If I remember correctly this one has a pup and the plant has not noticeably grown but the pup is now nearly as tall as the parent. Next time I get the camera out I try to take a picture of it. Here it is buried in the right hand side background (this photo was to show some one what the greenhouse shelving looked like not to show off plants, sorry)

Thanks for the link, Laura. I've read an older version of it, and still doesn't say anything about growing anywhere but FL, unless I missed it. Stush, since I could see the EA tag, I had assumptions about that one plant. Sorry if that wasn't clear from what I said, and for pointing it out so I could explain. It's hard to imagine shipping plants from China to be sold for a few dollars to be profitable. Those containers that ship so cheaply do so on ships that take weeks, then take time to be inspected, unloaded, get put on a train or truck to go to a warehouse for more sorting for shipment to individual stores. Maybe flying them would still leave room for profit at their prices, IDK, just seems unlikely to me. I'm curious too, you raise an interesting point.

The San's I was given did end up turning into 'Streaker' I got several of these now. Thanks for the help. When I first got these they grew super slow. I had others growing in the same patch of garden like 'Golden Hahnii', 'Jade Marginated' and these ones the 'Streakers' took forever to grow for me. Now there growing good give off a couple of pups when I show them a bit of love with good waterings. Since I originally posted here I have had and lost allot of San's. I'm currently trying to get my collection back together after losing several varieties. I'm more into the Hahnii and Futura ones but do like the bigger regular San's as well. Just on the look out for a 'Jade', a regular 'Hahnii' and 'Pearl Young'. One that I use to own but nobody seems to have either is 'Henny's Gold' Been thinking of doing a terrarium for these in my room but I read that they prefer sand soil on one site with dry air and one site saying more of a peat soil and humid environment. Sorry for going on n on.

TerraceTC, this could be one of many types. How tall are these leaves? Your leaves look rather thin and bendable, however kirkii leaves are quite thick and have a distinctive heavy 'keel' on the back side of the midrib, making them fairly rigid. I don't see this 'keel' on the reverse side of leaves in your pic. This could very well be a species called S. aubrytiana, given the pattern and width of the leaves. Google some pics of this species and see if it's a match other than the washed-out color of your plant. Aubrytiana is bright and cheery in correct light, in my opinion one of the more attractive of the tall, flat leaved species. Your sans appears to be in too much sun, being so light-colored. You might move it under a shady tree where it gets high light but no direct sun after 10 or 11 AM. I think in more shade you will find its colors will be much brighter and more beautiful. Interesting you are in India. While almost all sans are in Africa there are at least two species native to your country, one is roxburghiana. It comes from your Coromandel Coast if that's anywhere near you. The other is 'Bandipur', from the area of Bandipur, Ghats. Not wanting to appear like I have this location data stored in my own memory, it comes from the great sansevieria explorer, collector and hybridizer B. Juan Chahinian's book 'The Splendid Sansevieria'.
