We know that Sansevieria plants are one of the easiest houseplants to care for. They are the perfect indoor plants for beginners because they are easy to care for and almost un-killable. Almost… That's because you can still kill a snake plant...Confession, I have killed a snake plant before... In today’s video I’ll share with you some of the ways to kill your snake plants so you can hopefully you can avoid the same mistake I made. We’ll also propagate the Zeylanica and Whale Fin through the division and water method. Enjoy

I love snake plants now... I used to look down on them as though they were the McDonald's fast food of the plant world... but have great appreciation for them now. One propagation tip that has helped me which I believe has made a difference. I find I have much better success rate and faster root development if I let the cuttings heal for a week before putting in water or soil. When I put them straight into water, many times the cut will get soft and start to rot. It takes some patience but I think it's worth letting the cut dry out a few days.

@kgktan 2 года назад

I was like you too,but now I have found out that it's such an easy going plant and refreshes the air in your home, I begin to appreciate it.

@vuedanto8576 2 года назад

Thick leaved plants need to heal before being planted, if not then they will absorb the moisture and become soft and mushy and rot.

Sansevieria should be called friendship plant. I end up giving away so many to my friends through propagation and mainly diversion. They keep making babies!!

Perfect timing for this video…I just bought a medium size Sansevieria that was literally busting out of its pot with a new 2-leaf baby the same size...Now I know where to cut, and not to be afraid to cut! I refuse to call them snake plants because I have a phobia about snakes. 😳 They will always be Sansevieria to me. I also have a large Mother-in-Law’s Tongue. I do love all plants that only need to be watered once a month! Thanks again! 💕

Thank you so much for admitting a snake plant can be killed!! I have the toughest time with them b/c I can't seem to read the signs...are they thirsty or not? I think I've killed a number of them from severly underwatering them and one from over-watering. And let's not talk about propagating them....I've NEVER been successful. I can't wait to finish this video so I can hopefully learn something today & figure out why people say they're so "easy" to care for.🤦🏽‍♀️

I’ve killed one before, when I was first getting into plants. Right before they took over my life lol. After that I was nervous about them in a way. Now I have 4 different ones in my house that are doing great and are so easy to care for. SNAKE PLANTS ARE THE BEST, I love them so much now and will try propagating to make even more! Great videos, very informative 💚

@CrazyPlantGuy 4 года назад

That’s awesome. I think to really get to know them and like most plants, you’ll have to go through the rough times like overwatering...but eventually you’ll learn from the experience so that your future plants can thrive. Love snake plants too, I just got me a moonshine

Great video! I have learned over the years that SnakePlants do not like to be waters often. I too precise a Whale Fin that had a twin growing and separated it right away. Within a year, both plants have me a baby. So now I have 4. Will probably give one to my friend.

@BrittanyMarie27 3 года назад

@@Patricia-uu6wo I’m fairly new to propagating too. But all I did was stick it into the soil and watered it every time the soil dried out. They need more water when they’re just a cutting. As soon as a baby pops up you can water less like how you’d normally water a snake plant. But you don’t need to cover it. Just put it in a place that gets a lot of light

@bluemoon3699 4 года назад

I was at Walmart and I saw this 4" snake plant. It wasn't even in a pot. It was laying there roots all out waiting to die. I used to work there and I know they would throw it away. So I picked it up shoved it back into it's pot & bought it. When I got home I transplanted it. I named it "Lucky" cause it's lucky to be alive. It is very happy now. It has grown 2" & had a baby.

Crossed fingers and hoping to get some roots before it starts getting cold. End up having 5 new/old plants plus discovered 4 new pups too!

Nice! My favorite Classic house plant. Sans were known as the ‘bedroom’ or living room plant cuz they put off oxygen at night. All plants are basically air cleaning.. but the best are young fast growing plants. A Giant old plant looks good for decor but for air cleaning it’s better to have a few smaller young plants that are fast growing. 🌱

@amyahdocq8835 2 года назад

I am a Sanseviera and Hoya and orchid cactuses lover. I went to a nursery one day and they had a Whale Fin they were about to toss as she had a big circle of dry leaf in the middle as it froze during transportation. I got it for almost nothing... to thank me for saving her from the garbage can, she gave me a "baby" few weeks after... not she is about 2.5' high... in less than a year... a real beauty. I also have (besides 5 more species) a Moonshine that I have to separate as she is bursting her pot... I think I have something like 10-12 babies in it. I have Sanseviera for ever since my mom gave me one of hers when I was young and I never lost one... yet... when I moved very far away 25 years ago I had to give all my plants 😪 ... my Sanseviera was giganormous... I was heart broken to give them away but I was not able to bring them with me, sadly. I love your videos... and your cat 😊

I love just the one leaf look in the corner of my kitchen counter. I have under cabinet led lights. After around 3 or months I noticed tiny roots starting to form. It now has multiple 3” roots so figured I’m going to pot it up. I’m afraid if I don’t it will die. Thanks for the great tutorial. Just subscribed and looking forward to seeing more videos. 👍🏼🥰

I also found some other types in the street and they're alive too. Maybe it's because where I live or something and I also don't have strong winter at all here in the part of Brazil where I live 😊

When I put a prop directly in water I definitely killed it. Started rotting, turned to mush. So that went into the trash. The good part of the leaf I cut up into smaller pieces like you did, let it callous over before water propagating, and I left it out for a good week before I put them in water! But now, two months or so later, I have roots! It's definitely exciting!

I have successfully soil propagated leaf segments, and like water prop, it took forever! I started it in August, and didn't get any signs of growth for at least 6 months. Just kept the soil moist-ish, and as long as the segments looked normal and nothing was rotting, I left it alone. Now I have three new leaf spikes that are probably 8" high and getting taller by the day!

I definitely killed one when I was a new plant mom, overwatering,wintertime,then when it started looking bad I fertilized. It was quite painful to watch...😖

Wow...yikes😅, it does sounds like a perfect storm to kill your plant. I can imagine how painful that was to watch 😬

Hi I am from India. Always watch your video. I like it. Very informative with high speed. I usually propagate Snake plant through division or leaf cutting . Both are eásy.. leaf cutting grew faster in a wet soil in dark condition. Love your plants and green planters it looks very beautiful. Bye...

@CrazyPlantGuy 4 года назад

Thank you. I’m going to put my leaf cutting in soil, it seems to be a better method than water. Thanks for sharing

Try the dirt propagation method. I spent like 3 months with eating for cuttings to grow in water,in good lighting ,and good temperature, but nothing. I decided to stick them in dirt instead. I'm happy to say,they've started rooting. It's been maybe a month or 3 weeks .

Hey Christian I was wondering is there a way to fix sun burn leaves or cut them off? And how long does it take to grow a snake plant from propagate?

@Jaytee0008 3 года назад

I have the same question 😩

@zepppac3602 2 года назад

you can put all the sansiveria types in places where they do not see direct sunshine anytime ? or they need the friendly morning or late afternoon DIRECT sun on them?

@fignewton0000 3 года назад

Can I cut a leaf that has developed a brown spot in the center of the leaf or should I do a full division and repotting? My drac. whitney has like 3 brown spots on the same plant and the spots feel wet to the touch (so I try not to touch them)

I just bought a Moonshine today that was basically bursting out of its 5 inch pot. It already produced 2 pups and from what I could tell from just looking at it, it was made out of 4 initial cuttings crammed together into this tiny pot. When I got home I figured I'd let it acclimate to my room a little bit before I divide it, but I ended up dividing it immidiately, because I noticed some weird white powder leaking out of the bottom of the pot. I got a little concerned, cuz the good old internet told me it was a fungus, so I thoroughly washed the plant and treated it with some organic pesticides to prevent any infection and pest attacking it after the whole process. Anyways, in the end, I got 6 Moonshines for 10€ total with another tiny pup already in the making!
