What Do You Get: A very similar plant to the images.

CARE TIPS:

Light:
Sansevieria trifasciata 'Hahnii' prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light conditions as well. It's adaptable to various light levels.
Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight, as this can scorch the leaves, especially in hot climates.

Watering:
Allow the soil to dry out partially between waterings. Sansevieria 'Hahnii' is drought-tolerant and is more likely to suffer from overwatering than underwatering.
Water sparingly, especially during the winter months when the plant's growth slows down.
Ensure that the pot has proper drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.

Soil:
Plant your Sansevieria trifasciata 'Hahnii' in well-draining soil. A cactus or succulent potting mix works well, or you can mix regular potting soil with perlite or sand to improve drainage.
Sansevierias are adaptable and can tolerate a wide range of soil conditions.

Temperature:
Maintain temperatures between 60-85°F (15-29°C). Sansevieria trifasciata 'Hahnii' is relatively tolerant of temperature fluctuations but prefers warmer conditions.
Protect the plant from cold drafts and sudden temperature drops, especially during the winter months.

Humidity:
Sansevieria trifasciata 'Hahnii' is not picky about humidity levels and can tolerate both low and high humidity environments.
However, it can benefit from occasional misting or wiping of the leaves to remove dust and improve the overall appearance of the plant.

Fertilizing:
Feed your Sansevieria trifasciata 'Hahnii' with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).
Reduce or stop fertilizing in the fall and winter when the plant's growth slows down.

Pruning:
Sansevieria trifasciata 'Hahnii' rarely requires pruning. However, you can remove any dead or yellowing leaves as needed to maintain the plant's appearance.
Use clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears to make clean cuts and prevent the spread of disease.

Pest Control:
Sansevierias are relatively pest-resistant, but they can occasionally attract spider mites, mealybugs, or aphids.
Inspect the plant regularly for signs of pests, such as webbing, sticky residue, or distorted leaves. Treat any infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
