Hey Becca, I’ve repotted my Sansevieria to a bigger pot about 3 months ago,however I find that the pot is too big. Is it ok for me to move to a smaller pot now? Would it survive repotting in such a short period of time.
💕💕your sanseveria video! I got a enormous moonshine sanseveria at Walmart for $7.00 earlier this year. Can you believe that? It’s huge and sooo beautiful!
Finally new video! Always pumped to hear from you! ❤️ You are the one who always inspires me to do more plant videos. Thanks again, will go watch video now 😋
Thanks Becca, I love Sansevierias, but I only have one currently and it use to be my Mom's, when she passed away I got all her plants that were still alive, and this one was one of them, it is a birdnest Sansevieria, and I love it.Have a great day see you soon, bye for now.
@@BeccaDeLaPlants I'm glad this plant survived all of the trauma it went through and is still alive, having this plant is like having a piece of my Mom because I know how much she loved the plants she had.
your sansevierias are so lovely!! i only have one because i shy away from succulent-like plants (i'm a chronic over-waterer) but i love her dearly and she really is a trooper. 😊
Straight up ignored my sansevieria that's sitting in an east window for probably over a month and now I have four mature plants and two pups in a six inch pot... Looks like I'm going to the store for potting soil today 😂
I Like Sanseveria,Thanks for sharing..I arranged some varieties of sanseveria in a pot on my channel and it looks amazing..I Love moonshine sanseveria..So nice to watch Plant People..New friend here
I just bought a snake plant over the weekend from my local nursery! How long would you recommend I wait until I repot it? She’s currently in a 6 inch pot and I bought a 7.5 inch for her, just not sure when to move her. Good tips on watering! I’ll make sure to add lots of perlite, charcoal and pumice to my mix when I repot.
Looking forward to the whale fin sansevieria! I can't find in my area! Thought about ordering online but I haven't done so yet. Thanks for sharing all that you share 😁
I just found out that in Europe they use this plant for medicinal remedies ...they cut a leaf, blend and drink ..also they drink tea...I always thought it was toxic...thanks for the video.
Here in Ontario Canada if you buy one that is only 5 inches tall from the base up. It is $4.99 I use Amazon's food grade (safe for pets and people and plants) dust the top of the soil with Diatomaceous Earth. If you put it in an empty dish soap bottle. You can blow puffs of dust on your plant so it won't be too much, evenly spreads that way too.
Your plants are so healthy 😍 And I love your hair! Having trouble finding any of these plants in Nabraska. I swear they sell out before I get to the stores.
Can you do a video on how you do your leca ball top dress? All the vids I’ve been able to find are for planting w/them (soaking them then adding water) & I’m curious as to whether or not you’d do the same for top dressing because...I’m surrounded my fungus gnats & traps are all over the house.
I’m on my 3rd sansevieria, First one, baby moonshine. Watered it once and it rotted a few days later. Then I got a variegated whale fin. Apparently I brought it home with fungus. Cut the main leaf off, trying to propagate it, and hoping the baby leaf will still grow. Today I bought a night owl! This one is clearly very thirsty so hopefully that means I won’t be able to overwater it. It’s too pretty to die
My snake plant was dying in a dark room so I put it on my north facing porch to introduce it to light, and then it got spider mites so i threw out in the side of the house before it could spread to my other plants. I completely forgot about it and the roots turned crispy and the leaves curled up from lack of water. But guess what, no more spidermites. So I put them in a bucket with some solid and I've been keeping the would moist (not soggy) and after a month there is SO MANY NEW ROOTS. Just keeping it moist so the leaves can uncurl eventually
Hi Becca! I was wondering if you had any insight on top dressing for plants like a Sansevieria? I want to top dress them but I was wondering if the top dress would hinder the growth of the new pups that grow up from the soil. I not plants will usually find a way to pop out but I didn’t know if top dress would affect that!
Ive top dressed one of my snake plants since I got it and it never hindered babies from popping up!! I think as long as you loosely pack the top dressing it'll be totally fine.
I enjoy your videos very much! I am a new subscriber!! You mentioned using mosquito bits as an addition to your soil? I have recently learned to put mosquito bits in water, let them soak in the water for a day or two and then water my plants with it. This is supposed to kill fungus gnat larvae and eggs. I have not tried it yet, but am going to my next watering (currently waiting for all of my plants to completely dry out). Can you please tell me how and why you are using the bits? And what kind of results you are seeing? Thanks!!
I’ve also heard that but haven’t tried it! I’m using it to kill the larvae in the soil and I’ve seen some success just laying them on top and watering! I will say, hydrogen peroxide mixture worked faster though.
I love your collection!! Im jealous of that Iron thron Lol the only sanseveria i own.. is a leaf tip cutting that is finally rooted after 3 months... 🙏🏻 and a tiny pup i was able to save from the same mother plant i took the cutting from. I killed it because i was ignorant. Lmao first plant i ever bought so glad i have a piece of it still. I refuse to buy another snake plant until mine fits in a 4inch pot.. 😑
Loved the video as I love sanseverias myself. I have a few more than that maybe 16 of them???? I do have the starfish sanseveria but HOLA yours is big and tall!!! Mine is maybe 10-12 inches tall. BUT he does have a baby in there that is getting as big as the momma!!
@@BeccaDeLaPlants haha yes thats my intentions!! LOL. I still don't have the whalefin nor do I have the bantel sensation one yet. Never seen them around and nurseries don't carry. One lady on youtube named 916 plant mommy collects them and I'm sure she is over the 28 different kinds by now!!
Would like to order a whale fin. Cannot find one around my area. Just saw your video today,8-21-20. I liked and subscribed. Let me know if you can sell me a whale fin, or where i can order one. Thanks so much. Cathie Cash
Hi! Thanks for these videos, I really enjoy them! I just had a whale fin shipped to me and the tip is damaged. Do you think this will stop vertical growth? I have read that there is a hormone in the tip of the plant that controls vertical growth. From your experience is this true; if the tip of a whale fin is damaged will it grow vertically?
Hello friend I just reported my moonshine and wanted to know if you had any tips on how I can make sure it stays alive and how I can propagate one leaf that came off 😢
Om geeeee!!! Thanks for the content de la! I love your personality and your humor :) keep going girl! Also, my bantel sensation looks totally different than yours. Maybe I have something else?
Aww thank you for being here!! Maybe you do? I triple checked to make sure mine is a bantel before I made this video 😂 there’s so many different types!
Becca De La Plants of course! yea mine has a pale white film across the whole thing so maybe just variation in the same species. I’ll do more research!
Hi. I bought today a sanseveiria superba, thought it was Laurentii. It’s in a plastic pot but planted in a coconut husk or orchid bark not sure what u call it.. I need to know if I need to transfer it in soil and what mixture? What will I do with this orchid bark or coconut husk? Only if u have an idea. I’m a new plant mom. Tnx.
I would transfer it to soil. That’s an interesting mix for them! You should mix in that mixture with soil - half and half - and it would probably be very happy!
I just got two long pieces of this plant to redo to re propagate and I'm new to all of this stuff I cut up one and put it in water I was going to cut the second one up and put it in dirt I heard water was faster far as rooting do anybody have any suggestions help?????🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
I love Sanseveria's I have one huge pot and we have toy dinosaurs staged in the bottom of the pot. I figure if people can have fairy gardens I can have a prehistoric garden. Ha!~ I name my plants like if I hit a clearance section at Walmart of Lowe's I give them a name so I can cheer them on to recover.
Ignore your snake plants! They thrive on neglect. My two starfish plants are having babies, and my rescued bird’s nest is popping out new growth like crazy! 🙌🏼 I live by Nick’s mantra (from @phillyfoliage) “don’t water them more than you pay your rent” 😆 So every time I pay my mortgage, I water my snake plants.
What are the signs of overwatering vs underwatering? I'm asking because one leaf turned yellow. And I'm wondering if I need to water it more or let it remain dry longer. I always wait until soil is completely dry before watering...I've been watering every 3 weeks and it's in low medium light. Thanks! 💕
You might be able to wait even longer than that if it's in a low light situation! Overwatering will cause the leaves to look shriveled up or soggy! I'd suggest buying a moisture meter and sticking it in the soil before you water to make sure it's absolutely dry.
What are those beads and how do I get them! I was absolutely destroyed with fungus gnats this year. I had 175 plants and now I am down to 80 :( I tried to google what you said but I think I am spelling it horrifically wrong
Try mosquito bits! They release a bacteria that kills fly larva. I don't know how those clay balls would help against gnats, since they could just walk past them? Maybe top dress with smaller gravel
I think I have 12 types of sanseveria in my collection. They are such a great underrated plant..... I love the syngonium in the background.
12 types! Amazing! & thank you 😁
So slow growing though. I have about 10 of them 2 varieties.

I would die if I found an enormous one for $7! It would be the quickest plant purchase ever hahaha
I want one!
I have moonshines galore they have pups like rabbits !
Finally new video! Always pumped to hear from you! ❤️ You are the one who always inspires me to do more plant videos. Thanks again, will go watch video now 😋
Yay you’re so sweet!!! Keep the plant vids coming, I say 😍
I just started collecting sanseveria. I have 4 now. I am really enjoying them.
They’re fun & easy to collect!!
Love it! Sansevieria is one of my favorite plant fams they’re soo easy and really pop wherever you put them 🤗💚👍🏼
Ah it's so true! :)
I'm jealous of that starfish. I just purchased my first starfish variety and I'm absolutely in love with the guy. Can't wait to watch him grow
Thanks Becca, I love Sansevierias, but I only have one currently and it use to be my Mom's, when she passed away I got all her plants that were still alive, and this one was one of them, it is a birdnest Sansevieria, and I love it.Have a great day see you soon, bye for now.
Holly Hasegawa Nielson that’s awesome plant story about how meaningful some plants can be to us. Thanks for sharing.
That's so special! Im so glad you have a piece of her still ❤
@@BeccaDeLaPlants I'm glad this plant survived all of the trauma it went through and is still alive, having this plant is like having a piece of my Mom because I know how much she loved the plants she had.
"The Iron Throne" HAHA love it!
Gurrrrrlll that starfish is magnificent!! It's a beast!! And definitely could be used as a weapon, lol. I would've totally named it Needle. 😋
AH I wanted to name it needle!! If they were the sansevieria cylindrica I totally would have!
I love moonshine sanseveria!!! The color is so beautiful.
Yes it really is breathtaking!
Yay! Just the video I needed. Planning to buy a Sanseviera soon.
Yay! Happy shopping ❤️
wow that Sansevieria Moonshine is so beautiful, I would love to see that plant in my nursery.
Love these particular plants A LOT! 💞💞
ME TOO!
Ohh everyone is mentioning the starfish but I think the whale fin is gorgeous! 😍
Beautiful collection!! Your moonshine is stunning, love how giant your starfish is too!!
Thank you!! Definitely giant 🥰
That starfish tho! 😳😳😳 LOVE! 💚
Isn’t it huge 😳😂
I found a moonshine snake plant at my plant store for $12.99 there were 2 in the pot!
your sansevierias are so lovely!! i only have one because i shy away from succulent-like plants (i'm a chronic over-waterer) but i love her dearly and she really is a trooper. 😊
Ah, yes, I'm glad you know that about yourself and know what to stay away from! I"m the opposite 😂
Straight up ignored my sansevieria that's sitting in an east window for probably over a month and now I have four mature plants and two pups in a six inch pot... Looks like I'm going to the store for potting soil today 😂
Hahaha yep that’s a sansevieria for you 😂 love it!
A very good plant family 🌿
Thanks for what you do at RUclips! Appreciating your follows.
Thank you so much! ❤️
Beautiful soul and love your plants 🌱 I’m glad I watched your video 👍🏻
Thank you so much!! xx ❤️
These are all gorgeous! I got my first sansiveria yesterday💚
Woohoo! :)
Awesome collection Becca. I love Snake plants also.
They’re awesome. ❤️
I have 14 individual plants in 5 pots...Sanseviera trifaciata Laurentii and Sanseviera Futura robusta ❤
Lovely collection.
The Iron Throne is looking good!
Thank you!! :)
You need more snake plant!! I love sansevieria
Agreed!!!

My absolute favorite plants, I currently have twenty eight.

Thanks for watching!!
That whale fin is so big!! I love the iron throne haha
Thank you! Yes I LOVE the throne hehe
Luv the plants 🌱! What are the beads that you put in the plant ?
?beads?
I just found out that in Europe they use this plant for medicinal remedies ...they cut a leaf, blend and drink ..also they drink tea...I always thought it was toxic...thanks for the video.
Love your dress. I just got the black coral snake plant. Have not been able to find the moon shine.
Thank you! Those are gorgeous :))

Of course! It’s a pleasure 🙌🏼
such a nice video! what do you have in your pots though? i'm talking about what looks like tiny brown balls.
Leca balls! They’re clay beads
Your plants are so healthy 😍 And I love your hair! Having trouble finding any of these plants in Nabraska. I swear they sell out before I get to the stores.
Thank you & thank you 😍 what a bummer! Maybe you can ask them to hold one when you realize it’s there until you can get there!
Can you do a video on how you do your leca ball top dress? All the vids I’ve been able to find are for planting w/them (soaking them then adding water) & I’m curious as to whether or not you’d do the same for top dressing because...I’m surrounded my fungus gnats & traps are all over the house.
I have a fungus gnat video coming out tomorrow!! All i did with these Leca balls is set them on top of the soil. No special method!
Becca De La Plants Thank you! I like the way they look in the plant!
Do you have any whalefin’s for sale?
I have around eight...Moonshine, Jade"Black Dragon"...Trifacta Laurentii...and a few I haven't identified.
I’m on my 3rd sansevieria, First one, baby moonshine. Watered it once and it rotted a few days later. Then I got a variegated whale fin. Apparently I brought it home with fungus.

Hi! Just wanted to ask where did you get your whale fin? Do you buy plants online? Any suggestions where to get it online? Thanks!
I found my fins locally! I know that Tennessee Tropicals sells them online among a few other retailers.
Great tips, love these hardy little guys, they ask so little of us, just common sense care🌱🌵
Off topic but I love your nail color, what is it😛
Yes I love them too! Ah, it's Fiji by Essie :)
Becca De La Plants thank you
Whale fin 😍
Yessss :)))

Hey Becca! Awesome! Love your whale fin! Do you still have any for sale?
I do not! All gone now besides my personal whale fin
@@BeccaDeLaPlants ok thanks! The hunt will continue!
Sometimes Tennessee Tropicals has them in stock! Watch their website!
Hi! Thanks for these videos, I really enjoy them! I just had a whale fin shipped to me and the tip is damaged. Do you think this will stop vertical growth? I have read that there is a hormone in the tip of the plant that controls vertical growth. From your experience is this true; if the tip of a whale fin is damaged will it grow vertically?
I have never had a whale fin with damage on the tip, but I think that is probably correct.
Hello friend I just reported my moonshine and wanted to know if you had any tips on how I can make sure it stays alive and how I can propagate one leaf that came off 😢
Did u have your Whale fin only in Leca ? I’m curious as if I should I just got one 🌱✌️tfs
It’s in soil, top dressed with LECA!
Om geeeee!!! Thanks for the content de la! I love your personality and your humor :) keep going girl! Also, my bantel sensation looks totally different than yours. Maybe I have something else?

Mary Lou half and half of the soil and the coconut husk or bark you mentioned. ☺️
Becca De La Plants got ya.. haha.. so slow here.. Tnx very much..
What kind of beads did you say you use to prevent fungus gnats?
I'm wondering the same thing!
Mosquito bits, or leca balls to top dress the soil
You make videos too!! So awesome 👏🏼 Subscribed 😘
YAY so glad ❤️❤️
You should make a Sansevieria for home defense video!
Hahahaha self defense with sansevieria coming right up
Bought one yesterday for my children. I have the trifascata
Awesome! Seems like a great plant for kids :)
I just got two long pieces of this plant to redo to re propagate and I'm new to all of this stuff I cut up one and put it in water I was going to cut the second one up and put it in dirt I heard water was faster far as rooting do anybody have any suggestions help?????🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
Would you say that snake plants prefer terra cotta or ceramic pots?
Terra cotta!
@@BeccaDeLaPlants thank you! That's what I thought since they're like a succulent!
sansevieria kirkii coppertone is my favorite!!!!!!!
That one is GORGEOUS!
What kind of beads do you place on top of the soil?
That was LECA!
Nice👍👍👍
Get more star fish snake plants and put all together. To make a iron thrown
I have sanseveria color gray and also color yellow..but i dont know what the exact name of them sorry.
Hello Friend, Beautiful Sansevieria :)
Done Full Suport & Like :)
Good Luck :)
thank you thank you!! :)
I love Sanseveria's I have one huge pot and we have toy dinosaurs staged in the bottom of the pot. I figure if people can have fairy gardens I can have a prehistoric garden. Ha!~ I name my plants like if I hit a clearance section at Walmart of Lowe's I give them a name so I can cheer them on to recover.
That’s soo fun!! Hahaha I love that
👍
Ignore your snake plants! They thrive on neglect. My two starfish plants are having babies, and my rescued bird’s nest is popping out new growth like crazy! 🙌🏼
I live by Nick’s mantra (from @phillyfoliage) “don’t water them more than you pay your rent” 😆 So every time I pay my mortgage, I water my snake plants.
Haha! That's incredible I love that :) and it's so true!!!
What are the signs of overwatering vs underwatering?
I'm asking because one leaf turned yellow. And I'm wondering if I need to water it more or let it remain dry longer. I always wait until soil is completely dry before watering...I've been watering every 3 weeks and it's in low medium light.
Thanks! 💕
You might be able to wait even longer than that if it's in a low light situation! Overwatering will cause the leaves to look shriveled up or soggy! I'd suggest buying a moisture meter and sticking it in the soil before you water to make sure it's absolutely dry.
What are those beads and how do I get them! I was absolutely destroyed with fungus gnats this year. I had 175 plants and now I am down to 80 :( I tried to google what you said but I think I am spelling it horrifically wrong
Try mosquito bits! They release a bacteria that kills fly larva. I don't know how those clay balls would help against gnats, since they could just walk past them? Maybe top dress with smaller gravel
Nicole B Garcia it’s called Leca and I ordered from Amazon good price
I’m wondering if I should put my whale fin in Leca ?
Do most of them grow tall?
Yes! Eventually :)
Love you!
❤️❤️❤️
Sounds like you deal with a lot of sketchy people just to get cheap plants.
Lol in the beginning I did quite often. Now I’m much more picky and hardly run into sketchy people :)
