Growing Conditions
Sayuri’s beautiful foliage can reach up to a few feet high under ideal conditions, but in the home or office it tends to stay relatively compact. Sansevieria grows best at room temperature and lower humidity levels, and prefers to be watered sparingly. This Snake Plant is able to tolerate low light conditions but the leaves will be more vibrant under moderate light. Containers can be moved outside during warmer weather but the plant isn’t winter hardy below zone 10.
Sansevieria can be propagated via leaf cuttings or division. It also seems to grow best under rootbound conditions so we don’t recommend repotting unless the plant has completely outgrown the container. When repotting, move to a pot only an inch or two larger with well draining soil mix.
