Color: Peacock Blue
We have this blanket sandwiched between our top sheet and comforter. My husband feels nice and warm with the blanket, but I'm a warm sleeper. I feel comfortable also since a keep a floor fan aimed to my side of the bed. Problem solved and we both get a comfortable, good night's sleep.

Soft, Luxurious & Perfect for Hair and Skin!

These satin pillowcases are honestly amazing. The material feels super soft, smooth, and cooling on the skin, and they make my bed look so elegant and luxurious. I bought them mainly to help protect my hair from frizz and dryness, They’re also very comfortable to sleep on and don’t feel cheap at all. The color is beautiful in person, exactly like the photos on Amazon. I washed them already and they still kept their softness and shine. Definitely worth the purchase for the price I would 100% buy again and recommend to anyone looking for cute, comfortable satin pillowcases.”

Budget friendly satin pillowcase
Size: Standard (20" X 26"), Color: 18 - Lavender, Number of Items: 2
This satin pillowcase is a great budget-friendly option! While it’s not quite as luxurious as my Blissy pillowcase, it still does a really nice job—especially for the price. It has that smooth, silky feel that helps reduce hair frizz and feels gentle on the skin. It’s also easy to wash and holds up well, which is perfect for everyday use. I especially love using these for the kids—they get the benefits of a softer pillowcase without worrying about ruining a more expensive one. Overall, it’s a solid, affordable alternative that still feels nice and does the job. Great value and perfect for families!

Super soft and durable, but keep your steamer handy!

I’m really impressed with these grey satin pillowcases! First off, the packaging was adorable, making them feel like a little treat to unbox. The texture is incredibly soft and feels great against my skin. In terms of maintenance, they’ve held up perfectly through the wash. I followed the instructions (machine wash on gentle cycle and tumble dry on low/fluff), and they came out looking as good as new. The only real downside is the wrinkling. Even when I remove them from the dryer promptly, they tend to wrinkle pretty badly (see attached photo). If you don't mind a quick steam or a few creases, these are a good value!

Fantastic satin pillow cases for the price
Size: Queen (20" X 30"), Color: 02 - Pure White, Number of Items: 2
Edit: I already put five stars in the first place, but I was unfair to these pillow cases in my initial review! I thought they were a little warmer than the natural silk, because I was sleeping on them with acrylic pyjamas on. I have come to realise the pillow cases are not warm. They are truly excellent in every way. I just get sweaty every time I wear acrylic pyjamas! I have already ordered two more sets of these (and have switched to micrfibre pyjamas)! Original review: First off, I want to address a popular misconception. Satin is a weave, not a fibre. So polyester satin is real satin, and it is very common. To all the people saying the makers lied about the fabric, they absolutely did not! I bought these and I bought some inexpensive silk ones at the same time. I have been loving the silk ones and only started using these lately. I'm happy with all of them. These are not silk, and I can feel the difference, but they are a nice, smooth polyester satin. The white colour is indeed a pure white. I machine washed mine and hung them to dry. They did not wrinkle, pick or pill, and they did not change in colour or size. They look fresh and pristine. I measured my pillows and got the right size. They are pretty and neat, they seem to be well sewn and well finished, with no hanging threads. They are very soft to sleep on and did not make my dry, curly hair frizz up. I slept on them without my protective bonnet, so I got the full experience! Honestly, with the smooth, tight weave of the fabric, they may be superior to the real silk in terms of babying my skin and hair. However, they are a little bit warmer. That is fine for now, since the weather is cool. I might just use these while it is cool out and switch to silk in summer, or I might continue to alternate, we will see. Overall, I am happy with my purchase and would buy them again.
