    We had to take the truck to be serviced this morning. It took three hours. We went across to WalMart after to get a new ink cartridge for the printer and of course, we bought a plant. dr calls it a gold banded snake plant. I call it Mother-in-law's tongue and the name on the tag is Sansevieria trifasciata or mother-in-laws tongue. This one is in a 6 inch pot and is about 15 inches high. I had one in Wisconsin that was about 4-5 ft tall but we couldn't bring it with us when we moved so I gave it to a friend. dooley

    Good looking plant Dooley. I had bunches of them when I lived in Florida they grew to be almost like hedges in some yards, down there they are called both Mother-in-law's tongue and Snake Plant
