Sansevieria are one of the most rewarding, easy to grow, virtually pest free, home and patio plants available that seem to grow best when neglected. They add a wonderful accent to any desert garden or window sill.   You won't get field dug, bare root or immature plants. All our live Sansevieria plants are 2-7 year old and are extremely well established. Sansevierias come in the growers pot with the growers soil mix (NOT BARE ROOT), are very well packed and only mildly trimmed before shipping. There is NO waiting years for your new Sansevieria to establish itself, NO guessing if a bare root plant will survive the shock of division and transportation, NO having to plant immediately. Just keep the pot in a shady area and water when dry.   The care & culture info. below is a general guideline and may or may not work in your environment. Ideal use:  Border and independent desert garden, Containerized 6"- 20" diameter  10" deep pots.   POOR 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 EXCELLENT Hardiness Shipability Growth Rate Outdoor Zone  8 - 12 (see above)  Avoid frost. Height - Sansevieria vary drastically depending on species (see above). Recommended Container Size - Most gardeners don't realize that Sansevieria do very well in containers. Container size may vary depending on the growth rate of the plant. Allow enough room for growth generally a 6" to a 20" diameter, 10" deep container will do well. Water - Sansevieria must be treated like Cactus and water when nearly dry. Over watering will kill the plant. Light - 70-100% Sun - Morning to afternoon sun is best. When planting outside expect the plant to go dormant while acclimating to its new environment. Soil - Well drained, sandy Cactus mix.   Beautiful new plants appear summer to fall.

Space plants to allow clumps to form and develop properly. If planted too tightly there will not be enough room for root expansion and plants will not reach their full height potential. Basic Propagation: Offsets Below we divided 17 from one 6 in. pot. New plants come very well established w/ pot. Cut through the root mass to separate plantlets. Divide each plant and separate their roots. Start new plantlets with fresh well drained soil. Leaf Cutting Note: This is a very slow process and may take up to 6 months to get plantlets to appear, however it is an ideal means for propagating an exact duplicate of the mother plant. Cut leaves into 4-6 in. sections and allow the cut to callus for 2 days. Start new cuttings with fresh well drained soil. Don't water for 1 week. Roots should first appear in 1-3 months. Don't remove to check. New plants should appear anywhere from  5-7 months.  Sansevieria, also known as a "Snake Plant" or  "Mother-in-laws Tongue", makes an excellent addition to any interior or patio, as it is incredibly hardy and drought tolerant. You'll find the Sansevieria also requires little of your attention. It grows well in just about any environment and light conditions.
