Bantel's Sensation is a snake plant with a tailored look: narrow, strictly upright leaves striped vertically in white against dark green, slimmer and more refined than the common broad-leaved form. It grows slowly to 2 to 3 feet and holds its architectural shape without any fuss.

It handles everything from low light to bright indirect, though stronger light keeps the white striping bold. Water only when the soil has dried fully, and less in winter; overwatering is the one reliable way to lose a snake plant. Average household humidity and temperatures suit it fine.
