ID for my new Sansevieria
Comments (3)It is the Original Form of Trifasciata. Definetely not zeylanica. Zeylanica has smaller leaf, darker cross banding motif, and has rosette form....See MoreNew Sansevierias
Comments (11)It isn't uncommon to find variegated plants among green species or hybrids. It's a process of massed multiplication that produces these kinds of growths. I am always amazed when I see offerings from Ebay selling high priced things that can be obtained through leaf and root hacking. I imagine you'd get a lot of good results throwing your plant into a chipper and then rooting all the cut up pieces and watching what comes out. The arrival of so many variegated sansevierias are from multiple propagation techniques. But it's one in a _____ and this can be done over and over again from the new shoots that emerge and repeated, then some day down the line, you'll see some. But sporting naturally does occur on already established plants. But this can take a while. A sport of Twisted Sister from Bangkok...See MoreS. dawei gold variegated sport
Comments (4)S. dawei has flat leaves, that grow at least a yard tall, that abaxial side has a strong keel, and the adaxial side has a deep wide channal. Very smooth but not waxy or shiny. The some very lighter green variegation on the back of the leaves. My plant leaves grow in pairs, sometimes triples. These leave has a narrow channal half way up, and quickly broadens to 5-6" wide. My plnt is an adult plant and I had one variegated offset from this plant. Norma Lewis...See MoreNew monstera and sansevieria in very moisture-retentive soil
Comments (0)I recently picked up a monstera and sansevieria. They had just been watered at the nursery, and now, 9 days since bringing them home, the soil surface is still slightly damp to the touch, and the monstera has been weeping little droplets of water from the leaves every evening. Both are in plastic pots from the nursery. I recently acquired ingredients for 5-1-1 mix for summer replanting, so I'm wondering what my best approach is with these guys. I don't think they need larger pots, just better soil. Both look perfectly happy for the moment, and the monstera has at least 4 new leaves that are about to start unrolling. Should I: A) Wait until June to repot them, being very careful about watering in the meantime B) Repot them into 5-1-1 now C) Transfer them now to unglazed terra cotta pots of the same size (leaving soil & roots intact), to help them dry faster until I repot them later in the summer D) something else?...See Morepopmama (Colorado, USDA z5)
