Each leaf is firm and waxy to the touch, tapering to a stiff point at the tip. Fabi Snake Plant stays on the compact side, typically reaching 12 to 24 inches tall, with leaves that are thicker and more densely packed than many standard Sansevieria trifasciata cultivars.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Growing_2961efa3-9828-496c-8a2c-fa57f0dd8914_480x480.png?v=1600399365\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e  Flowering on this cultivar is infrequent indoors and not reliably documented, so it is grown primarily for its foliage.

You can leave it up to ten days without water, useful for longer stretches away from home. Keep it on a high shelf or in a spot out of reach, as cats, dogs, and small children should not have access to the leaves or sap, which can cause irritation or harm if nibbled or ingested.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli id=\"tab2\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Sun_65296975-26d8-49a3-83b6-b7b0ed15ae73_480x480.png?v=1600397323\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Sun_65296975-26d8-49a3-83b6-b7b0ed15ae73_480x480.png?v=1600397323\" class=\"ls-is-cached lazyloaded\" alt=\"\"\u003e \u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e  Snake 'Fabi' Sansevieria grows well in low to bright indirect light, including standard office fluorescent and LED setups.

The base of the leaves may turn soft or yellow, and the roots will smell unpleasant when the pot is lifted.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How tall does Fabi Snake Plant get?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nA: It typically reaches between 12 and 24 inches tall indoors, staying on the more compact end of the Sansevieria trifasciata range.
