How to Grow – Quick View:

1. Light: Sansevierias prefer bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light conditions. Avoid exposing them to direct sunlight for extended periods, as it may cause leaf burning.
2. Watering: Water moderately, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it’s essential to ensure proper drainage.
3. Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix suitable for succulents or cacti. A mix of potting soil, sand, and perlite works well.
4. Temperature: Sansevierias are adaptable to a wide range of temperatures but prefer temperatures between 60-85°F (15-29°C). Protect them from extreme cold as they are sensitive to frost.
5. Propagation: Propagate Sansevieria longiflora through division or leaf cuttings. Division involves separating offsets or rhizomes from the parent plant, while leaf cuttings can be placed in soil or water until roots develop.
