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.

Couldn’t be happier that Jelly’s are back!!
Size: 11 Little Kid, Color: Glitter Pink, Size: 11 Little Kid, Color: Glitter Pink
These are such fun little sandals for kids. The jelly style gives them a playful look, and they go with so many outfits. I love that they can be dressed up a bit or worn casually for everyday play. They’re super easy to clean, which is huge for kids’ shoes. Whether they get dirty outside or at the park, you can just wipe them down and they look good as new. They also feel sturdy and hold up really well with regular use. The fit is secure and they stay on without any issues, which is always something I look for in kids’ shoes. They’re comfortable enough for all-day wear too. Pros: Easy to clean, durable, secure fit, versatile style. This will sound weird but these shoes smell so good! Even my daughter thought so. Cons: None so far.

Fun Y2K Heels for Kids
Size: 3 Big Kid, Color: Glitter Pink, Size: 3 Big Kid, Color: Glitter Pink
These heels are absolutely adorable and bring a real fun Y2K vibe, perfect for an older kid who wants to add some sparkle to their outfit. The main material is a soft, jelly-style plastic which feels quite flexible. It does have a distinct, strong scent, but it's not unpleasant at all; just something to note when you first unbox them. The color is a lovely pink with gold sparkles mixed in. While it has a slightly more orange hue than I expected from the photos, it still looks really cool and vibrant. What stands out with these is how surprisingly practical they are for heels. The heels themselves are thick and provide solid balance, and the traction on the sole is good, making them easy to walk and even be active in. The insole has some light padding, adding to the comfort. In terms of fit, they run a little small, so keep that in mind when ordering, though they were close enough. My only minor gripe is the buckle; it's a standard plastic and metal clasp that you have to fasten each time, which isn't quite as convenient as some other kids' shoes that use a faux buckle with velcro underneath. Despite that, they're a really cute and well-designed pair of shoes for a young fashionista.

Very nice but insanely expensive
I got mini melissa Possession Heel in March 2026. These are excellent and I agree with virtually everything about them in the product description. These are stylish, they do look great, and they are definitely versatile in different occasions ways you can use them. The color on the Glitter Dark Pink one I got matches the pictures quite well, and these shoes overall look great and feel great. I do not have anything negative to say about them. Well, maybe the price but I will talk about that below. As for the price, $90 for these feel insanely expensive. The Glitter Dark Pink is currently discounted to $53 and even that feels quite expensive. Obviously these are nice, but I personally would consider $30 to be a great deal for these.

Size down!
Size: 2 Big Kid, Color: Glitter Pink
These fishermen sandal heels are absolutely adorable! My 9 year old says they are comfortable, and she's excited to wear them once it get a little warmer. This style didn't have the strong tutti frutti scent that the other Mini Melissa sandals have. We own a few pair of Mini Melissa, and they always have held up well, for the most part. Sizing runs small, so we sized down about a size and a half. I always appreciate the quality of this brand, and the style can't be beat

The CUTEST omg
Size: 13 Big Kid, Color: Glitter Pink, Size: 13 Big Kid, Color: Glitter Pink
These pink glitter platform sandals are the ultimate 'cool girl' shoe for toddlers. The sparkle is embedded in the material so it doesn't shed, and the platform is stable enough for confident walking. Insight: Like all Melissa’s, they have that heavenly bubblegum scent that lasts for months. These are the most comfortable shoes ever! They feel like walking on a cloud, I have several pairs myself and they are the BEST. Strap is durable and comfy. They are surprisingly lightweight for a platform sandal! These shoes run big and do not do half sizes so if between sizes size down for a perfect fit
