Sansevieria Trifasciata Black Coral is a variety of snake plant with narrow leaves with vertically wide gray-green wavy horizontal bands on a dark green background.
The leaves are so dark when they first emerge that they almost appear black, and these younger leaves lack any of the bands that appear as the leaves age.
This cultivar plant is sometimes confused with an older Sansevieria Trifasciata variety called 'Black Gold', which should have a yellow margin that the Sansevieria Black Gold lacks.
Sansevieria Trifasciata is poisonous to dogs and cats (they can cause nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea), so you should keep it stay away from pets and children. Sansevierias are considered air purifiers because they filter some toxins from the air, and therefore, it is recommended to have them in offices, bedrooms or the living room.
