A good selection of plants and just what I was looking for. They were despatched quickly but due to a problem with the courier I had to wait longer than expected for them. That was disappointing. Overall customer service was good. More care needs to be taken by the courier service as when the plants did arrive the box was on its side at the back of the van.

I ordered this plant well in advance of an Anniversary and requested it be delivered as close as possible to the day. This happened and the recipients appear to be very happy with the plant.

Four really well packed large plants arrived in one box with only one leaf lost! The order was a bit delayed but only because they were awaiting better quality stock. Good prices too considering other online plant companies.

I purchased a Lucky Bamboo plant and when it arrived the plant was in absolutely great condition. Even better than I had originally anticipated. However, the pot the plant came in was broken despite the protective package. It's most probable that the pot was broken whilst in transit.Upon contacting Customer Services, the representative was friendly, efficient and prompt in resolving the issue.Therefore, I will definitely be making further purchases and would highly recommend Oxy - Plants.

It’s the first time I’ve bought something from this website. The price was competitive compared to other sites so I decided to give them a try. The plants arrived well packaged, as tall as expected and in great condition. Very pleased with my purchase thank you!
Plants delivered increadibly promptly and were exactly as pictures depicted in the website. Helpful customer service as well; to help decide which pot or plant could be more appropriate.

Fast premium delivery, hassle-free ordering, accepted PayPal (which is a bonus as I don't like spreading card details around unnecessarily), good email updates and tracking, and the item received was as described and effective for the purpose. 5 stars :)

How To Care For Snake Plant

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.
