So happy to rediscover your channel as my snake plant that I've had for a few years suddenly has thrown a right fit and is rotting very quickly. Today I hope to save what I can and this video is perfect! So strange that mine did this at about the same time of the year that yours did!
I hope you can save your Snake plant Jillian :-D and keep me updated on the progress
Hi Lynn, I tried this last summer and the new plant that grew was green in color without that beautiful yellow stipe on it. From what I’ve read that will be the case unless you get a portion of the root. But I loved the process! It grew a lot of roots so quickly! The plantlet took a bit more time of course. But it’s doing well! This color change reminds me of the spider plant whose seeds will grow solid green even when taken from the variegated plant. I’m fascinated now with cuttings. I’ll stick anything in some soil and see what happens! My husband ought to keep watch on his arms and legs! Plant Power back at ya. Love your videos and your bubbly sweetness! Hi to Hans! 🙋🏻
Thats brilliant news that you have successfully propagated Sanseveria this way too :-D its so much fun, and its incredible how they grow all green without the variegation and Spider plants are the same too :-D haha at your Husband needing to keep watch of his arms and legs this made me giggle so much hahaha :-D Hans sends love back to you

Once your new roots have started to grow, how often do you water it and do you recommend continuing with the misting only?
Hi Shelby, once the roots have formed you can water when the soil has completely dried out in the pot, from Spring and Summer its usually about 2-3 times a month, but in Winter its best to keep them mostly dry with only a light watering about once a month, good luck with your Sansevieria and thanks so much for watching XXXX
So useful! Thanks. What's the best soil for Sansevieria after rooting? Someone recommended half and half, John Innes 3 and grit?
Hi :-D yes John innes no2 or 3 and grit is perfect for Sanseveria and I use that mix too, :-D as long as the soil is well draining and dries out quickly in between waterings thats the most important :-D thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching, sending you an abundance of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle and have a wonderful Wednesday XXXXX
@@desertplantsofavalon Brilliant, thanks for the info!
Sharp scissors work great to cut Sansevierias, If handing a scalpel gives you the creeps. 😁🤗💚💚💚

You save me thank you
So happy that the video has helped Nikki, thanks so much for watching and for your wonderful comment, and wishing you a fantastic plant powered Tuesday XXXX
Thank you for your video. Why do some people propagate them by standing cuttings in water first to grow roots?
So happy you enjoyed the video, yes you can propagate them by rooting in water too, I don't have as much success with rooting Sanseveria in water though as they often rot in water for me, but I know many growers root their cuttings in water with success, you can definitely try both the soil and water method, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a wonderful Wednesday XXXX
This happened to one of my snake plant, and it happened quickly. I have a plant that is going through the same thing now, so I will try this. Winter is approaching though, so I assume it will take longer to root.
Good luck with saving your plant, it can take much longer in Winter and may take 6 months or more to root but should still root in time, thanks so much for watching and have a wonderful plant powered weekend XXXX
what do I do for a plant that has curling leaves
Hello there you mentioned something about the leaf turning brown when it turns brown to I then remove them from the soil? And how do I know when it’s growing roots if it’s in the soil? I’m so confused as far as the growing process I already propagated them and put them in the soil.
Hi Elizabeth
I just lost a side runner to that exact cause. I usually keep mine a year without incident, then either over water or under water.. .
So sorry to hear that, but hopefully you can save some of the plant bu this method, but the new growth from the cuttings will be all green but still lovely XXXXX
My fresh cuttings also rotted both in soil & water.I guess it's for taking from the rotting plant
so sorry to read that but if the Mother plant was not healthy its hard to save fro cuttings too XXXXX
I pulled out all the over watered and rotting leaves but there is still roots left in the pot. Can these still grow? And if so how should I care for them?
Hi there :-D yes if there are still roots left its possible that new shoots can form from these roots, as these roots can sometimes be little tubers where new shoots will emerge from, I would repot the remaining roots into fresh very well draining succulent soil and keep on the dry side, water just enough to dampen the soil and then allow the soil to fully dry again before lightly watering again, keep the pot in a very bright position but away from direct sunshine, Good luck and I hope it works for you, thanks so much for watching and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle for a sunny Sunday XXXX
I just replanted my year-old sansevierias from their nursery pots & now I noticed a single outer leaf in each pot is shriveling/yellowing. I'm guessing that's early sign of rotting? Do I dig it all back up & start cutting & separating them now? I'm really new to plants (these were my first ever) & chose them because they're supposedly hard to kill. I guess I did the impossible?
Hi there, If you started your Sanseverias from cuttings its normal that the single outer leaf from the original cutting will shrivel and yellow as the new growth takes over and this is normal and no need to worry, but if you got the plants as young babies it may be best to remove them from the pots and check over the roots and if the roots and other growth looks healthy with no signs of rot, I would leave them but keep an eye on how they get on, if its just one leaf on the outer side you may not need to worry about it, but if it looks like it could be rot that is spreading to the whole of the plant/s I would separate them and cut off any healthy parts to re propagate as cuttings, I hope they will be ok for you, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a wonderful Wednesday XXXXX
@@desertplantsofavalon Thank you for your response! Greatly appreciate it!
I bought my sansevieria originally from a nursery, so not from cuttings. I stupidly put them into a pot without any clay rocks or better aeration at the bottom. I've been doing more research & spent a lot of money on different items so I can re-do them. Is it safe to re-pot them after only about a month? Or should I hold off and wait?
If you're interested, here is my twitter post showing pics of my plants: twitter.com/_pandalin/status/1255175933964648448
Maybe that'll give a better idea of my situation? I've since cut off the yellow-shriveled leaves.
Before I re-plant them in better conditions, should I do the 1-1 peroxide/water "wash" and let it sit for about 5 days? I saw somebody else mention this due to root rot but it wasn't for a sansevieria plant.
These are my 1st babies. I'm really new to this whole plant parent thing. I just wanted to take care of them & give them new homes, but it seems I've put them into danger. :(
@@pandagiri Thanks so much for sending the link to the photos of your beautiful Sanseverias, the very good news is that they are PERFECT, and there is no need to worry at all because the very lower leaves do this as the leaves naturally go yellow and dry off, you did the best thing to cut off the yellow leaves and I do this to mine too, but the plants them selves are PERFECT, and looking close up of your plants there is no signs of rot from the base at all, and your plants are happy and healthy, I would not worry about repotting them but if you wanted to change the soil of them you can do it now, if the roots are ok you can pot them up directly into the new soil, and keep them unwatered for the first week to allow them to acclimatise to the new soil, but if the roots have rotted you can do the peroxide water wash, but this is not necessary if the rots are all ok, your Sanseverieras look perfect to me
Hello I was looking at your video on how to save a sansevieria plant I have a starfish type cutting of a sansevieria plant and it's starting to get root rot I had to cut the rotten part off now I have it calasene over the question that I have is can those types of sansevieria has be saved or can all sansevieria plants be saved?
Hi there :-D all Sanseveria plants can be saved by cuttings, all of the different varieties and shapes of Sanseveria can be saved :-D good luck with your cutting Michelle, I hope it roots for you
I have got a mother in law tougue its beginning to lose its leafs can you help me from losing my plant I am afraid of over watering
My plant drying up. How ro save it. Top colour changed
I have one like this, (well, two in one pot, got them like thst) and one of them just gotten yellow and squishy... From some videos I learned it's from over watering or root rot. But it's weird that just one of them has changed! The other is very healthy... So weird.
Plants can be so strange sometimes I agree
Ariel Mizrachi mine have always started with only one leaf getting mushy. Then they all slowly turn that way 😢 I’ve only thrown out one snake plant, and I’m working on saving the one that is seeming like it’s rotting now! Hope it works!
Hi what if its the top of the leaf thats rotting? 😥
I do have a question. How I got into the situation is I forgot to bring it in before the snow, this plant is HUGE! So I wanted to try and it. I'm doing everything you had stated in the video but ... The inside of the plant. Still has healthy growth with roots. So can I just re-pot those by themselves in different pots? Like I'm transplanting?
Hi there, yes the good news is the inside of the plant has most likely been protected from the frost by the other leaves on the outside, the inside of the plant with roots can definitely be divided and planted up into different pots, it should recover really well, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a super Sunday XXXX
Oh so when i see them in shops it is just cuttings not realy plants yet, i just found a fernwood and a cylendrica but when i repot it looks like leafs that are newly cut and planted not complet plants
Hi Anders :-D sometimes the shops sell cuttings that have been put into soil or often coconut coir, they should still root though, we have bought Sanseveiria that was potted up and when we went to remove the soil they were cuttings, but once we changed the soil into a well draining soil they rooted after a few weeks, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a terrific Tuesday XXXX
I bought my snake plant in a glass container with decorated sand at the bottom and rocks at the base (top) i thought these plants can survive in water and I was unsure how to water so I was overwateriing and now my plant smells weird. what can I do to fix it before it starts to die? I've taken it out of its pot and let the roots dry out is this okay?
Hi Rose, so sorry to hear about your Sansevieria, I think that the glass container without any drainage holes encouraged too much damp for the roots, these plants like to be grow in a very well draining soil mix and the soil mix needs to dry out fully before watering again, let the roots dry out completely and then re pot up in a very well draining cactus and succulent soil mix and in a pot with drainage holes, glass containers are a death sentence for these plants and sadly used just for the sale market, Good luck with your Sansevieria and thanks so much for watching and have a wonderful plant powered Sunday today XXXXX
On another video I saw told me to let them sit out for a couple days then to put into water to grow roots? What is the right thing to do?
Hi Heidi :-D yes you can also root the cuttings in the water method too, let the cuttings sit and dry for about 5 days and then place them in a container with about an inch of water at the bottom, keep the cuttings in a bright position but away from direct sun and change the water every 3 days and they should root in about 4-6 weeks, both the soil method and the water method works, thanks so much for watching and wishing you a wonderful plant powered day XXXX
Hello, I have a very large snake plant that I’ve had for about two years that suddenly this summer began rotting. There are still some pieces in the pot that seem to be doing okay and still have roots. Should I repot them to a smaller pot? I want to save what is still healthy. It’s making me so sad!!
So sorry to hear about your Snake plant, I would remove the whole plant out of its pot and separate all the pieces that have roots and all look good, and pot them up into a smaller pot with well draining soil, and keep the soil mostly dry to let the plant recover, I hope you will be able to save it, thanks so much for watching and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a super Sunday XXXX

Oh Lyn mine did that in the damp of the uk 😂😂 I haven’t bought any sanservia because they are so expensive nowadays there about £30 I’m not paying that I mean for rarer plants yes but not sanseveria
It´s so many different spieces Ben... The common one is £30 a over prize absolutly!
Fam. Cactaceae and other beauties I know 😢

I put my sansaveria leaf cutting directly in to the soil
I forgot to callus it. Can it still work?
Hi Ellen :-D if the soil was dry and you didn't water it it may be ok, but if you put the cutting into damp soil or you watered it then its best to remove it and make a clean cut again, and allow the cut to callus fully first, good luck with your cutting and thanks so much for watching XXXXX

Hello i May have accidentally destroyed my sansivieria. I have literally zero knowledge with plants but this one’s a special gift and i want to save it.
The thing is the plant is token size, really tiny (for tabletop aesthetics), and some leaves are very weak they’re like wet paper. Some leaves are wrinkled (not as strong as in this video) but they’re firm enough to stand on their own. What can i do? Thanks a lot
The leaves are still retaining their color even at the bottom parts but theyre just really soft and weak and very waxy at the base
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 leave looks good AND I wasn't sure what to do about it, should I just propagate or leave it alone ?
Hi there :-D I would definitely cut the leaf with the black off from the rest of your Sanseveria plant, if the other leaves on your plant look healthy I would leave the plant as it is, but definitely remove the leaf that has the black on, happy growing, and wishing you a wonderful plant powered Sunday XXXX

Hi Hayla, you can cut off the parts that have rotted without propagating them, but if the rot has spread into the base its best to propagate completely, thanks so much for watching and have a wonderful day XXXX

My limbs of my plant are just falling out of the pot. Can I try to just repot it with new soil?
Hi Terry :-D its best to remove the whole plant from the pot to check that there is no signs of rot at the base, and to check that the roots are all ok, sometimes the stems can fall over if there is root or base rot, but when they need repotting the stems can also fall over the sides of the pot, if all the roots and the plant looks good you can repot with new soil, thanks so much for watching and have a wonderful plant powered Sunday XXXX

The trouble is some of my cuttings have been mixed up and I now can't tell up from down as all the markings look the same either way up.
Hi Ian, what you would be best to do is to lay the cuttings on their sides on top of the soil, and then the roots will grow from the right side, I have cut Sansevieria leaves into 1 inch pieces and lay them on top of the soil and they will still root from the right side over time, the roots will grow down and the new foliage growth will grow upwards and the cutting leaf will die off over time and the new baby plant will take over, good luck with the propagation and thanks so much for watching XXXX
@@desertplantsofavalon Thanks for that. It's very helpful. Ian
@@Ian-gw2vx XXXXX
@@desertplantsofavalon Hi, no roots yet on either side sadly 😥
@@Ian-gw2vx Hi Ian :-D don't worry these cuttings will take a good few weeks even months ( 3-6 months ) before they will root, I have had mine root 9 months later, I bet you will see roots in the near future, good luck with the propagation and keep me updated XXXX
Is Sansevieria turning dark green a good thing or a bad thing?
Hi Carmen :-D the good news is its a good thing, the greener the better with Sansevierias because they have a tendency to go on the yellow side when given either too much light or not enough light, if yours is dark green thats a good sign also some Sansevierias are darker green than other varieties are
Not all my plant is yellow should I separate it?
Hi Regina :-D yes its best to separate it from the healthy parts to be on the safe side, thanks so much for watching and good luck with your Sansevieria XXXX
My boyfriend accidentally fell into my sanseveria...all leaves broke off...🙁...tried to propagate...can the base be saved? Should I leave it in its pot? Will it survive? It was a beautiful plant...very healthy...please any advice? Thank you!

Hi Ciara, so sorry to hear that your snake plant cuttings are rotting, sometimes its not always a success, and if the soil is right and you are keeping the soil more on the dry side it can be difficult to know why it does not work, sometimes this happens to my cuttings too, it can be a bit hit and miss, but its best to keep trying, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a terrific Tuesday XXXX

@@stallionoftheyear4376 Hi there, so sorry your cuttings are going slushy, I wouldn't put these cuttings in water as they will rot, they need to be potted up in totally dry soil once the cuttings have callused over and dried at the base of the cut for a few days, and once they are planted in dry soil only water mist them with water on the very top of the soil until they have rooted, XXXXX
@@desertplantsofavalon I didnt let them dry before putting them in water. I also, completely submerged them in water. this time I let them dry for a day before putting them in water and im keeping them in shade. I kept them in direct sun light at first.

Now that it's almost been a year, what does it look like?
Hi David :-D the cuttings have rooted very well and have re grown from the base, I will make an update video on them in the coming days
I scrolled down the comments to see this comment. I knew somebody else must have desired to see its progress.
I am one year later than your comment. I will now go look for a video in the update ❤
But you'll lose the variegations in the leaf propagation

What should I I do if the rotten part is on top but the roots and bottom part is still healthy?
Hi Anna :-D you can prune off the top where it has rotten and leave the healthy bottom part and roots, and it should re grow again and recover well in the following weeks and months, good luck with your plant and thanks so much for watching XXXX
