(Sansevieria trifasciata trifasciata)
It is an evergreen perennial plant forming dense stands, spreading by way of its creeping rhizome, which is sometimes above ground, sometimes underground. Its stiff leaves grow vertically from a basal rosette. Mature leaves are dark green with light gray-green cross-banding and usually range between 70-90 centimetres (28-35 in) long and 5-6 centimetres (2.0-2.4 in) wide. The specific epithet trifasciata means "three bundles"
