Hello Norma,
Good advise.
Stush

so does this grass-like sans have a name?
Laura

Laura,

I don't know that this would be the same as Norma's plant, but I see a listing on Bob Smoley's Gardenworld for a grassy looking sans. It's listed as sansevieria T. green Fountain.
Here's what it says:
Thin light green almost grass like leaves making a very attractive hanging basket in time. Only 8-10 inches tall. Hybrid by Alice Waidhoffer.

thanks bmock for the information. i might have Bob bring me one to our fall sale.

Its probably Sansevieria gracilis. I'd say you can find pictures of it on 'Google images'.

I'm growing something named gracilis and I wouldn't say it is "grass-like". Then again it might not be the "true" gracilis.

No Sansevieria is going to have the same flat blades as does grass - like in lawn grass - but gracilis is one of the the shortest sansevierias, and is light green (grass green) in color. Maybe you can post a picture here of your gracilis.

Also, I have a couple of different parvas that are grassy looking to me. They look similar to a spider plant.

I agree mine like it may have parva as paremt it grows like parva, and needs more water then a lot of my others. It sure is a messy grower it took me more then an hour to clean it up, it not going to ever be show quality. The leaves are more narrow then parva,and I have been told that parva grown by the spray of the falls. It started out as miniature. now it grows the same size as parva, which leaves to believe all the more that parva is the mother or father. Norma Lewis
