      Your silver flame is called Whitney in the U.S. I have about 35 plants of many varieties ( ALL sansaveirias) for over 40 years now. Lots of hahnii..the short birds nest type, yellow, silvers, streamers, etc. Wish I knew how to send pics! I am so non-TECH! Can barely use this phone to make calls, ha ha. Just want you to know of the best and easiest way to get rid of fungus gnats that like to fly up your nose if you ever get them! Yuk! Hang a bug zapper lite in your plant room & the little beasties will start to crackle right away! I smile with every zap! None for over a year now, and you can bring them in with any new plant! Good to know! Many Blessings, Rev. Jackie, & Happy healthy plants!😊😊

    Nice collection. I definitely agree with Moonshine and Silver Flame. They look amazing! There's another form of Cylindrica that looks like tall stalks and good for structure. As well as Fernwood.

    You can skip the whale fin. If anything happens to the leaf, it’s not fixable. But I’ve recently acquired a golden Hahnii. It’s a dwarf of the Sansevieria and they are easy to care for, propagate, and share.

I got mine from Lidl. I use a mix of miracle grow soil, perlite and worm castings, although I plan on replacing the soil with coco coir. Good luck with your collection keep posting because I love this plant due to the fact it's so easy to care for.

Because I was in the middle of moving. Avoid Aldi their prices are crazy, I bought 2 dragon trees from Asda for £6, Aldi were selling them for £16 plus they were smaller. I would suggest checking your local lidl once a week, also checkout Asda. Good luck xx

    I love San's that moonshine is huge and it's leaves are mint* Here is a link to a site I sometimes use the shipping can be hit or miss because it has to go thru customs and takes about 20 days and you have to sign for the box when it arrives. But with San's or certain Hoya I've had no issue given they are so hardy. I do suggest look at a few unboxing videos so you get a idea of what I mean when I save hit or miss but if you are looking for more exotic types look here www.newlifetropicals.com/category/3 Also on FB there is a few Sanseveria groups that do sell some so you might wanna look into that as well. Happy hunting! :)

I’m in love with my Moonshine for the same reasons as you but you didn’t mention the gorgeous green edging to the leaves 🤷🏼‍♀️ But what you did mention is my latest desires name; Silver Flame!! I thought it was called Whitney, maybe that’s why I haven’t been able to find one?! Anyway thanx for that🤝Next on my wish list is a whale fin but I’ve only seen them locally (S.Devon)for £7,probably 8 for the smallest imaginable plant! I want one like (exactly the same as) Svetlana’s of Firefly in the Room. I realise your vid, and Svetlana’s, are 3 years old but, well, I’m Sanseveria mad🙃! God bless you 🙏✝️. ✌️🇷🇺☮️🇺🇦✌️. ✌️🤍🇮🇱✌️

    You need to get the Whale Fin Sav. It is a brilliant plant. It's only on leaf and its so unique. Not sure if you got one but, look up Hirts Garden. They have them in stock and they are on sale. I loved the dark sav. Thank you and I hope all is well for you.

    Let you new plants settle before you repot. Sansaveria grow better with not having their roots disturbed. If you feel shoots developing let it be.

    So beautiful. I water my sansevieria every two weeks if their pots are completely dry. Please wait still the last spring to fertilizer and make the dosage very diluted. Sansevieria are low maintenance plants.
