One of the most resistant plants that exist: it is the sansevieria<\/strong> , better known as tongue de mother-in-law<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is a succulent plant<\/strong> , very loved as a houseplant<\/strong> . It needs very little care and usually lives for many years, giving our home a touch of elegance<\/strong> thanks to the elongated shape of its leaves<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, no matter how resistant it is, this plant needs some precautions, especially in the hot months<\/strong> . They are simple actions, but necessary to keep green<\/strong> and healthy<\/strong> the language of our mother-in-law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Warning<\/strong> : if you have particular problems with this plant, always contact your trusted florist or gardener.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Internal or external?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If the sansevieria<\/strong> is traditionally considered an indoor plant a><\/strong>garden<\/strong> or in the balcony<\/strong> It is also true that in summer you can have it on the <\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The mother-in-law’s tongue<\/strong> , in fact, in the cold months< a i=4> must be kept at a temperature not lower than<\/strong>10 \u00b0C<\/strong> . In summer<\/strong> , it also tolerates very high temperatures<\/strong> , and can be kept outdoors. no problems.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, be careful <\/strong>of summer storms<\/strong> – if it rains, bring this plant to the inside or protect it. Too much water could kill you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

High temperatures? Water more!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In summer, high temperatures<\/strong> can weaken your plants<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite being a tropical plant<\/strong> , the sansevieria<\/strong> needs more water when it’s hot. The ideal is to water it at least once per week<\/strong> or every two weeks<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The secret<\/strong> is to check the soil<\/strong> : when it seems too dry<\/strong> , it’s time to water<\/strong> your plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NB:<\/strong> obviously the more you keep the plant in a sunny place a><\/strong>.<\/strong> , the more the soil will tend to dry out quickly warm<\/strong> and <\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be careful with direct light<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you keep this plant indoors outside<\/strong> , choose carefully where to place it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although he greatly loves the light<\/strong> , the tongue of<\/strong> The mother-in-law does not tolerate direct sunlight for long. These, in fact, especially in the hottest months, can burn the<\/strong>leaves<\/strong> of this plant, causing premature death.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you see yellowish-brown spots <\/strong>on<\/strong> the leaves, the cause may be precisely a  \/span>  to sunlight.excessive direct exposure<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ideal is to place this plant in a sunny place<\/strong> , but where direct light does not reach more than a couple of hours a day<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parasites? No, thanks!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The thick leaves<\/strong> of sansevieria<\/strong> are very resistant to attacks by insects<\/strong> and pests<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, when it is hot, the plant may be affected by some infestations<\/strong> , especially if it is kept close to others. Plants in the garden<\/strong> or on the balcony<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is not uncommon for the plant to be attacked by the mealybug<\/strong> : a parasite similar to a small red spider that releases a substance similar to a white powder (in fact, it is known as cochineal or cochineal).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In particular, in sansevieria<\/strong> , this parasite manifests itself with brown spots that appear on the underside. <\/strong> of the leaves<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getting rid of it is not difficult. You can try with white spirit vinegar<\/strong> : dilute 150ml<\/strong> in  and spray it on the leaves.a liter of water<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alternatively, brush it directly over the leaves with the help of a small brush<\/strong> or a ball of cotton<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Replant? It depends<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The mother-in-law’s tongue transplant should normally be performed in early spring<\/strong> , but not every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ideal is to do it every 3 years<\/strong> when, in general, the roots<\/strong> has already used up all the nutrients it had to offer.soil<\/strong> they begin to \u201cget tight\u201d in the pot and the <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choose a pot<\/strong> larger<\/strong> for this plant and transplant, having be careful<\/strong> not to break the roots<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fertilize regularly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Actually, fertilization<\/strong> is not mandatory for this plant, even without fertilizers<\/strong> , can easily survive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, if you want a sansevieria<\/strong> to grow and keep its leaves healthy, you need to choose the right fertilizer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fertilizers<\/strong> based on nitrogen<\/strong> and potassium< \/span><\/strong> to be mixed with the water used for irrigation .liquid fertilizers are chosen<\/strong> are very suitable: often, for this plant, <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many people wonder, then, how often they should fertilize. It depends on the type and indications of the individual fertilizers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Usually, in the summer period<\/strong> , it is necessary to pay every 3 weeks< a i=4> . Then, in <\/strong>the cold months<\/strong> , you should suspend <\/strong>fertilization<\/strong> .<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
