Sansevieria trifasciata 'Hahnii Swirls'



A very tiny form with a white central stripe in the leaf.

Juan Chahinian says in 'The Sansevieria trifasciata varieties':

"As of yet, not an isolated variety but beautiful and distinct enough to be worth mentioning, this unusual cultivar is close in looks to its parent plant S. t. 'Hahnii Streaker'.
The leaves have white centers, (not silvery), sometimes of creamy color on about the third of their width. The juvenile leaves strongly recurve to one side and they also recurve upwards. In this manner, the leaves are recurved in two directions with the added character of growing profusely and adopting a papery appearance.
Unfortunately new offsets revert to 'Streaker' and leaf cuttings produce, as expected, 'Hahnii' offsets."
