Day 25: Sticky sap on my Snake Plant!

Day 25 of flower fever. @MariansOasis was right - there’s clear, sticky sap poised to drip from each bud. β˜‚οΈ #GregGang #SnakePlant #NewGrowth #SnakePlantSquad #planthairdontcare

My snake plant doesn’t have flowers. Do they get that eventually all of them

My understanding is that it’s fairly rare, but when a flower stalk does occur it’s in an older/more established plant that: 1) steadily gets bright but indirect light, and 2) is in a right-sized pot (not too big) with fast-draining soil.

@OodlesFantasy Best medium is a succulent / cactus mix β€” either pre-made or DIY. Here’s a recipe: https://www.thespruce.com/succulent-potting-soil-needs-5211045
