The Cuban Green Anole - Anolis porcatus - is a species of Anole lizard that is native to Cuba, but has also been introduced to Florida, Hispaniola, São Paulo, and Tenerife. There doesn't appear to be much information about this lovely little lizard, so all I can say is that whilst walking along a trail in Guardalavaca, Cuba, I spotted movement in a clump of wild Sansevieria trifasciata (Mother-In-Law's-Tongue) and found this little creature clinging to a leaf and looking here and there for insects. I managed a couple of quick shots and, just after this one was taken, it jumped up to catch its prey and disappeared into the succulent leaves. A lovely, and lucky, sight to see.

I remember walking into the entrance ways of old homes in Richmond, Virginia when I was growing up. There were always pots of striped Snake Plants growing there in next to no light. I never saw those half-starved creatures flower, but when I moved to Miami, it was a whole new story.
In honor of those memories, I gathered up and dragged home Snake Plants a neighbor had thrown away and planted them along my new driveway, not knowing how quickly they would fill every available space and send their carrot-like roots up and over the concrete making the driveway ever smaller each year.
Despite the effort it takes to keep them in check, I am regularly rewarded with the beauty of their subtle delicate white flowers, filaments curling like tiny ribbons to proclaim the location of Snake Plant pollen to visiting bees.
Snake Plant, Mother-in-Law's Tongue
Sansevieria trifasciata
Biscayne Park, FL
Sansevieria trifasciata, also called viper's bowstring hemp, snake plant, mother-in-law's tongue or Saint George's sword (in Brazil) is a species of flowering plant in the family Asparagaceae, native to tropical West Africa from Nigeria east to the Congo. The NASA Clean Air Study found S. trifasciata has excellent air purification qualities, removing 4 of the 5 main toxins in the test. It is also one of the few plants which produce oxygen at night.
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 28–35 in long and 2.0–2.5 in wide. The specific epithet trifasciata means "three bundles".
It is commonly called the snake plant because of the shape of its leaves, or mother-in-law's tongue because of their sharpness. In China, it is known as hǔwěilán (虎尾兰, tiger's tail orchid). In Japan, it is called tiger's tail (とらのお). In Turkey it is known as Paşa Kılıcı (pasha sword). A yellow-tipped variant is associated with Oya, the female orisha of storms. In Africa, the plant is used as a protective charm against evil or bewitchment. In Nigeria it is commonly linked with Ogoun, the Orisha of war, and is used in rituals to remove the evil eye. In Brazil it is commonly known as espada de São Jorge (sword of Saint George) who by syncretism is also associated with Ogoun.
Like some other members of its genus, S. trifasciata yields bowstring hemp, a strong plant fiber once used to make bowstrings. It is now used predominantly as an ornamental plant, outdoors in warmer climates, and indoors as a houseplant in cooler climates. It is popular as a houseplant because it is tolerant of low light levels and irregular watering; during winter it needs only one watering every couple of months. It will rot if overwatered.

Snake Plant, Mother-in-Law's Tongue
Sansevieria trifasciata
Entdeckung am Abend.... am nächsten Morgen sind sie verblüht. In der Nacht verströmen sie einen ganz eigenen zarten und nicht unangenehmen Duft.
Die Triebe blühen nur ein einziges Mal, dann leben sie aber noch ein paar Jahre, anders als die Agave, die dann stirbt.

When we moved house a few years a go, we accidentally left behind a huge sansevieria trifasciata, also known as snake plant or mother-in-law's tongue. I prefer the latter name :-) Anyway, at some point, me being the thoughtful husband bought a replacement that will grow over time. My daughter always one to out do me, bought the monster of a plan in the second shot. She had to put it on the floor of her Mini and strap it in. I don’t think it would fit in there any longer without the sunroof open. With that said, my mother-in-law never had an unkind word.
Table holds up a Snake plant - Sansevieria trifasciata - in a big plant pot at a friends home in Carmel,NY.
Am used to seeing this as a potted plant (we have some from my grandmother's apartment that are older than I am). Guess that's where nonnative species come from! 'Iao Valley State Monument, Maui.
Are a Snake plant (Sansevieria trifasciata), several Christmas cactus (Schlumbergera), a Kalanchoe (Kalanchoe blossfeldiana) plant and a Jade plant (Crassula ovata). This was at the Putnam Hospital Center in Carmel,NY.

( Until 2017, it was known under the synonym Sansevieria trifasciata.)
The 5th century B.C. is considered the golden age of ancient Athens in Greece. Art and architecture flourished. Recent excavations show that science came to a highlight as well. Archeologists found on the mountain Hymetos near Athens the remains of a colossal biological experiment, comparable to the Biosphere 2 in Oracle, Arizona. A large circular wall with a diameter of 750 meters, consisting of ionic columns and other ornaments popular in that age, was designed to support an enormous dome, in order to shield off the complete area from the environment. Inside, the Greek created different biomes to run biological experiments under different living circumstances.
Here, we see a 3,000,000 mm² large biome for testing the growth of sansevierias in a subtropical environment.

I brought my Sansevieria Trifasciata [Mother-in-Law's Tongue] in last night [10/22]. It is now with lizard. If you are wondering, I escorted the lizard outside using a fly swatter to guide. I want him to have all the food he deserves.
Not only were all the great melaleucas dead except for a few with scraggly growth, but the entire region was deeply infested by this horrible weed, Sansevieria trifasciata. I spoke to the Cook Shire Environmental Officer about this and he said it was a continuing problem as it had been sprayed many times but was very hardy and resistant to even strong poisons and would regrow. It is disgraceful to think that this plant is sold as an ornamental in Australia. It is rubbish. Facts I dug up while searching:-
=======================================
Scientific Name: Sansevieria trifasciata Prain
Synonym: Sansevieria zeylanica
Family: Dracaenaceae (or included in Agavaceae)
Form: Herb
Origin: Native of tropical Africa. Zaire
Flowers/Seedhead: Inflorescence a spike of greenish-white fragrant flowers. Flowers 2.5–3 cm long, with petals and sepals joined at the base to form a tube about half as long as the flower; 6 stamens inserted in top of tube. Flowers spring and summer.
Description: Perennial succulent to 1 (rarely to 1.75) m high. Leaves 1–6 per plant, strap-like, 2.5–9 cm wide, apex sharp-pointed. Berry about 8 mm wide, containing 2 seeds. Seeds pale brown, oblong, about 6.5 mm long and about 5 mm wide.
Distinguishing features: Distinguished by presence of stolons; erect succulent fibrous leaves with greyish or light green bands and reddish, yellow or light green leaf margins; ovary above joined base of petals and sepals; fruit a berry ripening orange.
Dispersal: Spread by seed and stolons.
Growth Habits: Up to 4 feet tall (or usually around 1 metre when wild)
==========================================
It is a Potential weed species according to the Department of Environment and heritage. It has no history of being a weed outside of Australia. Department of Environment and heritage have listed it as having the potential of becoming an environmental weed in Australia.
It is listed as a weed in the following councils.
Brisbane city council
Lismore city council
Noosa Council
Grafton City Council
Sansevieria trifasciata is a perennial plant which reproduces from rhizomes. Native to west Africa it has naturalised in urban bushland around Brisbane and on nearby islands in Moreton Bay. It is widely planted as a garden ornamental and has probably been spread into new areas as a result of people dumping garden waste.
===========================================
Weeds and pest animals
Invasive plants, pest animals and ants have significant economic, environmental and social impacts on Queenslanders.
The Department of Primary Industries and Fisheries works closely in partnerships with local governments, communities and other stakeholders to minimise these impacts. Although the Queensland Govt has listed this among the 200 invasive weed species on its list, it is doing nothing about this problem at Finch Bay.
======================================================
Australian readers will relate to the next couple of comments taken from various discussion forums:-
[1]. I was shopping at Woolies the other day when I noticed they were selling Senseveria spp (mother-in-law's tongue). I was flabbergasted and asked to speak to the Manager about it. Of course he didn't know much about it, but I thought it might have been illegal to sell such pests under new State legislation...?
Anyway, I have seen such shocking pests being sold in a number of urban Woolies. It just goes to show that we need to be engaging them on this and a number of other "ethical" issues such as the Maleny debacle. What next? A McDonalds?
Kind regards,
Adam
