*1. Light Requirements

Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light.Avoid prolonged direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.

*2. Watering

Water only when the soil is completely dry—typically every 2-3 weeks.Reduce watering during winter (once a month is often enough).Avoid overwatering, as Sansevieria is highly prone to root rot.

*3. Soil & Potting

Use a well-draining soil mix, such as a cactus or succulent mix.Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.Terracotta pots are best since they help wick away excess moistures

*5. Fertilization

Feed with a diluted succulent fertilizer every 2-3 months during spring and summer.Do not over-fertilize, as these plants grow slowly.

*6. Propagation

Can be propagated via leaf cuttings or rhizome division.Leaf cuttings should be left to dry for a day before planting in dry soil.

*7. Common Problems & Solutions

Curling or Wrinkled Leaves → Likely due to underwatering or root issues. Check the roots and adjust watering.

Yellowing Leaves → Overwatering or poor drainage. Let the soil dry out completely before watering again.

Soft, Mushy Base → Root rot—remove affected parts and repot in fresh, dry soil.

Leaves Losing Variegation →Could be due to low light. Move to a brighter location.
