Just looked up the Sanseviera cylindrica and that's definitely it. Thanks
From what I'm reading I should be able to grow it inside this winter.
Got a spot all picked ot for it.

Since almost all but a few Indian species and two in Arabia and Madagascar
each are from Africa, that doesn't narrow it down at all.

There are several species with pointed cylindrical leaves. So that doesn't
help narrow it down either.

However, I suspect you have the very widely grown Sanseviera cylindrica.

It is just as easy to grow as the common Sansevieria trifasciata.

I got this at a garage sale today. The tag says African Sanseveria. I
have
done a google search but I can't find it anywhere. It's a beautiful
plant,
several thick spikes about 2inches in diameter and tapering to a point.
The
highest spike is about 3 feet tall and the spikes are ridged. I really
need
to know how to take care of it since it will be inside. The guy I
bought
it
from said it was in the Mother-in-law family

As usual any help is appreciated
