Love sansevieria ! I was surprised a few years ago when I had one that bloomed. It was actually very root bound , so much so that it later broke its terra cotta pot . Loved that surprise bloom. Glad you’re doing well 💚🌿💚
@@carmenwhitehead i've read somewhere that it is "forced" to bloom when root bound.not sure though, but on my trifasciata laurentii & bacularis, yup, they did bloom only when the pot was almost full on top..maybe its true?
Nice to share the love, sharing is caring🥰your mom will love her new moonshine Carmen. I did not realize that watering right after a repot can cause root rot and that waiting for a week or so is best, thank you so much for that. I’ve been guilty of it 🤭
I use that rule for my succulent type plants Elizabeth. Especially if I've cut roots like I did with this one. But, a regular foliage plant that had no root damage, you can water.
The Sansevieria moonshine are very healthy and beautiful. A piece of paper blocks water drain holes and keep soil moisture for a long time will make roots rot.
I want to give you 2 thumbs up but it only allowed 1 so here is another one for you👍 I enjoyed watching your videos as always, especially the repotting. It's very ZEN🙏 thank you!!
I just found one at Lowe’s in Mesa, so glad I watched your video, didn’t know I wasn’t supposed to water right away, I’m going to get some Little Rock for the top that looks so nice, Thank You Carmen
That Moonshine is going to have some nice room to stretch., your Mom will treasure it! My best reasonable plants have been from Walmart.. I'm still looking out for the new shipment 🤣 Take Care ☀️
For my Cacti and succulents I use Miracle gro cactus mix and I add some perlite for better drainage. For my tropical foliage I mix my own (I do have a video on this) Coco coir, orchid bark, perlite and worm castings. For my Hoyas I mix cactus soil, orchid bark and perlite. Hope this helps.
I do keep some of my Sansevierias outside and they do well. They only get some morning sun and shade the rest of the day. You want to be careful of too much rain if you live somewhere that it rains a lot. Hope this helps.
Hi Carmen it’s me Dorothy again........my senserveria Whale’s fin plant has a pup the height of the mother....Carmen I am worried in the center of my whale’s fin plant it is wrinkled..I always use my moisture tool and it says moist it only dry on top of soil but when I go deeper it is moist I am confused..and the big leaf is not flat. It sort of look a little wavy.....the mother plant is 16 inches high and the pup is 13 inches high I don’t want to lose it u know they are so expensive according to the height....I am so blessed a friend that is the manager of this nursery gave it to me as a friendship gift...Carmen I was so overwhelmed that I got tearful......I have had so many people tell me that I am a very pleasant person. And every time I call or talk to anyone it’s always the right time I don’t try to be funny but my personality with people always make them feel better when I talk to people they always feel better....And that makes me feel like I am to always cheer them up .its just my personality...thank for taking the time to listen and respond back too me....Oh Carmen I get my happiness and joy knowing that I helped someone laugh instead of being SAD.......thank u again Carmen I will feel better about my Whale’s fin when u answer..... I love your curly hair.....so beautiful.......God bless u and all my UTube plant friends ❤️❤️😇❤️❤️
Hi, last month I did put cinnamon on the baby plant and mother plant but the baby keeps rotting and died, the mother plant does not look healthy, what did I do wrong?
Hi Carmen can I put some cinnamon on my whale’s fin plant root ball like u did to your moonshine plant to prevent root rot..I hope so...and when shall I water it after repotting it........Thank u....God Bless u and Family❤️❤️😪❤️❤️
Yes, the Cinnamon is a natural anti-fungus, it won't hurt it. I wait a week before watering if it's a fresh cut. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
Carmen one more thing.....I always value your knowledge About plants..Shia leave the two whales fin together or separate them....and when can I give it some fish emulsion thank u for always taking the time to help me save my plants. She I leave whale’s fin outside or keep inside as a house plant. The rootball mabe amedium size shall I do a 6 inch planter or smaller.......thank u for helping me.i value your knowledge and opinion.🥰😇
It depends on the season. In the balcony during Summer, every 5-7 days. In Winter every 2 weeks if it's not raining. Inside plants for Summer are every 7-10 days, Winter every 2-3 weeks. Other factors are the type of pot they're in (ceramic or terra cotta).
@@carmenwhitehead ya so many factors. . My flat is facing south_west,inside we had 27 celcius since march,i m repotting ph. Brasil at the moment(wet long roots) sansi i water maybe every other month or less, air humidity seems to be higher in austria (?), plants do their own thing i guess. . 🤔🍀greetings
During the Spring and Summer (when it's hotter) I will probably water every 2 weeks if inside, every 10 days if outside. During Fall & Winter about every 3-4 weeks. BUT, I always use a moisture meter with all my Sansevierias to ensure they are completely dry. Then I do water thoroughly until drains out. Hope this helps.
Sorry about that. Yes, it is ok to remove that many roots. I did not water them for about 2 days after repotting. Both repottings are doing great now. Thanks for watching!
@@bookfan22 No, it's not necessary. If you notice in the video I added it to one plant and not the other. I decided to do that one to see if there was a difference. Rally there wasn't.
Beautiful healthy looking plant. Thanks for sharing and kisses to Rosie.
Thanks for sharing your lovely Sansevieria Moonshine.!
Saludos. Buen. Video. Gracias. Yo. Tambien. Tengo. Esa. Planta. Muy. Linda
That moonshine is gorgeous! Love em
She's really a beauty and now she's two beauties! Thanks for visiting my friend!

Yes, they do bloom. I haven't had one bloom yet, but I remain hopeful. Thanks for visiting!

Love that rug outside!
Thanks, it comes in handy if I'm out there bare foot.
They look great!! 😍 Love the Moonshine! ❤️
I bet they are going to grow like crazy in their new pots. Very nice!
Thanks Peggy. I think they'll do well. She hasn't disappointed me yet.
Beautiful plants i find great joy in mine the babies make great christmas gifts
Everyone on my Christmas list got plants from me. All of them were from my garden that I had been propagating for months. Thanks so much for watching!
Love the Moonshine Sans with its sea foam green foliage, such a beautiful plant❣️ Nice relaxing repot, Carmen, thanks for sharing! 🙏🏻🍃💕
You're very welcome Rebecca, glad you enjoyed it.

Carmen great to know, I used to separate my succulents and then water, I was wondering why some wouldn’t make it.
The Sansevieria moonshine are very healthy and beautiful. A piece of paper blocks water drain holes and keep soil moisture for a long time will make roots rot.
My favorite snake plant besides the whale fin!!
Yes, the Whale Fin is on my wish list. I hope to find one.
@@carmenwhitehead I wish you're near me, I have plenty..will give it for free 😁
I can't wait for my Moonshine to get that big. So Pretty! Actually... I think I can wait...hoping it will stay small and cute. Yours is beautiful!
Thank you, I was amazed at the growth it has this past year.
Your Mom will love it😁
Beautiful Moonshines, I love “Snakes”.
Me too Lynn!

Carmen what kind of soil do u use when transplanting.?

Hi Carmen.....will u please tell me if I should put my Whale’s fin plant outdoors or keep inside.? Thank you
I do keep some of my Sansevierias outside and they do well. They only get some morning sun and shade the rest of the day. You want to be careful of too much rain if you live somewhere that it rains a lot. Hope this helps.

Hi Dorothy! If your moisture meter says the pot is still moist further down, then I would wait to water. It's better to underwater than over water.
What are the rock or pebbles for oh and the Cinnamon
The pebbles are simply for decorative purposes. The cinnamon is a natural fungacide. It helps the wound or cut heal.
Hi! Carmen I have a pot of moonshine
Hi, last month I did put cinnamon on the baby plant and mother plant but the baby keeps rotting and died, the mother plant does not look healthy, what did I do wrong?
I'm sorry to hear that. Perhaps the pup wasn't completely calloused over to repot, or watered too soon.
Hi Carmen can I put some cinnamon on my whale’s fin plant root ball like u did to your moonshine plant to prevent root rot..I hope so...and when shall I water it after repotting it........Thank u....God Bless u and Family❤️❤️😪❤️❤️
Yes, the Cinnamon is a natural anti-fungus, it won't hurt it. I wait a week before watering if it's a fresh cut. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!

Where did u learn that cinnamon is good to use to prevent root rot in newly cut ryzones? I'll try it😊👍🌱
I learned it from other plant parents. It's a natural anti-fungus.
Its intetesting how much u do have to water your plants in arizona 😱
It depends on the season. In the balcony during Summer, every 5-7 days. In Winter every 2 weeks if it's not raining. Inside plants for Summer are every 7-10 days, Winter every 2-3 weeks. Other factors are the type of pot they're in (ceramic or terra cotta).
@@carmenwhitehead ya so many factors. . My flat is facing south_west,inside we had 27 celcius since march,i m repotting ph.

I'm giving my sisters a plant for Mothers Day.. so its February and I'm getting things in order now! I have 7 sisters.. 🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴
Hi, how often do u water this plant? And do water it a lot at one time till the water drains out of the pot? Tq
During the Spring and Summer (when it's hotter) I will probably water every 2 weeks if inside, every 10 days if outside. During Fall & Winter about every 3-4 weeks. BUT, I always use a moisture meter with all my Sansevierias to ensure they are completely dry. Then I do water thoroughly until drains out. Hope this helps.
Repotting mine tomorrow it’s in a very small pot
Good luck! I'm sure you'll do great.
Did ended up repotting 2 thank for the TH-cam video
Does any of my UTube friends know where I can find a nice tray to use when I am transplanting.....thanks
The tray I use Dorothy is actually a boot tray I purchased on Amazon. I love it.
I would have liked to hear what you were saying instead of the music. So, it is okay to remove so many roots? Couldn’t hear you as the music...
Sorry about that. Yes, it is ok to remove that many roots. I did not water them for about 2 days after repotting. Both repottings are doing great now. Thanks for watching!
Why’d you put cinnamon on the places you cut?
It helps seal the wound and reduce chance of fungus or root rot. Both plants are doing great. I gave one to my mom and she loves it.
@@carmenwhitehead Thanks for the reply. I've never done that with any of the sansevieria I've cut then repotted. Is it neccessary?
@@bookfan22 No, it's not necessary. If you notice in the video I added it to one plant and not the other. I decided to do that one to see if there was a difference. Rally there wasn't.
@@carmenwhitehead Ok. Thanks again. 🌻
Carmen u can tell me please....😇
Carmen shall I use plastic or terra-cotta planters for whale’s fin plant
