Know before you buy
As a drought-tolerant succulent, this plant prefers its soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering is the most common mistake, so err on the side of caution and water sparingly, especially during the winter months.
No, the Snake 'Lavranos' is not pet-safe. It is toxic if ingested, so it is best kept on a high shelf or in a room inaccessible to curious pets.
This plant performs best in bright, indirect light. While it is quite resilient, avoid placing it in harsh, direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
Not at all. This variety actually prefers low humidity, making it an excellent choice for typical indoor environments or rooms with dry air.
The 'Lavranos' is a slow-growing succulent. Its compact, upright habit makes it a great choice for small spaces like desks or bookshelves, as it won't quickly outgrow its container.
