I’ve had a snake plant for about a year now and I’ve always been fascinated by them. I was curious about whether or not they liked sunlight so I did some research.
It turns out that snake plants actually prefer moderate to low light conditions. They will tolerate bright light but too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves. If you notice your snake plant’s leaves turning yellow or brown it’s a sign that it’s getting too much sun.
One of the reasons snake plants are so popular is because they’re very easy to care for. They’re very tolerant of neglect and can go weeks without water. When you do water them make sure to allow the soil to dry out completely between watering.
If you’re looking for a plant that’s low-maintenance and can tolerate a wide range of light conditions a snake plant is a great option.
