Dracaena (Sansevieria) trifasciata 'Laurentii'

Dracaena trifasciata 'Laurentii' is the familiar yellow-edged snake plant, with tall sword-shaped leaves rising in firm fans from the base. Each leaf has a deep green centre marked with softer grey-green horizontal banding, framed by clear yellow margins that make the leaf shape stand out even from a distance. The result is strong, recognisable and clear in a pot.

This cultivar brings height in a slim space. It grows from a rhizome, so new leaves appear as basal shoots beside the older fans. Over time, a young plant becomes a fuller clump as fresh leaves push up from the base and add more layers to the yellow-edged outline.

Classic yellow margins on tall sword leaves

  • Leaf shape: Tall, sword-like blades create a strong vertical line.
  • Colour contrast: Yellow margins frame the banded green centre of each leaf.
  • Growth base: The rhizome sends up new leaves beside older fans, gradually thickening the clump.
  • Indoor placement: It gives height while taking up limited floor or shelf space.
  • Longevity: Mature leaves stay firm for a long time when the root zone is kept warm, airy and dry between waterings.

Rhizome storage and dry intervals

Dracaena trifasciata is a rhizomatous species from seasonally dry tropical parts of Africa. 'Laurentii' stores water in thick leaves and depends on oxygen around the rhizome after watering. The plant handles dry intervals well because the leaves and underground structure are built for moisture storage.

'Laurentii' keeps the strong leaf form of the species and adds bright marginal colouring. The yellow edges are part of the cultivar’s visual identity, while the grey-green striping across the blade gives the centre more depth. Mature leaves can become tall and rigid, so the pot should be stable enough to balance the top growth.

Growth is usually slow indoors, especially in winter or away from bright windows. New shoots may appear narrow at first before expanding into stronger leaves. A slightly snug pot keeps the rhizome stable and lets the substrate dry at a predictable pace.

Care for tall yellow-edged leaves

  • Light: In bright indirect light, new leaves stay sturdier and the contrast remains clearer. In lower light, the plant grows more slowly and the pot needs longer drying time.
  • Watering: Wait until the potting mix has dried deeply, then water evenly and let the pot drain fully. The next watering should come after the lower mix has dried again.
  • Substrate: Use a free-draining mix with pumice, lava rock, coarse sand or fine bark. Mineral structure keeps air around the rhizome.
  • Pot choice: A pot with drainage holes and enough weight for tall leaves keeps the plant steady.
  • Temperature: Keep it in normal indoor warmth, ideally around 18–27 °C. Warm conditions help the root zone recover after watering.
  • Humidity: Average household humidity is sufficient.
  • Feeding: Use a diluted balanced or cactus fertiliser during active growth. Light feeding matches the plant’s slow rhizome growth.
  • Repotting: Repot when new shoots crowd the pot, the container starts to distort or the substrate has broken down. A modest size increase is enough.
  • Propagation: Division preserves the yellow-edged pattern. Leaf cuttings can root and may produce green plants.

Yellow-edge stress signs

  • Soft leaf bases: Inspect the substrate depth, cover pot and rhizome area. Softness near the soil line usually means the lower plant stayed damp for too long.
  • Wrinkled leaves: Check the root system before adding more water. Dryness and damaged roots can both produce a wrinkled leaf surface.
  • Brown margins: Review irregular watering, mineral buildup, old knocks and cold air exposure. Remove only the dry edge if trimming is needed.
  • Leaning leaves: Rotate the pot and check whether new shoots are pressing older leaves sideways. Mature plants may need a heavier pot for a steady base.
  • Paused growth: Growth often slows in winter. Check light and warmth first, then adjust feeding during active growth if needed.

Safety for shared spaces

Keep Dracaena trifasciata 'Laurentii' out of reach of pets and small children who may chew the leaves. Snake plants contain saponins, which can cause nausea, vomiting or diarrhoea in cats and dogs if ingested. The tall, firm leaves also need a secure spot where the pot stays steady.

Botanical name of the classic snake plant

The accepted botanical name for the species is Dracaena trifasciata, while Sansevieria trifasciata remains the older name still widely used in plant shops and care guides. The genus name Dracaena comes from the Greek drakaina, meaning “female dragon”, a name historically linked to red resin in some dragon tree relatives. The species epithet trifasciata means “three-banded” or “marked with three bands”, referring to the banded pattern associated with the species.

Dracaena trifasciata 'Laurentii' has tall green leaves, yellow margins and one of the most recognisable snake plant forms.

Finding a Home
Format: Paperback
A Place for us is a beautifully crafted and deeply moving love story about two women--one American, one British--who first meet in their youth and reconnect decades later. At its core, the novel portrays their struggle to navigate restrictive immigration laws in pursuit of a life together. Their journey highlights the urgent need to protect and legalize same-sex marriage, especially at a time when such rights feel increasingly precarious. A timely and relevant read.

So good
Format: Paperback
RATING : ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ SPICE: 🔥🔥 Hot damn Hannah did it again .if you want to read more sapphic romance, this one will absolutely blow your mind! Bryce and Daisy were everything I wanted and more! Fake dating will always be the superior trope, but when it’s forced proximity grumpy x sunshine and the grumpy one is secretly head over heels for the sunshine one, well I’m a damn puddle on the floor! I still can’t decide if I loved Bryce or Daisy more, but I do. Know this might just be my favorite book Hannah has ever written. ☀️ Fake Dating ☀️ Grumpy x Sunshine ☀️ Forced Proximity / Roommates ☀️.Tattoo Artist / Teacher ☀️ So much pining I love Bryce so much. She is a total hard shell but she has such a gooey inside and she showed it so well with Daisy. This whole setup was fantastic, Daisy needs a place to stay so Bryce gets volunteered to give up her spare room. Daisy think Bryce doesn’t like her, but then you get to Bryce’s POV and you realize how down bad she has it for Daisy. Then Daisy proposes the fake date and OMG the tension. The longing. The secret tattoos. I loved every bit of these two figuring each other out. Watching Bryce absolutely melt for Daisy was just so so good. This may be a slow burn, but when it burns…. It’s an inferno. And the tattoo parlor scene is imbedded in my brain forever. Just everything about this made me happy and I will forever love Cherry Peak, these characters and this series! Now bring on Darren!

Love them!
Format: Paperback
“Calling Daisy Mitchell mine is a dream that I never planned on coming true but always hoped would.” Gahhh my first FF and I’m hooked! Thank you Hannah! Daisy and Bryce are as opposites as can be, one is pure sunshine and the other is as icy as can be but they couldn’t be more perfect for each other! I love the slow burn with all the sexual tension as they pretend to date while living together. Love the way they take care of each other, the love and admiration so evident in the way they touch and look at each other. Their nicknames for each other is just so cute and perfect! I love these two so much! Such a great addition to the Cherry Peak series! We get more of Johnny, who happens to be Daisy’s twin and I just can’t get enough of him either, he’s just so fun. And of course we get to see more of the rest of gang. Love these found family and I can’t wait for more!

Great resource for comic book writers
Format: Paperback
This book is exactly as advertised: a great collection of comic scripts by some of the best writers in the field. This is important for two reasons: 1) There is no set format for comic scripts, so seeing examples of how other people write theirs is invaluable. 2) It can be hard to find sample comic scripts online, especially by the top names in the field. Here's nine of them in one shot. Reading this book will give you great insight into how comics are made, and also how some of the best creators in the field approach their craft.

Exactly what it says it is on the tin.
Format: Paperback
It's a collection of comic book scripts, written by some of the best in the business. I'd love it if there were more examples of the finished product, and a step-by-step of back-and-forth between writer and the rest of the creative team would be awesome, but if what you really want is examples of the real deal, this is it.
