Sanserveria Cylindria plants are a unique succulent plant for use in your indoor office locations. Resembling an aloe plant, sanserveria cylindria are much easier to care for indoors.
Sansevieria cylindrical is only new to the United States. People in the United Kingdom and Australia have been growing them for some time. Sometimes called the African spear plant, the Sansevieria cylindrica has all the ease and durability of the popular snake plant and the appeal of lucky bamboo. The plant consists of stout, cylindrical spears that spring from the sandy soil. They can be braided or left in their natural fan shape. Best of all, they can be almost ignored and the plant will thrive.
Growing Conditions:
Light:Bright, filtered light, but highly tolerant.
Water: Can survive long periods of drought. Water monthly or less in winter, weekly or every other week in summer.
Temperature: Above 50ºF, but can survive cold spells.
Soil: Use a fast-draining cactus mix.
Fertilizer: Feed during growing season. Do not feed during winter.
Propagation:
African spears can be divided when several spears are present, but it's usually best to buy a new plant.
Repotting:
Repot annually or every other year in the spring. They will survive being root bound.
