The sansevieria doesn’t care about nutrient-rich soil, but it absolutely cares about drainage.
I use a homemade mix:
• 60% potting soil for houseplants
• 30% perlite or sand
• 10% small gravel
Since repotting it into a slightly larger pot (every 2–3 years), the roots have been able to grow freely—setting the stage for future flowering.
How to know a bloom is coming
Before the flower stalk appeared, the plant gave me several signs:
• Lots of new shoots at the base
• Faster growth during warm months
• Leaves stiffer than usual
Then one morning, a thin stem emerged from the center of the rosette.
Within a few days, little white flowers opened, releasing beads of fragrant nectar. In the evening, the scent became even more intense—a sweet, lightly exotic perfume that transformed the atmosphere of the entire room.
