What's up everyone? Welcome back to the epic gardening podcast. Today we are talking about the snake plant. This is a house plant also known as the mother-in-law's tongue which if you ask me is kind of a rude name for this plant, but we'll go with the snake

plant for the rest of this episode. Now this is a house plant that is immune to being killed.

So if you've never grown anything before in your life and you think you have a brown thumb,

grow a snake plant because it's basically as easy to care for as a rock.

Like there's really not a lot that you have to do here.

However, it is a neat plan.

It's very cool.

It has a cool look to it.

And so we'll run through a couple varieties first.

So the first one is San Severia Trifostiata black gold.

Black gold is just dark black on the interior of the leaves with a light sort of creamy gold tip that runs around the entire outside perimeter of the leaf.

You've also got black robusta, which the entire leaf is a dark brown black red sort of color.

Very neat to pot with a Trifasciaata black gold or another more standard variety to create a little

contrast. And then probably the most interesting one in my opinion is San Severia trifasiaia Cylindrica. So this is one that is a stark

departure from the rest of the snake plant species that I know of because the stems are completely round. It sort of looks like

bamboo steaks stuck in soil as opposed to the large wide thin and waxy leaves that most snake plants have.

So if you want to check that out then definitely do that's one that I really have my eyes on.

Finally the last one I'll look at is moonshine, the moonshine cultivar. It's kind of like an

albino cultivar. It's pure white with light green around the edges, so it's almost the

exact opposite of Robustao which is pure black.

So there are a couple varieties that you can consider if you can find those at your local nursery

maybe online definitely give those a look.
