6. Place the container with the cuttings in a shaded area, out of direct sunlight.
These are simple steps that will allow the leaves to expel their first roots in about 21 days.
After a month, the roots have grown well, but since they are resting at the bottom of the container, they are slightly curved.
To flatten the roots, use toothpicks to stick them on both sides of the leaf.
Place the leaf in the center of the glass and pour in clean water.
As you can see, the sanseviera is not only decorative, but also a very useful houseplant, so if you don’t already have one at home, it’s time to get one.
Good luck!
