Sansevieria bagamoyensis is a succulent plant native to Tanzania and the surrounding region in East Africa.
Description
Sansevieria bagamoyensis grows long stems (over 60cm), with slender, flat, succulent leaves.
It very closely resembles the related Sansevieria arborescens, which has wider, more flexible leaves. The leaves of S. bagamoyensis are narrower (under 16 mm) and more brittle.[1][2]
