    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    The shape of S. francisii leaves and crossbanding are similar to Sansevieria suffruticosa. However, the leaves are longer and sharply pointed. The leaves stack in compact rows of five and it keeps adding more rows until they either flop over or send out stolons, or both. Looks great in a hanging basket in part shade.
