You have the choice to adopt a Snake plant (Sansevieria Trifasciata) at home. Or, you buy it directly in a pot from us at best price and all you have to do is maintain it; or, you are embarking on a new hobby: gardening. If you have opted for the second option, here are some good things to know.
To begin with, you will need to choose the ideal location for the cultivation of your snake plant. Both outdoors and indoors, the ideal temperature standards, in order to guarantee the good development of the plant, remain the same: at least 10 ° C.
In addition, it is also worth emphasizing that the snake plant does not support very well a strong luminosity. It will therefore be necessary to find the right exposure for your plant. Indoors, it's more or less easy since you just have to hide the sun with curtains or shutters. Outdoors, the process is a little more complex. Generally, gardeners opt for a shaded area: next to a tree, flush with fences, etc.
In addition, the soil in which you are going to plant it must be carefully refined. A mixture of potting soil and sand will be necessary. The goal is to have a neutral acidity .
You should also choose the right time to start growing which will be in Spring. The climate is suitable for planting snake plants and guarantees a development within the standards of your plant. It will then be enough to create a furrow where you will put the leaf cuttings.
The space required for successful planting of snake plants varies from case to case. It all depends in particular on the density you want to have in your garden. Just remember to reserve a space of 5 cm between each cutting and follow a vertical movement in their planting.
Be careful however, choosing to plant a Sansevieria Trifasciata is also knowing how to be patient. Indeed, it will take several months before the plant develops properly and reaches adulthood .
It is possible to start planting your snake plant outdoors and to repot it after 3 to 4 years . In this case however, we advise you to find a pot with a hole in the bottom for better irrigation of the water during the watering sessions.
Snake Plant needs to be repotted only when the roots are cramped in its pot, about every 3 or 4 years. We then select a pot barely larger than the previous one and the bottom of which is perforated to allow the water to drain.
