I really love that you give updates over several months. It's so helpful to know whether the techniques actually work in the end. As always, I loved the video!

“I’m sure they find us just as gross” hahahaha love Sean as always!!!

Sansevierias are succulents, they need very little water. If yours are out in the rain, you probably never need to water them, the yellowing leaves are due to overwatering. Mine are indoors and only are watered every 2 or 3 weeks.

The large roots are rhizomes btw. The 'albino' growth was white because it was under the soil and hadn't been exposed to sunlight yet. When you say, "They cannot be over watered" I believe you mean, "Should not be over watered." Your English is very good, but I thought you might want to know the difference. 'Can not' means 'not able to.' 'Should not' means it's something you don't want to do. Apologies if you already knew the difference, I thought you might want to know. :)

I"m so terrified of killing my sansevierias that I very rarely water them unless they are bone dry, then they get a soaking and nothing more until dry again. I've lost a couple in the past, including a lovely Moonshine, just by overwatering. My tall ones are fine but if leaning a bit, they have a bamboo cane for support (not tied up in a bunch . . . ! ) I love how you can grow everything outside, so envious! Given how fast they grow for you, I'd probably have ditched the bendy yellow leaves, especially with scale. You're very kind to them :-) Beautiful!

Propagation via cuttings and root division is SOOOOO satisfying for me 😍😍😍

If you progate them thru leaves, (in my experience) mostly they revert to their original form. Hi from the Philippines😊

For me sansevierias are arid plants there supposed to be dry all the time so I suggest the medium must be easily drain the best mixture to use is lots of pumice loam soil and more rice hull thats it... no need to use aroid mixtures which contains coco cubes and husk this mix priducea mealy bugs and aphids in the soil using this mixture will take the potting mix stay wet for a long period of time. That causes of pests...

👌🏽I find everything you do satisfying to watch!

You're just a funny cutie! I love to watch your videos :) Greetings from Germany!

My Sansevierias have been flopping and turned yellow and I thought it was caused by owerwatering. Today I noticed scales on the leaves! 😱 Found your video at the right time and I'm going to give them a good scrub with soap shortly! 😅 I'll also try propagating some leaf cuttings so that I'll get some pure green ones. Thank you! 👍

I also repotted and tied my moonshine few months back when it was floppy - it has since put out a lot of new growth!! Good luck with yours Sean!

Besides your plants being so beautiful, your house looks like a dream 😍

Your calaboration with @ leafing around was sooo funny well done would love to see another one in the future. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge and experience with plants.😃

Hey there, buddy! So, I guess you already know, but here, in Brazil, we call them swords: 'St. George's sword' - for the trifasc. and 'St. Barbara's sword' - for the varieg. And old ppl used to say that you need to have at least one pot with both of them, close to the main doors, to keep away bad spirits and mean ppl. Tc.

You may want to use a toothbrush with soft bristles to remove the scales.

Доброго дня💐 какие шикарные сансы😍👍просто загляденье. 😍👍

I also find it very satisfying to divide plants that way. If they are prone to that method.

Like a sword ,, shiuu shiuu.. that's cute :) very pleasant video

Hi Sean, you are so helpful, I love your videos ❤️

Great information. Thanks

Thanks for update video Nice 👍

What a great video!! Lol it was strangely satisfying when you were dividing it up lol

Definitely satisfying! I love doing that! Haha!And oh yes, I love their orange roots, too!

I know it was a video on SANSEVIERIAS but oh my god your Micans are breathtaking .Would love a video on those.

Your micans though!!! 😍

Sansevieria aubrytiana aka jaboa tend to flop due to their size, totally normal 😊

Separating the roots was a little painful for me, although I’ve heard that can stimulate growth.

I loved seperating my snake plant last yr, I went from having 2 to 6. The process was similar to this. 👍🏽so fun!

The big one is Jaboa, and nothing is wrong with it. Jaboa tends to flop when it’s getting bigger, and that what makes it interesting

Just in time once again!

I NEVER water my snake plants daily. They are desert plants from Africa, so I water every 2 to 4 weeks after the soil is completely dry. This is why the very tall leaves, almost 3 feet high, NEVER droop.

Those fat roots are the new shoots :) they trying to come out but they can't hahahaha. I bet they happy now that you have repotted them :)

It’s a little painful to watch how you divide the plant ahahah but I love this kind of videos. I’m learning so much from you! Thank you

Satisfying 😌

satisfying 🙃 for sure

Finally a video on Sansevieria! (: Hope you could cover other forms of Sansevieria aside from Trifasciata in future videos. 😁

Hey Sean! It's normal for sanse to have orange roots (especially when they mature). ASMR feels when you were dividing the entire thing! Love it! The flopping is normal especially if it has grown big, but it (together with yellowing) some times can be a sign of overwatering too. ANd yes, i love your pantssss!

Woah. Just touching those bugs. The name "scale" just freaks me out.

Thanks for sharing ❤

Hi Sean: Greetings from Mexico. I like your videos, interesting and funny. I don't speak English, much less Indonesian; I translate them with yootube. Although I do not have as many plants as you, I like to know or know about them. Regardless of the language, I always try to find information. Your plant is rotting from excess water and lack of direct sun. In Mexico they abound everywhere. They call them mother-in-law's tongue.

Their roots are orange.They flops over sometimes without an explanation for it. I just brought one it growing straight up but bottom leaves are growing in a boomerang shape.😀 Happy Growing and stay safe.

Yeah I agree that insects probably think humans are gross.

Yes!! The root porn is quite gratifying.

The reason they are falling over mainly because it’s another varsity of sansevieria called sansevieria aubrytiana or jaboa!

Sean sells Sansevieras by the Seashore 😄 That just popped up in my mind, after I thought of Saving Private Ryan. May I also say, I find you to be the most endearing Plantuber, because you come across as highly empathetic & natural, not a try hard. I hope by saying this, you continue to be who you are 😊 I am a believer if one has something nice to say to a person, it is prob always a good idea to tell it to the person. Btw, I have a sanseviera trifasciata that has been growing in water for 1.5 years. I ripped off a bunch of 3 leaves with it's thick orange root intact, it has lost the orange root since, but it is still alive and is still growing new leaves 🌿

All my healthy dracaena roots are orangey yellow in color too! ALSO! You looked hella attractive for a second there breaking apart that huge plant with full sweaty arm force 😅

I have always grown them in extremely Sandy soil and they did very well.I don’t know if coco chips is best medium for them. But then they tolerate everything so yeah

A lot of Sansevierias do have orange roots. ;-) And yes, the only way to keep the variegation is by root division. Leaf cuttings always revert to the original form. I'd really like to know why the leaves flop over as well. The shoots are white because they could not reach the light; they will turn green when exposed to light (gradually!). I'd be worried about the water getting in between the leaves of the Sansevierias and causing stem rot.

Hi Sir. Water it every other two weeks. They become.stronger when dried. I got some.too.

i Havent read all the comments, but i think the reason the little pup is white is simply just because it was still in the soil so it didnt get any sun :) hope youre doing well

I think your big Sansaveria is a Jaboa! The leaves will flop over as it grows. Check it out an see but it looks identical to Jaboa. 😃💚

💚💚

It's been 5 days that u didn't update interesting videos cutie.. Couldn't wait to check ur update video.. Please do come back to KZfaq... Your huge huge biggest fan...

💚💚💚

You can use fish emulsion , if you are not using that..to promote growth...ND there one thing you have to give these guys it's native setup that is....jangle below the larger tree that contains rotting leaves ND other material

the green and tall one is Aubrytiana a.k.a Jiboa/Jaboa/Jiboya. The leaves flop over because it is too tall and the plant has been underwatered before. Systemic pesticide is the way to go if you can't get rid of the mealy bugs

😂🤣😭 Lazy **stards.....just love your humour!!!!

Nice video! Thanks for sharing your plants. The long green ones aren't trifasciata, its actually very hard to distinguish the long greens unless you saw them bloom. Most of them can only be id when you have a clear inflorescence(flower bloom). Could be metallica, longiflora or aubrytiana.

Peace Lily Care Tips please! Never seen you make a proper video about them or show them in your vid. Need their suitable potting mix, light, watering when we keeping them indoor and outdoor🥺 I will be very happy if you ever did a vid about them. Also I really want to see your Peace Lily collection!😍

That big snake plant is Sansevieria jaboa. And that floppy leaves are normal when it grows big enough.

Hello. I’m new to the plant world about 2 weeks in and am learning a lot. I have a pothos that was in a 6” pot that was badly root bounded where there were about 2 inches of soil on the top and nothing below that but kind of thick roots wrapped tightly around and long. I tried repotting into an 8” pot and then realized I may need to repot it into a bigger size? Do I need to trim the roots? If I add the cuttings that are rooted, do I need to cut the roots that were root bounded to make room for the new roots from the cuttings to establish? Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experiences.

Great video Sean! My snake plants are also struggling because of the bery humid weather here in Vietnam. I never water them but they still get root rot. 😅 Also, I love your sense of humour and funny captions. Keep posting amazing content.

I have 5 ft tall snakes in full peat moss in my home. I water them like once every couple of months.

Overwatering made some leaves withered.

sensitive plan like too tight in . The pot they don't like to have a lot of room in the pot why it's flopping and another thing because it's outside and it's so much moisture. When they don't have time to dry out in between watering days started flopping they need to be very very dry if it's outside at least once a month watering good luck with that it's a beautiful plant just needs to a little bit TLC

i've never clicked on a video so fast my sansevieria is Dying bcs of mealy bugs i'm trying my best rn but if it dies i'm gonna be so sad bcs it's one of my first plants 😭

Wow talk about a green thumb I've had my sansavera for over a year so i thought i would separate them to make more and i ended up killing them (i have one stalk propagating in water) hope it gives me roots in the summer

Hi Sean, nice video as always ☺️ Just wanted to let you know that your big non variegated Sansevieria is Jaboa, not Trifasciata 🙂 I don't know why they flop over but I assume it's just because they are older leaves and their fibers get weaker. My aunt has an enormous one that is older than me and it's always tied because it does the same thing. However when you're dealing with scale please be careful not to throw the ones you take off of the plant near the soil or the healthy leaves because it will spread. Aaand regarding watering, I think they get the yellow leaves because they are being overwatered. Sansevierias can take really long periods without water so I'd rather recommend that you keep them indoors or at least sheltered so they don't get rained on, and water them like every two weeks or so. Anyway, your videos are always so satisfying to watch, keep it up and take care ☺️

can we propagate the drooling leaves by cutting them in multiple pieces ? Ever tried it ? I have a sansevieria which leaves are drooling, and yellowing slowly from bottom to top.. I was wondering if I can propagate by cutting the top of the leaves , while the top of the leaf is still green . need help before it gets all yellow :(

My snakeplant was in terracotta pot n i watered it every 15 days. 2 leaves turned yellow from bottom and dried off. Checked its roots n its orange/brown but dry and brittle. I changed it to normal nursery pot n watered it. What could be the cause and should i do anything else? Also I had it by a north facing window on a shelf

❤🥰👍

May be the leaves get heavy when it grows too big or too much water inside the leaves

Would you cut off the struggling ones & repot the new growth?

Will just spraying neem oil solution work on scales or do you really have to scrub them off? :) 16:05 i love your micans!😍

i'm sorry if I sounded patronizing or if you've known about this, but I have mild concern seeing you potting up your sanse in pure coco chips, right from the plastic packaging... because local coco chips sold here (jakarta) are mostly untreated and contains high level of tannin (even some sellers don't know this). tannin is known to hinder root growth and can slow down plant growth. it needs to be washed and soaked repeatedly until the water runs clear before use. but you can also let the rain do that for you by placing the plant outdoor like what you do with your sanse. but for indoor plants, this might not a good idea.

What kind of bar of soap did you use? Was it a normal normal hand soap? Or a specific product? Also after you washed the soap off wouldn't the scales go back in the soil and climb back up?

Oh my God!!! my snake plant has that too....what king of soap your using?

Please help me understand what are the scabs on the leaves when you are saying the leaves are clean, no more scale, and then I see several scabs ? What are those ? My plants have the same appearance & I can't get a clear understanding or solid answer. Mostly I hear them written off as "mechanical damage" when the plants I personally grew from babies had no reason to be damaged; especially "mechanically". Because I've had scale on my Dracena Sansevierias I say they're related to the scale. Look at the propagated plants at 17;15-17:50 both plants have a brown scab and the leaf on the far left @ 17:47 has obvious damage. What is that ? My plants were still growing with scale; it took awhile before it was obviously affecting their development. Please help me have a healthy snake plant, they are one of my favorites. Thank you so much.

hi Sean, thanks for showing how to get rid of scales. can you share link to your shop for your insecticide soap? also wondering do you ship to Malaysia or Singapore?

May I know whether your insecticidal soup works on spider mites n do you export to Malaysia? What is the brand of your soap? Tq

OMG terima kasih for the video Shawn! I have the same scale issue on my snake plant as well but unable to find exact scale that looks the same like on youtube or google until i find yours. Thank for the info on how to remove it. But i just wonder if this scale is some kind of flying insect or it just stick there.. coz im worried if i just brush it off, the scales might transfer to another leave.... TBH one of my snake plant has been infected by the same scales like your but worst... whole pot infested with it. was thinking to cut the whole plant. anyway thanks again for the video. take care and stay safe.

It was difficult to watch until the sword thing 🤣

I think they flop over because of too much sun exposure. I think there is a thin film that is enamel like on the outside of the leaves. (this enamel gives the leaves its strength to stand up) If there is too much sun, then this film melts/dissolves and can no longer stand up straight. I can't remember where I heard this from, but possible solution for ya

Hey ...so I'm dealing with sort of a problem I was hoping you could help me out with... the middle of one of my sansevieria leaves is completely black but other parts of the leaf looks good AND I wasn't sure what to do about it, should I just propagate or leave it alone ?

Is it safe to handle the pesticide soap with your bare hands?

грунт выбран слишком влагоемкий.. это всё таки растение суккулентного типа, а не ароидное)😌 от червеца купите препараты и хорошенько обработайте - не мучайте растение 🌿 то что вы делаете все равно что блох на собаке ловить.. по одной.. травите!!! эмм ..и ведущий кстати - симпотичный 😏

Why does my sansevieria have brown tips also how often water?

👍😁🇵🇱

Sizdeki bitkiler bizde yok malesef 😔

thank you for the video kak sean, now I can help my mom sansevieria forest 😂. Can I propagate from the bulb (bonggol)? or should I leave it alone?

Hello, fun fact at 8:37, you said that they look like a sword, here in Brasil their popular name actually is "sword of Saint Jorge".

How to fix a sansevieria moonshine that has fungus?

Since the soap has pesticide, should you wear gloves?

Where do you sell your soap online?

I think you must put them in full sun..

soaprecipe please!

Please help gray spots help and your welcome to send me any welcome to send me any you don’t want snake plants

the baby plant is white because it was berried in the soil.
