Sansevieria Table Mountain is a compact and highly decorative cultivar of the snake plant group (Dracaena), named after the iconic South African mountain due to its sturdy, architectural growth habit. Like all Sansevierias, it is native to arid regions of Africa and Asia, where it thrives in dry, rocky conditions.

The plant forms dense, upright rosettes of stiff, sword-shaped leaves. Each leaf is grey-green with mottled horizontal striping and may feature lighter variegation depending on growing conditions. The growth habit is shorter and broader than taller cultivars such as Laurentii, making Table Mountain ideal for tabletops, desks, or windowsills where a neat, space-saving plant is preferred.

Typically, this variety grows to 2040 cm in height, producing multiple offsets over time that develop into a striking clump. Its bold form and durability make it both practical and ornamental, particularly for modern and minimalist interiors.

Sansevieria Table Mountain Care Guide

Light

Tolerates a wide range of light conditions, from bright, indirect light to low light. Stronger light enhances the variegation, but prolonged direct sunlight may scorch the leaves.

Watering

Water sparingly. Allow the soil to dry out fully between waterings. In summer, watering every 23 weeks may be sufficient; in winter, monthly or less. Overwatering is the most common cause of failure.

Temperature and Humidity

  • Temperature: Best in 1828C. Can tolerate dips to 10C but must be protected from frost.

  • Humidity: Perfectly adapted to dry indoor air, making it excellent for centrally heated homes.

Soil and Potting

Use a gritty, free-draining cactus or succulent compost. Repot every 23 years in spring, dividing clumps if needed. Sansevierias prefer slightly root-bound conditions.

Feeding

Apply a diluted cactus or succulent fertiliser once a month during the growing season (springsummer). Stop feeding in autumn and winter.

Pruning and Maintenance

Remove old or damaged leaves at the base. Wipe foliage with a damp cloth to keep its natural markings visible. Offsets can be separated and repotted to propagate new plants.

Growth and Maturity

A slow grower, reaching 2040 cm tall. Over time, it produces offsets, forming a dense, clumping specimen. Mature plants may occasionally flower, producing small clusters of fragrant white-green blossoms.

Common Issues

  • Mushy leaves: Caused by overwatering or poor drainage.

  • Wrinkling: A sign of underwatering easily corrected with a deep soak.

  • Pests: Rare, but may occasionally attract mealybugs or spider mites.

Background and Benefits

Sansevierias are among the toughest houseplants, requiring minimal care while providing maximum architectural impact. NASA studies have also demonstrated their air-purifying qualities, removing toxins and releasing oxygen at night. The Table Mountain variety combines resilience with compact beauty, making it especially desirable for small spaces.
