I ordered an artificial bonsai for my son who fails to keep real plants alive. It arrived in time and was so beautifully packaged I did think for a moment that I'd made a mistake and bought a real one! He is delighted with it. I wouldn't hesitate to order again.

I ordered a Kentia Palm from Oxy-Plants. I chose Oxy because they were by fair the best value for money and the most efficient in processing and delivering my new plant baby. I ordered on the Thursday and it arrives on the Monday.I was half expecting the plant to be dehydrated or lost its zest for life. HOWEVER, I couldn't have been more wrong; dark healthy green leaves, beautiful shape to the body of the plant and all planted in a fairly moist post of potting compost.Wrll done Oxy, you've got a customer for life in me now! 😁

Very quick with responding to any problems, plants arrived healthy and well packed, unfortunately one large pot was broken in transit, but this was very quickly sorted out by Marika and a new pot sent out, I would highly recommend oxy plants.

It's the first time that I shopped for indoor plants at Oxy-Plants and I'm thrilled with my purchase . Both the money tree and kentia palm arrived in a huge box, very well packed. They even arranged the delivery for my preferred day. The plants look strong and healthy and they were very well priced as well. Highly recommend this very friendly small business!

How To Care For Snake Plant “Black Coral”

Don’t overwater. Too much water is the snake plant’s weakness. Place in a well-drained plant pot to avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot. Only water the soil when it’s completely dry.

Indirect sunlight is best. Partial sun works best for snake plants. Though, it can still grow in darker corners or in brighter window areas. If completely shaded, the plant can dull and the leaves may become a bit floppy.

Perhaps one of the most popular reasons people include snake plants in their decor is that they’re low maintenance, requiring little attention to grow. They’re resilient, hardy plants and can survive in relatively dry environments, both indoors and ou

Keep in well-draining, sandy soil. Avoid using peat-based compost and opt for a cactus based mix, if you’re looking for a ready-mixed potting medium.

Really not necessary but you can opt to use a weak cactus fertiliser during spring and summer. Don’t fertilise in winter.

If using fertiliser is new to you, read our “How to Fertilise Your Houseplant” page!

Snake plants shouldn’t really be affected by pests and diseases, but if you have an infestation already in the house, make sure you move it away and treat it with neem oil if necessary.

If you think your plant is suffering from a pest or disease, take a look at our Pests and Infections page!

Choose a sturdy pot when repotting and be gentle with the roots. You can easily propagate your snake plant by division when repotting. Make sure you use fresh, sandy compost when repotting your snake plant.

Wondering how to repot your houseplant? Take a look at our repotting guide. It has all the information you’ll need!
