With its long, elegant leaves that soar into the air, sansevieria is one of the easiest plants to care for. Robust, it adapts to all types of lighting and supports irregular watering, in addition to being a depolluting plant.

And thanks to its graphic and designer leaves, it is the perfect plant to embellish our decors!

Few people know that the Sansevière, if well maintained, can also prosper. In this article we explain how to make a sansevieria flower to release its classic and delicious scent.

How to maintain this houseplant?

• Exposure: bright light without direct sun.
• Dimensions:  from 30 to 70 cm, and more.
• Watering: once a week. Let the soil dry between two waterings. Drastically reduce watering in winter (once a month, or less if the temperature is cool).
• Maintenance: every month, or a little more often, pass a clean, damp sponge over the leaves to remove dust. Never milk them, as is often advised, you will only add a greasy film to the foliage. Do not use a polishing product either, as it is too polluting.
• Repotting: the plant does not need too frequent repotting. Every 4 or 5 years, when you see that it is starting to get really cramped in its pot, give it a new container, with a diameter and depth of 3 to 5 cm greater, no more .
  

The important thing is that the pot provides good stability to the plant.

Notes: never cut the tips of the leaves, even if you find them a little prickly. This is where the growth point is. If you remove it, the development of the plant would be stopped.
