|---|---|
| Pronunciation | (san-se-VEER-ee-uh)(try-fask-ee-AH-tuh) |
| Plant Type | All Plants, Succulents |
| Hardiness Zone | 10 |
| Sunlight | bright to moderate to shade, will burn in direct |
| Moisture | Can go for long periods of time with out water, but prefers to be kept evenly moist to slightly dry. One time I forgot about 3 plants in the north window of a room, for 2 months. They never got watered and are still alive today. Not a recommended practice! |
| Soil & Site | average |
| Flowers | I have never seen this Sansevieria bloom. |
| Leaves | vase-shaped rosette of yellow and green leaves |
| Propagation | The easiest and most common way is by division. Just knock the plant out of the pot and divide into section. Most of the plants will root from partial leaf cuttings which is a leaf cut into sections and rooted. The draw back to this method is, if the plant is a sport (genetic variation) it will revert back to its parent plant. I have rooted Futura and Golden Snake plant from partial leaf cuttings and they both have reverted back to S. trifasciata. I have rooted S. trifascita and S. cylindica and they have come true from the partial leaf cutting |
