Tips
-Use a well-draining mix to prevent water from pooling at the roots, as Sansevieria is prone to root rot in soggy soil.
- Ensure thorough mixing of the components to distribute nutrients evenly.
- Water sparingly, ensuring the soil dries out completely between waterings, especially in colder months when the plant's water needs are minimal.
Water only when the soil is completely dry. Sansevieria Kirkii 'Coppertone' is drought-tolerant and prefers infrequent watering. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so be mindful of its water needs, especially during the winter dormancy period.
Fertilize once a month with a balanced micronutrient solution diluted in water. Additionally, every 25 to 30 days, applying a fungicide like Conika is effective for preventing fungal infections that can affect succulents.
- Indoor: This plant thrives in low to medium light, making it perfect for indoor spaces such as living rooms, bedrooms, or office desks. Place it near a window with indirect sunlight for optimal growth.
-
Outdoor: When kept outdoors, place in a shaded or semi-shaded area, away from direct afternoon sun, which can cause leaf burn.
