Sansevieria variegata

#1

Post by Agave Down Under »

I have started to get into Sansevieria's, slowly building a small collection,
Recently i got a Sansevieria Masoniana Variegated, quite happy with it, the variegation was awesome!
The middle San's was the original and the two side pups popped up about a month or so later!
Would it be better to separate/divide or put in larger pot when they grow more?

Very nice! I would provide a larger diameter pot allowing more room for it to spread further, since the rhizome propagates have already reached the edge of the pot. I wouldn't go too big too fast, as then watering may become more problematic, since too much volume of soil compared to the plant would possibly keep the soil wet too long, and they do need good drainage, and don't like soggy soil. It's up to you whether you want to divide instead, in order to get more separated plants growing. If you like the look of several leaves growing together, then leave them together.

I'd say those are pretty fancy, and very nice!
