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.

It’s a YES from me!
Color: B-brown
I absolutely love this purse. And I’m so heartbroken because something got spilled inside of it and it affects the functionality of the person on the inside and it makes me so sad but I still use it anyway because there’s one side I can use completely and half a side I can use on the other side lol. It is very good quality. The storage is A+. It is definitely a good value for the price. I was skeptical at first as we all are ordering a purse off Amazon, that is not real leather, but it’s supposed to be good quality. It didn’t really have much of a smell. I actually don’t use the strap provided since I seen that the straps could be interchangeable, I used my strap off my previous purse instead, and now I love it love it! 😍 I get compliments on it all the time!

surprised me
I absolutely love this shoulder bag! The quality really surprised me and in a good way. The faux leather has such a smooth, polished look and feels soft but still very durable. It honestly gives that high-end vibe without the expensive price tag. The size is perfect for everyday use. It’s roomy enough to fit all my essentials like my phone, wallet, keys, and even some extra items like makeup, but it doesn’t feel bulky or oversized. I also really appreciate the inner pockets because they help keep everything organized instead of just throwing everything into one big space. Another thing I love is how practical it is. The material is water-resistant, which is a huge plus and if anything spills or it gets a little wet, it’s super easy to just wipe clean. It still looks brand new after using it regularly. The design is simple but very stylish, which makes it easy to pair with almost any outfit. I’ve worn it casually, out running errands, and even with more dressed-up looks, and it always works. It’s definitely one of those go-to bags you can grab every day. This bag is a great mix of style, functionality, and durability. I’m really impressed with it and would definitely recommend it if you’re looking for a cute, everyday handbag!

Perfect Everyday Bag That Goes with Everything
This purse is everything! I love the size, the material, and the fact that it has the perfect amount of compartments to keep everything organized without feeling bulky. It’s officially become my everyday bag. The strap is the perfect length and feels really sturdy. It’s cute enough for casual days but also works for going out to dinner, which I love. I’m always looking for something versatile since I don’t like switching bags all the time, and this one checks all the boxes. The zipper is smooth and feels durable, not flimsy at all. Overall, it feels well made, looks great, and holds up to daily use. Definitely a great find!

Versatile, Elegant, Looks Expensive
Color: Black, Color: Black
I purchased this purse in black and tan, and love them the both. The tan is a true tan (my pic makes it look whiter/lighter); the black is a rich, deep black. The gold hardware is a gilded gold, not brassy gold and looks expensive. I added purse extenders (gold balls on the tan and black hearts on the black) that I purchased separately on Amazon to personalize the look, and am even more in love. The purses themselves are high quality pebbled leather, lined with a deep zippered side pocket on the inside. The zippers zip smoothly and easily. The hardware clasps of the crossbody chain seem sturdy and can be removed or altered easily, allowing for a variety of styles and looks. The crossbody chain lays flat and doesn’t tangle snag, kink, or pinch when worn. I am pleasantly surprised with the overall quality given the incredible price. I highly recommend this purse for its elegance, versatility, and quality.
