Sometimes mislabeled online, Sansevieria 'African Spears' is NOT a variety of Sanseveria cylindrica. Sansevieria 'African Spears' is its own separate species and unlike cylindrica can reach mature heights of over 8 feet! [See last photo for example of mature plants]

Another incredible fact about this rarely offered Sansevieria, in the early 1900's the military was testing the potential use of the fibers harvested from this Sansevieria to produce bulletproof vests! The testing was a success and the bulletproof vests actually worked, but shortly after due to the invention of Teflon and the ease of mass-production with this new synthetic material, the Sansevieria bulletproof vests were discontinued. #EveryPlantHasAStory


Sansevieria are known for being a GREAT house plant. Commonly referred to as Snake Plant. Within the average house environment, Sansevieria only need to be watered every other week or so.  Be sure the soil is almost entirely dry before fully watering the plant again, only water at the soil level. They don't mind stagnant air, which lends to their ease in home environments.  They do well in a moderately wide range of lighting conditions but they enjoy moderate lighting the most.  They don't mind the heat either. 

Note to customer: Some of the older leaves may have slight scarring or blemishes develop in transit, this is purely cosmetic and in no way affects the health of the plant.

Sturdy disposable plates that handle real meals without getting soggy
Color: Brown, Size: 9 in - 75 count, Color: Brown, Size: 9 in - 75 count
These 9-inch compostable plates are a great option when you want the convenience of disposable plates without the flimsy feel of standard paper ones. The bagasse material gives them a much sturdier structure, so they hold up well even with heavier foods. What I noticed right away is that they do not bend or soak through easily. Foods with sauces, oils, or moisture sit on the plate without making it soft or soggy. Plates made from sugarcane fiber are designed to resist grease and liquids better than typical paper plates while still being biodegradable.  The 9-inch size works well for full meals, not just snacks. I have used them for things like pasta, barbecue, and salads, and they held up without needing to double stack plates. They also have a nice natural brown look that works well for casual gatherings, cookouts, or parties. Another plus is the eco-friendly aspect. Bagasse plates are made from leftover sugarcane fibers, which makes them a renewable alternative to plastic or foam disposable plates.  It is nice to have something convenient that is also a little better for the environment. Overall these are sturdy, practical disposable plates that actually feel durable enough for real meals. Great for parties, family gatherings, picnics, or anytime you want easy cleanup without using flimsy plates.

ACTUALLY heavy duty
Color: Brown, Size: 9 in - 75 count
These plates are actually better than I expected. I’ve used a lot of disposable plates that claim to be “heavy duty” and then immediately start bending the second you put real food on them, but these feel sturdier than the average cheap paper plate. The 9-inch size is a good everyday size too, big enough for a normal meal without feeling tiny, and I like the natural brown color because it looks a little nicer and less flimsy than plain white party plates. For cookouts, birthdays, quick dinners, or anything where I just do not want extra dishes, these have been really convenient. What I like most is that they feel substantial without being overly thick or bulky. They hold up better than the thin paper plates that get soggy fast, and that matters a lot when there’s anything heavier or messier on them. I also like having a bigger pack on hand because disposable plates are one of those things that disappear faster than you think, especially with kids, parties, or just busy weeks. The compostable part is a nice bonus, but honestly what matters most to me is that they actually do the job and don’t feel like they’re going to fold in half in my hand.

Great Value and Very Durable Plates
Color: Brown, Size: 10 in - 75 count
These plates are a great value for the price considering the quantity and the quality you get. Getting 75 plates at this price point is already a win, but the durability makes them even better. They’re biodegradable, which is a nice bonus, and they’re definitely not flimsy. These plates are stiff and sturdy — I can load them up with a pretty heavy plate of food and they still hold up without bending. They also do really well in the microwave, which makes them even more convenient for everyday use or parties. Overall, a really solid disposable plate option that’s durable, eco-friendly, and a great value.

A bit iffy on these plates
Color: Brown, Size: 9 in - 75 count, Color: Brown, Size: 9 in - 75 count
These plates are ok, but certainly not the best I've found. On the positive side, they are what I'd consider "Lunch Size" an are somewhat sturdy. They'll hold a sandwich and chips with little effort so, as a plate, they do... plate. Where I am a bit hesitant is in their molding an construction. You can see in my photos that there is significant staining/watermarking on the plates from the manufacturing process. This could be simply from the way the wet pulp was extruded and formed, but it honestly gives me a bit of the ick. Not that it's particularly gross, but it does make me wonder how sanitary the plates are or what binders might be leeching into my food. In my last photo, you can see a comparison to a compostable plate that I really like. The finish is cleaner and the mold included an inner ridge which gives the plate more stability - making it less likely to flex under weight. Both are sugar cane fiber plates and my preferred plate is a few dollars more expensive for a comparable pack, but the clean appearance and extra rigidity make it worth the added spend in my opinion. Ranking these 3-stars might lead some to think they're bad - and to be clear, I don't think they are. They're just adequate. If you're looking to save a few bucks on a compostable plate, these WILL get the job done. I would just shy away from using them with wet or acidic foods since they don't boast the highest quality of manufacture.
