Dividing a large Sansevieria (Dracaena) aka Snake Plant into multiple plants and then repotting all the pieces! Propagating a Snake Plant by root/rhizome division.
I got this plant in a 10” nursery pot and decided to turn it into a versatile set of plants that can be used as a plant wall. Snake Plants are the best!!
TIMECODES:

Have you repotted a big snake plant like this (or any other REALLY BIG PLANTS)? Link your videos in the comments, I'd love to see your process for doing snake plant repottings :D
Thank you so much to anybody who has taken the time to watch this! Cheers to making new plant friends :)

In the office at work there is this beautiful display on top of one of our lower cabinets, the planter on top is about five x three feet, the middle is a tall wall of snakes and the outside edges are some fairly young golden pothos. I let the building manager know that if they ever prune any of it to please give me a call

Omg FINALLY a snake plant repotting video that is straight to the point and actually useful!! Can you please tell me what type of soil you used :)

@reallybigplant 3 года назад

Ahh thanks for the support- so glad you liked the video!!😭💕✨ I used a very coarse potting mix with mostly peat moss, fir bark, sand, pumice or some kind of tiny rocks, and perlite. For snake plants I’m not too picky and will use any potting mix that’s listed for indoor plants, but you could also use a bonsai or cactus mix for even better drainage. Hope this helps! ☺️

Good point, i had a rhizome literally break out of the side of its plastic pot, grew out sideways almost a foot long before i noticed it 😂

@herpiggy4857 Год назад

I loved this video as I am a beginning Snake Plant enthusiast. My question is two part: (1) When you replanted these did you water them and (2) when you do water them can you approximate about how much water you put in each planter. I am especially concerned about overwatering since there were no drainage holes.

@aliesefitch1099 3 года назад

Omg totally adding this to my "really want to do list"!! 😍 Also, I love how you showed us the roots and didn't speed or cut out that part of the repotting. It's my favorite part!

@mbaryol 2 года назад

Oh my gosh! You solved my dilemma! I was trying to find a 76 inch long by 6 inch wide by 6+ inch tall galvanized planter that I could set in a wall opening between the living room and the hall in my mid century 1953 home. This solves it! I will set a bunch of square containers and run some wire from one side to the other on the hall side and then on the living room side to keep them from falling if anybody should happen to touch them. I actually have some glazed metal square containers I’ve had for many years and never knew what to do with. You’ve solved my problem and got me to use something that’s been sitting around for a long time. Thank you so so so so much. 👍🏼

Hay did you know that you could shorten yiu video by not telling the viewer about the week later nor the same clothes part aa we would never know. By doing this it aaves on your content time as well.

I am encouraging you to post more of the same topic on houseplants as this is really neat.

@MrMikey1273 3 года назад

This was the best video for what I want to do. I am looking to combine some of these I've had for a while that are the more plane green with some that have yellow and green leaves I just got. Unfortunately I killed part of the old plant by over watering a few months ago so the large pot is empty and probably needs soil with more drainage. So this should help me divide and rearrange them together. Now off to the garden store.
