I'd be happy to help you with caring for your Snake Plant Moonshine! The Snake Plant Moonshine, also known as Sansevieria trifasciata 'Moonshine', is a popular and low-maintenance houseplant. Here are some care tips for your Snake Plant Moonshine:

1. Light: Snake Plants can tolerate a wide range of light conditions, from low to bright indirect light. However, they prefer bright, indirect light for optimal growth. Place your Moonshine plant near a window where it can receive bright, filtered light.

2. Watering: Snake Plants are succulent plants and are quite drought-tolerant. It's best to allow the soil to dry out partially between waterings. Water your Moonshine plant when the top inch of soil feels dry. Be careful not to overwater, as this can lead to root rot. It's better to underwater than to overwater.

3. Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix for your Snake Plant Moonshine. A mix of regular potting soil and perlite or sand works well. Ensure that the pot has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.

4. Temperature and Humidity: Snake Plants are adaptable to different temperature ranges. They prefer temperatures between 60-85°F (15-29°C). They can tolerate lower temperatures, but avoid exposing them to frost. As for humidity, they can tolerate normal household humidity levels.

5. Fertilizing: Snake Plants are not heavy feeders and can thrive without frequent fertilization. You can fertilize your Moonshine plant with a balanced, diluted houseplant fertilizer once every few months during the growing season (spring and summer). Follow the instructions on the fertilizer package for the correct dilution ratio.

6. Pruning: Snake Plants are relatively low-maintenance when it comes to pruning. However, if you notice any dead or yellow leaves, you can trim them off at the base using clean, sharp pruning shears.

7. Toxicity: Keep in mind that Snake Plants are toxic to pets if ingested. It's best to keep them out of reach of curious pets or children.
