My snake plant will be better! ...when it grows up a little more.

I've had that plant in the past. I don't know the real name of it, but a guest at a party one time refered to it as a "mother-in-law tongue". I've always liked those and would like to replace the ones I lost.

You can use these to grow clean air:

Hogwallop - that TED talk is actually why I bought my snake plants months ago!

It is a pretty plant.
