I have a lot of different varieties since I am lucky to be living near a world authority on Sansevieria, who is always happy to share. Smiling

There is no way I can answer that question. He keeps his secrets very close and who can blame him.

I am one of the very few people who know where he lives, and are allowed to visit. His collection is truly amazing, as you would expect from someone who has been growing and researching these plants all his life.
