Sansevieria ‘Shark Fin’ is known for its bold, paddle-shaped leaf that mimics a shark’s fin or whale tail—standing upright with architectural elegance. Its mottled green patterning gives it visual depth, and its slow-growing, sculptural form adds instant drama to any indoor space. Ideal as a feature plant or low-maintenance accent piece.
