cylindrica

Recognized for its bold, spear-like form, Sansevieria cylindrica—also called Spear Sansevieria or African Spear—is a succulent native to Angola. Its smooth, cylindrical leaves grow upright like green lances, forming sculptural clusters that embody strength and simplicity. Unlike the flat-leaved species, cylindrica is defined by its architectural silhouette and slow, steady growth, making it both a resilient houseplant and a living piece of design within the broader Sansevieria family.

Praised for its resilience, Sansevieria cylindrica thrives on neglect, tolerating low light, irregular watering, and extended dry periods. Across cultures, Sansevierias have long symbolized protection, good fortune, and endurance, valued not only for their hardy nature but also for their ability to improve indoor air. Today, cylindrica remains a timeless favorite—adaptable, elegant, and equally at home in contemporary interiors and traditional collections.
