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.

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. :)

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.

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!

I thought Fozzy Bear went "wacka wacka"?

I guess he's a bad mutha as far as muppets go?

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.
