Actually, they are commonly called "Snake Plants".
Your mother mixed up the two names. There is nothing about the plant that is forked like a snake's tongue. Tracey wrote in message ... At least you didn't say "Mother's in Law Tongue"!!! Oh, yeah, probably because my mother always called those 'snake's tongue'...probably because we lived right across the road from her MIL/my grandmother and she didn't want us carrying *that* name across the road.

Or maybe it was intentional, a way to sneak 'mother-in-law tongue' in there without actually say it. Tracey |

Actually, actually, it's called mother in laws tongue because it is as big and
flapping long as many mothers in law. Not mine, of course. Ya. On Fri, 07 Mar 2003 21:01:59 GMT, "Cereoid+10+" wrote: Actually, they are commonly called "Snake Plants".

Can ya dig it? Right awn, right awn. BTW, I wrote my very intelligent answer before I saw the responses, so on the record I indeed did know the next line. I remember seeing the movie in the Lowes Theater on Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn when I was in the seventh grade. When we, (me and my girlfriend Marie) left the theater, we were peeking around corners holding our imagined guns. Wacka wacka! |

Sorry, I'm not a Muppet fan. I only watch Teletubbies. I love LaLa.

Sanseveria is desert looking to me and would contrast nicely with some
prickly pear-like. Also Many forms of cacti do well under intense artificial light, fluorescent arrays wouldn't work unless you want to bring out the plants for occasions, or raise the arrays, but two gas spot lamps tastefully (and horticulturally) placed among art suggestive of desert plants and landscape would allow a few cacti to be grown, while you could switch over to a yellow spot to entertain. Sandstone facing, I like this, but you have to be kind of martha-come-edison to pull it off. Norfolk Island pine could work with this mind-foil. TK |
