**Sansevieria Whale Fin Variegated Care Tips:**

1. **Light:**

   - The Sansevieria Whale Fin Variegated thrives in bright, indirect light. While it can tolerate lower light conditions, providing bright light will enhance its variegation and promote healthy growth. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.

2. **Soil:**

   - Use a well-draining potting mix for the Sansevieria Whale Fin Variegated. A mix specifically designed for succulents or cacti, containing ingredients like sand, perlite, and pumice, works well to ensure proper drainage and prevent waterlogging.

3. **Watering:**

   - Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Water the plant sparingly, as overwatering is a common issue with Sansevierias and can lead to root rot. Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent water from accumulating at the bottom.

4. **Humidity:**

   - This plant is adaptable to average indoor humidity levels. It does not require high humidity and will tolerate dry air. Avoid placing it in areas with excessive moisture or humidity, which can lead to fungal issues.

5. **Temperature:**

   - Keep the Sansevieria Whale Fin Variegated in a temperature range of 60-80°F (15-27°C). It is tolerant of a wide range of temperatures but should be protected from temperatures below 50°F (10°C) to avoid cold stress.

6. **Fertilization:**

   - Feed the plant with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer diluted to half strength once every 1-2 months during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding in the fall and winter when the plant’s growth slows.

7. **Maintenance:**

   - Sansevieria Whale Fin Variegated is low-maintenance. Wipe the leaves occasionally with a dry cloth to remove dust and maintain its appearance. Repot the plant every 2-3 years or when it becomes root-bound, using fresh, well-draining potting mix.
