If you’d rather not run into snakes in your garden, it’s smart to avoid certain plants that create ideal hiding spots. While these plants don’t lure snakes like flowers do bees, they offer dense cover, cool shade, and moisture—perfect conditions for reptiles.
Plants like jasmine, ivy, lemongrass, and pampas grass provide thick, shady areas where snakes feel safe. Others, such as bird of paradise, aloe vera, banana plants, and cypress trees, retain moisture and attract prey like insects and rodents. Even innocent-looking plants like sunflowers can draw snakes due to seed fallout and close ground cover.
