Sansevieria Cylindrica (Dracaena angolensis)

 Sansevieria Cylindrica (Dracaena angolensis)

 

 Sansevieria cylindrica 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 offers 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 entirely ignored and still thrive.

 

 

 

 

Growing Conditions

• Light: Indoor plants prefer bright, filtered light, but the plants are highly light-tolerant. Outdoors, Sansevieria grows well in shaded or partially shaded areas.
•  
• Water: The plant can survive long periods of drought. Water it monthly or less in winter; water it weekly or every other week in summer.
•  
• Temperature: Temperatures above 50 F are best, but it can survive cold spells. Generally, they do best in temperatures that are comfortable to humans: above 50 and below 85 F.1
•  
• Soil: the Fast-draining cactus mix is preferred.
•  
• Fertilizer: Feed the plant during the growing season. Do not feed it during winter.

 

 

 

Propagation

Sansevieria grow with rhizomes. African spears can be divided when several spears are present. Whole plants can be propagated by cutting the rhizome close to the plant's leaves, letting the cut heal over for a couple of days, then burying the plant in a cactus mix or similar potting soil. Covering just the crown of the plant; do not cover the leaves.
