Favorite Sansevierias?
Comments (29)Why don't I start with the favorites of the ones I currently OWN? Then, I'll tell you which ones I'm lusting after. LOL 1.) S. Kirkii var. Pulchra 'Coppertone' 2.) S. Fischerii 3.) S. White Striped Giant(unsure on this ID, Smoley named it, haven't been able to confirm it) 4.) S. Hahnii 'Swirls' 5.) S. Hahnii 'Jade Dwarf Marginated' 6.) S. Hahnii 'Silver Marginated' Now, here's what I'm lusting after! 1.) S. 'Masoniana' 2.) S. 'Pinguicula' 3.) S. 'Patens' 4.) S. 'Frosty Spears' 5.) S. 'Halli' I think this is a good stopping place....I could go on and on and on.... GH...See MoreSansevieria hyacinthoides equals guineensis
Comments (4)I wondered what became of S. guieneesis. On these forums persons are occasionally impressed by size. I wanted to share that in 1978 or so I saw what I believe to have been a S. guieneesis, at that time, that was noticeably taller than I was. It may have been seven foot tall. BTW, ETA. and all that. The best site I have found is: Search results — The Plant List - 160 plant name records match your search criteria Sansevieria. "Sansevieria guineensis (L.) Willd. is a synonym of Sansevieria hyacinthoides (L.) Druce This name is a synonym of Sansevieria hyacinthoides (L.) Druce."...See More'Sansevieria Future Mix'
Comments (8)woodnative, Following up these ideas if a big part of the fun of gardening. Good luck with your 'Forescate' type! But even if you don't get the pup, I bet you're enjoying yourself. About my plants, your surmises still sound good. There was another San. thread, 'Sanseviera Moonglow', in which a guy named Russ FLA said that leaf cuttings from 'Moonshine' would give plants of regular trifasciata coloring but 'Moonshine' leaf shape. This form he said is called S. trifasciata 'Robusta', and it sounds like the fourth of my Ikea finds. This plus your three suggestions sound good to me, though I don't know for certain. They're nice plants in any case. I don't have any photos of my gaudy plant, which is doing fine in my kitchen window. There were two plants of it in the batch: being a moderate person who loves her fellow man, I took one plant and left the other for some other lucky soul to find. So far, though it's early in the winter, my Sans. are doing fine. I hope yours are, too! Melissa...See MoreSansevieria kirkii superclone
Comments (8)I've heard of S. kirkii 'Superclone', have never seen it and know practically nothing about it, but I think you've become the owner of an AWESOME plant. I'm a beginner with Sansevierias. From my modest store of knowledge I can tell you the following: Sansevierias can't stand cold, and especially not chill together with wet; you should probably bring your 'Superclone' in when the temperature threatens to drop down to 50F, and you should keep it fairly dry now with autumn coming and temperatures descending from their summer high levels: protect it from rain. It needs to winter in the house. Sansevierias take to indoor life pretty well; they're known for their tolerance for low (indoor) levels of light, and for needing some shade outdoors in the summertime. However, I think that even Sans. appreciate a sunny window and bright rooms in the winter, though they may be able to get along without them. Cultural needs vary according to the variety, and I don't know S. kirkii and its cultivars: how much chill they can stand; how much light they welcome. I would err on the side of keeping it warm and dry. I suspect yours is a rather valuable plant. Your 'Superclone' is beautiful. Good luck with it, and congratulations! Melissa...See Moreshana_lee29
