As presently conceived by some collectors, Sansevieria ehrenbergii has a wide range that includes East Africa. We prefer to reserve the range of plants fitting this species to the Sudan, northern Ethiopia, and Yemen. This is a common, small-to-medium sized, prolifically offsetting species in the mountains of western Yemen. The leaves are yellow-green and stiff, and they tend to be held in a distichous rosette. These plants are rooted offsets in one-gallon pots.
