I have just always tried to be careful not to overwater them. My “old lady” has gotten too tall for the kitchen counter now so she’s moved to the living room. I need to make sure she’ll get enough light and won’t be in the draft from the heater vent in the winter.
I literally wrestled a huge Sansevieria (Dracaena) Zeylanica from my dantist's office. They had 3 huge tightly stuffed plants and all were drastically overwatered. They gave me one. When I took it out of the pot - what I saw in that liquid dirt (I cannot even call it soil) - I don't even want to describe. Anyway - I cleaned the roots, cut the damaged ones, dried them a bit and repotted in 3 different pots with a proper soil mixture. It is such a delight to see now 3 nice plants on my staircase... To me - it is like saving kittens...💚🐈⬛💚
I miss these videos... i wish you did more of these, i remember during covid lockdown, just finding such a safety bubble in your entire channel. I forget about the world, and completely lost myself in your informational videos.
Damn, Summer Rayne Oakes is the only one who is more like a scientist rather than just TH-camr. Sooo underrated so intellectual, I mean Cornell!. Netflix needs to pick this woman to have a show to spread her humble mission along with Sander of course. Summer, Do you have any plan partaking the UN on Decade of Ecosystem Restoration 2021-2030 adapted to your content??? Thank you! LOVE from Equator.
When she was talking about over watering I sighed and looked at my snake plant. I've had her for two years and she's about 1/4 of her original size, mostly due to rot. I've gotten it down now though, she seems a lot happier and is simultaneously pushing out three new stocks! Can't wait for her to be full again. I named her Jane Fonda after the movie Monster in Law 🤭
I too was an over and sometimes under waterer. I bought a moisture probe from Kmart-yeah, I’ve had it awhile-and it has saved a lot of plants lives. Look into one. They’re around under $20 and return the price in saved plants.
This video is just fantastic. I really appreciate the time and effort you put into researching for these :) so much more helpful than your average TH-cam care guide
Fascinating, embarrassed to say that I had no idea what I had bought from Lidl (supermarket) and certainly no idea how to care for them. Have to add, Summer I love your jewellery and your top…. And the pots 🪴🐸
I live in the very dry and hot Phoenix metro. Snake plants are one of the few houseplants that I successfully keep. I currently own a dozen different varieties, sharing pups with my friends. Thank you for your incredible tutorials and staying on point!
I love Snake Plants! I think by my last count I have about 35 different types. I just loved this video. Most of the vids. on-line tell me nothing new or I spot misinformation. You, my friend are spot on and have researched the subject so thoroughly as to teach me new things. This is why you are my favorite TH-cam Plant Person. Keep up the good work and Happy Thanksgiving.
My whale fin sansevieria is making a pup so I went on TH-cam to brush up my knowledge, and so happy there's a brand new Summer Rayne Oaks video on the subject! :D
i'm a chronic overwaterer, i have mine in cactus soil in a terra cotta pot. its doing great. its a cutting from my Mom's 30+ year old plant. i boot it outside during the summer, and oh boy they love it. doubles in size every summer.
Your videos are the best. Deeply informative, researched, and accurate with a consistent and pleasant aesthetic. I like the look and feel of your most recent vids a lot. 😊
@@summerrayneoakes I have a pot of overly grown snake plants. Can I divide and transplant the heavily rooted individuals into water? Or will I encounter root rot??
I switched from collecting different kinds of house plants to just Snake Plants now. There are so many different kinds and varities! I just love these plants. :)
I have never hit a like button so fast on a video! I'm happy I'm not the only person who kisses and talks to my plants 🥰 You are always so informative too. Can't wait to use this information with my own snakes!
You are spoiling us sansevieria (now known as dracaena) lovers. Its great to see again some of the plants you featured in 365 Days of Plants. A lot of them has really grown big since last time.
I can’t get enough of snake plants! This video is so interesting! For me it could have gone way more in-depth, but then again, that’s what the other linked videos cover. Thank you so much, Summer Rayne!! 🤗💚🐍🌱
This is probably the eleventh video of yours I've watched in a row and I want to say that I LOVE your channel (gladly 'liked,' 'subscribed,' and 'notificationed'). You give some excellent deeper science, some useful practical tips, and curate very digestible segments. Thank you and well done! I don't mean to gush, but I love your content! I feel like I know my plant babies so much better now!
I think she the one who always explains intellectually because I have saw people talking rubbish but not about the topic they are supposed to . Ones when I was in Brooklyn I wanted to meet her but I failed to actually to go in her area.
I received my order from Bob Smoley. Beautiful plants all of them. I ordered the assortment package.Thank you for the video! And the video were you mentioned him.
I live in NY, in the summer I put most of my plants outside on the porch. I love snake plants. they can handle the direct sun my porch gets, but also tolerates the darker days of winter inside.
I love my snake plants. I always felt that they were old-people plants lol... but owning some, they are perfect. I want all the snake plants!!! I want one of every variation
Dear, your channel is so informative and helpful for plant growers that I can't express you. Even today's video on snake plants, I had no idea that the plant carrying such a vast history! Thanks a lot. Please keep sending such videos. I am Poulami Sarkar from Mumbai
I had a snake plant planted in a plastic container with very little drain holes and with a regular potting mix with extra pieces of bark. It survived for about 3 months but I just had to amend the soil. I added sand to the soil and drilled more holes on the pot. But, even thought it wasn’t in the best conditions, it’s still grew a little bit because it was outside.
You are absolutely amazing, what a wealth of information. I wish I could remember half the information you have? Lol Thank you for sharing your love of plants! 🌷
Hi Summer! I love snake plants/Sansevieria/Dracaenas. I recently watched your propagating video and was so happy to see this video. I love that you go into different areas in referencing the plants. It's very interesting and I learn a little more, but not too much. LOL! You have some varieties that I've never seen before, but would love to find some day. Thank you so much for sharing! Also, love your ring, bracelet and top!
Love the videos you've been doing on snake plants. I've learnt so much, thank you! I've had a snake plant for about 15 years. It's like a good friend that never gives up on you even when neglected
I only have two dracaena. Lucky bamboo and a birds nest. My friend raves about them so I finally got one. I’m happy to say it’s a great plant. It actually has helped teach me to take care of my sansiveria angolensis. It doesn’t grow like it should so I decided to repot it and water it more on the same schedule as my birds nest snake plant.
Thanks for a informative video. Since watching your last video one of my snake plant leaves broke and I've propagated it in the glass of water after leaving it 24hrs to harden on the end.🤞👌🥰
Awesome knowledge gained...I have 3 tyres of the Snake plant species....the regulator one , the yellow on the edges and the cylindrical ones .....I grow them Indoor . Stay cool N HAPPY n Healthy and ENJOY With Love from SAM Guwahati Assam INDIA
Great video on these amazing plants! I actually call mine Dracaenas without any qualms. I keep them around with my Dracaena marginatas and fragrans and they all look pretty cool grouped together, especially knowing they’re all the same genus now. In fact, when I look look across the board between the leaf shapes and variegation of the snake plants and dragon trees, my eye actually gets it. My attention is always competing between the plants and your amazing outfits and accessories, btw. Lol
Hello Summer, In Mexico, and perhaps other Spanish speaking countries, the name for the Snake Plant is "Espada de San Jorge" (Saint George's Sword)...much more appealing name than Snake or Mother in Law's Tongue :-) . Great video! Thanks!
Omg, I just found this channel, and I’m so glad. So far I’ve seen about your videos, each very informative and easy to follow. I have a snake plant that I purchased this summer and I now know that perhaps I have been over watching. Will check on it this morning...most definitely and Eye poker. Thank you for your channel.
I love these plants. I have one that is over 40 years old.
Please share tips Mikie.

WOW! Forty years! You are amazing!
I have 100 years one.
Omg anyone else think she is the most wholesome endearing woman ever!!

Hi Summer, I love your academic approach and taste for funky plants! Makes you far and away my favorite channel to watch (and endlessly rewatch) :)
I'm glad you like to nerd out a bit. Thanks for writing in, watching, and rewatching at that!

Thanks for your effort, Summer. You inspire me as a plant lover and a teacher.

I am so happy I was born in Costa Rica and not New York. My rainforest garden is heaven.

Good for you! I'm glad you have a baby whale too. Thanks for tuning in!
