Dracaena (Sansevieria) trifasciata 'Laurentii'

Dracaena trifasciata 'Laurentii' is the familiar yellow-edged snake plant, with tall sword-shaped leaves rising in firm fans from the base. Each leaf has a deep green centre marked with softer grey-green horizontal banding, framed by clear yellow margins that make the leaf shape stand out even from a distance. The result is strong, recognisable and clear in a pot.

This cultivar brings height in a slim space. It grows from a rhizome, so new leaves appear as basal shoots beside the older fans. Over time, a young plant becomes a fuller clump as fresh leaves push up from the base and add more layers to the yellow-edged outline.

Classic yellow margins on tall sword leaves

  • Leaf shape: Tall, sword-like blades create a strong vertical line.
  • Colour contrast: Yellow margins frame the banded green centre of each leaf.
  • Growth base: The rhizome sends up new leaves beside older fans, gradually thickening the clump.
  • Indoor placement: It gives height while taking up limited floor or shelf space.
  • Longevity: Mature leaves stay firm for a long time when the root zone is kept warm, airy and dry between waterings.

Rhizome storage and dry intervals

Dracaena trifasciata is a rhizomatous species from seasonally dry tropical parts of Africa. 'Laurentii' stores water in thick leaves and depends on oxygen around the rhizome after watering. The plant handles dry intervals well because the leaves and underground structure are built for moisture storage.

'Laurentii' keeps the strong leaf form of the species and adds bright marginal colouring. The yellow edges are part of the cultivar’s visual identity, while the grey-green striping across the blade gives the centre more depth. Mature leaves can become tall and rigid, so the pot should be stable enough to balance the top growth.

Growth is usually slow indoors, especially in winter or away from bright windows. New shoots may appear narrow at first before expanding into stronger leaves. A slightly snug pot keeps the rhizome stable and lets the substrate dry at a predictable pace.

Care for tall yellow-edged leaves

  • Light: In bright indirect light, new leaves stay sturdier and the contrast remains clearer. In lower light, the plant grows more slowly and the pot needs longer drying time.
  • Watering: Wait until the potting mix has dried deeply, then water evenly and let the pot drain fully. The next watering should come after the lower mix has dried again.
  • Substrate: Use a free-draining mix with pumice, lava rock, coarse sand or fine bark. Mineral structure keeps air around the rhizome.
  • Pot choice: A pot with drainage holes and enough weight for tall leaves keeps the plant steady.
  • Temperature: Keep it in normal indoor warmth, ideally around 18–27 °C. Warm conditions help the root zone recover after watering.
  • Humidity: Average household humidity is sufficient.
  • Feeding: Use a diluted balanced or cactus fertiliser during active growth. Light feeding matches the plant’s slow rhizome growth.
  • Repotting: Repot when new shoots crowd the pot, the container starts to distort or the substrate has broken down. A modest size increase is enough.
  • Propagation: Division preserves the yellow-edged pattern. Leaf cuttings can root and may produce green plants.

Yellow-edge stress signs

  • Soft leaf bases: Inspect the substrate depth, cover pot and rhizome area. Softness near the soil line usually means the lower plant stayed damp for too long.
  • Wrinkled leaves: Check the root system before adding more water. Dryness and damaged roots can both produce a wrinkled leaf surface.
  • Brown margins: Review irregular watering, mineral buildup, old knocks and cold air exposure. Remove only the dry edge if trimming is needed.
  • Leaning leaves: Rotate the pot and check whether new shoots are pressing older leaves sideways. Mature plants may need a heavier pot for a steady base.
  • Paused growth: Growth often slows in winter. Check light and warmth first, then adjust feeding during active growth if needed.

Safety for shared spaces

Keep Dracaena trifasciata 'Laurentii' out of reach of pets and small children who may chew the leaves. Snake plants contain saponins, which can cause nausea, vomiting or diarrhoea in cats and dogs if ingested. The tall, firm leaves also need a secure spot where the pot stays steady.

Botanical name of the classic snake plant

The accepted botanical name for the species is Dracaena trifasciata, while Sansevieria trifasciata remains the older name still widely used in plant shops and care guides. The genus name Dracaena comes from the Greek drakaina, meaning “female dragon”, a name historically linked to red resin in some dragon tree relatives. The species epithet trifasciata means “three-banded” or “marked with three bands”, referring to the banded pattern associated with the species.

Dracaena trifasciata 'Laurentii' has tall green leaves, yellow margins and one of the most recognisable snake plant forms.

finding love after your heart crumbles
Format: Kindle
Tatum Ward is a waitress in her small town of Trove Hills, Illinois. She has a side gig of writing difficult texts for others who want to break up or quit their job or something equally difficult. She doesn’t charge people for that. She just enjoys writing, and at this point in her life, that’s all the writing she can accomplish. She lives in a cottage by her parents’ house, close enough to hear if something were to go wrong. And she is still dealing with the fact that she and her siblings have a secret brother they never knew about. Tatum’s father had admitted to an affair many years before, but he had just recently found out that it had resulted in a son, and now he wants the entire family to get together. Tatum is not ready for that. So when her favorite customer at the diner, June, gets dumped by a text that Tatum was asked to write, Tatum is devastated and apologized profusely. June is a fragrance designer who is about to travel to New York City for an important meeting about her perfumes, but she isn’t sure she can She was counting on her girlfriend for moral support. So Tatum pipes up and offers to go with her. Eleanor Chapman is a press agent for Broadway shows, and when she finds out that her occasional hookup just proposed to his girlfriend after 4 years, she sent a company-wide email congratulating him, since he’s a producer that they represent. But then Eleanor follows that up with a message to his new fiancé telling her about their relationship. Suddenly, Eleanor finds herself without a job and wanting to get out of town to clear her head. She asks on social media if anyone can watch her cats at her apartment in New York for a week, and June responds. Tatum offers up her cottage to Eleanor, and she and June can use her apartment in New York City and take care of the cats. When Eleanor comes to Trove Hills, she makes herself comfortable in Eleanor’s cottage. She is having a quiet evening with a bottle of wine and a book when she is interrupted by someone pounding on the door and asking Tatum to open up. When Eleanor doesn’t open the door, the person outside climbs in a window. And that’s how Eleanor met Carson, Tatum’s non-binary older sibling, covered in glitter. Carson apologizes for barging in, not realizing that Tatum had left town. But the attraction between Eleanor and Carson develops quickly. During the next week, the attraction between Carson and Eleanor heats up, and Tatum and June’s time in New York is productive. Tatum makes friends with one of Eleanor’s neighbors and finds herself missing her family and feeling guilty for skipping out on the reunion the way she had. And when she gets word that her sister broke her leg, Tatum heads back home on the next flight, putting her burgeoning relationship with June on hold. Back in Illinois, Eleanor decides it’s also time to head home, leaving Carson without saying anything. As everyone settles back into their lives, they all have to choose between going back to the unhappiness that caused them to make sudden life changes in the first place, or to run after the love they had found when they took chances. Anywhere You Go is a sweet rom com about upending your life and finding everything you didn’t realize you were missing. I really enjoyed this house-swap story. I thought the characters were well-rounded and interesting, and I loved the two settings. The addition of Dawn in New York added lots of fun, and the story of a secret brother of Tatum and Carson added a lot of texture to the family. I had a great time with Anywhere You Go. It was an amazing trip. Egalleys for Anywhere You Go were provided by Berkley through NetGalley, with many thanks, but the opinions are mine.

Meh

🌟Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ 💧Drip-o-Meter: 💦💧 💗Something I Loved: I really enjoyed the whole “two love stories in one” aspect. Marketed as a queer version of “The Holiday,” AYG follows Tatum and Eleanor (alternating every chapter) as they swap houses and ultimately, you guessed it, fall in love, all while discovering the place they truly belong. I definitely had more of an interest in Eleanor and Carson’s relationship than I did in Tatum and June’s, but that’s probably because Carson is my favorite type of character… real and complex but also funny and oh so charismatic. Where the other characters fell flat for me, Carson felt full of personality and depth. 🫤Something I Would Have Changed: Several things sadly. On top of some specific pet peeves (ugh insta-love), there were far too many subplots, most of which felt underdeveloped, and the ending somehow both drug on while also feeling very abrupt. 🥰Favorite Moment: Truthfully, there isn’t one that really stood out to me 🤷🏻‍♀️ 🌶️Spiciest Scene: Chapter 8… Eleanor and Carson’s first EncOUntEr *insert eyebrow wiggle*. Other than this scene, I’d classify the spice in this book as closed door/fade to black… and even though this one is “open,” it’s not overly spicy (but does have some good banter). 📚Standalone vs. Series: Standalone 📖Would I Recommend: I’m indifferent. I didn’t hate it but it was in no way a new favorite for me. I struggled to connect with all of the characters other than Carson and thought there was an overall lack of chemistry, especially between Tatum and June, that made it hard to even care if they ended up together. I don’t necessarily regret reading it but I’m sure I won’t remember a bit of it in a day or two and overall really just don’t have a lot of thoughts about it other than “meh.” 💬Tropes: Found Family, Small Town Romance and Big City Love, Dual Romance, House Swap, Queer (Lesbian x Non-Binary)

Two romances for the price of one!!
Format: Kindle
This was a really interesting book. Usually you only get a single romance, maybe some side character has a little something happen offpage. Not here. You get two complete romances for the price of one. Though the romances are interconnected and somewhat similar. Both Eleanor and Tatum don't believe they should have relationships...though for very different reasons. And they both overcome their fears and move forward with their love interests in similar fashion. Dawn was by far the best side character, and I loved her. I would honestly love to have a story of her finding love again, even at her age. She's just so fun. Eleanor and Carson are a fun pair. They bring out the fun and playful in her. She brings out the emotional depth in them. They really do make each other better, more complete people. They become close very quickly which ends up scaring Eleanor off. Tatum and June are adorable. They both obviously like each other, but Tatum is hung up on the idea that nothing will ever work because of how her family is, and June is trying to deal with being the kind of person who needs a relationship to feel safe and normal. They finally start to open up to each other and then mutually freak out a little causing hurt feelings. There is a third act breakup for each couple. They happen about the same time, and last for the same time in the book and chronologically which is a few months unfortunately. Overall it was a very light, fluffy story that is easy to fall into. There aren't really any truly explicit spicy scenes. There is the barest amount of spice and then it gets glossed over, so not truly fade to black either. I wasn't a fan of the whole 'NYC is so super fabulous and everyone should want to live there' kind of vibe parts of the book gave off, but that's more of a personal hangup of mine than anything else.

Feeling The Holiday inspiration
Format: Kindle, Format: Kindle
Tatum needs a quick escape from her small town life and the week of events planned to introduce her (and the rest of the family) to a surprise half brother, so she joins customer-who-she-won’t-let-herself-love June on a business trip to NYC Tatum is swapping homes with Eleanor, who needs an escape of her own from The City after of PR nightmare of a job - and situationship - loss throws her life into chaos. While she’s staying at Tatum’s, she meets her younger sibling and her attraction to them is both immediate and required. But are there feelings too? I think with any story that involves multiple relationships, you’re going to be interested in one over the other. For me, I was invested more in Eleanor and Carson. Their spontaneity and artistic sides of their jobs seemed to mesh well from the start. I’m still not sold on why Tatum and June shouldn’t have been together from the start, so it felt like I was waiting for them to catch up. My favorite side character would have to be aging former movie star Dawn, from Tatum and June’s storyline. I was cheering for her to get a second chance at the spotlight. I was happy for HEAs all around, especially when the couples have to overcome the issues of having existing lives in different places. I enjoy books like this when there’s an epilogue set later too, assuring those HEAs stick the landing!
