It is a very decorative and resistant plant.&nbsp;&nbsp;Sansevieria&nbsp;<strong>resists very well at both high and low temperatures (up to -5\u00b0C)<\/strong>&nbsp;.

We must consider it as a succulent plant, so&nbsp;<strong>we must water it only when the substrate is dry<\/strong>&nbsp;. Excess water can cause&nbsp;<strong>rhizome rot<\/strong>&nbsp;(underground stem with several shoots that grow horizontally, from which roots and herbaceous shoots emerge from the nodes) . It does not like humid environments, so it is preferable to&nbsp;<strong>avoid spraying or misting water.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Transplant:<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;if the pot has become too small,&nbsp;<strong>the ideal is to move it to a larger one<\/strong>&nbsp;when spring begins, between March and April. To ensure good drainage, it is advisable to place some pieces of terracotta or pebbles at the bottom of the pot to prevent the substrate from being completely soaked with water. If it is not transplanted, it is advisable to renew the upper substrate: remove 3 cm of surface substrate and add new soil.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Compost:<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;Apply compost&nbsp;<strong>when temperatures begin to rise<\/strong>&nbsp;steadily (late spring and early summer) and do it once a month until temperatures start to drop again (fall).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pruning:<\/strong>&nbsp;Sansevieria&nbsp;<strong>does not require pruning<\/strong>&nbsp;, but it is recommended&nbsp;<strong>remove dry leaves<\/strong>&nbsp;to avoid diseases.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Flowering:<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;This tropical plant does not usually bloom indoors, but if it does, small flowers will appear in late summer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Additional care for sansevieria:<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;Try not to touch the tips of the leaves, as they are sensitive and can be easily damaged.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"cke_2_anchor_5\">How to revive the mother-in-law&#8217;s tongue again?
