Is this Sansevieria 'Fernwood' correctly identified?

My new babie ;) I’ve got it as a gift recently. I identified it as Sansevieria β€œFernwood”. What do you think guys, is it correct id?I am looking for advice from people who have this plant #SucculentSquad #SucculentLove #Succulents #Succulent #fernwood #Sansevieria #newplant #giveaway

I have one. I don’t know what kind it is. I have three babies so far. You treat them just like you would any other succulent. Sansevieria (reclassified as dracaena) are super easy and very, very forgiving. They can take just about any level of neglect. In the past I had some I forgot for months. Lots of dead leaves, but once cleaned up they came back in a rush!

Brown tips tend to mean underwatering. They don’t like being totally dry for too very long. They live with it fine, but the tips will dry.

These are very easy to propagate. You would just cut the baby from the rhizome retaining some roots. It also propagates easily from leaf cuttings, but it takes a very long time. You can cut a leaf crosswise into several pieces and propogate each piece! Just make sure you plant them right side up. Use succulent soil and keep the soil a bit moist.
I've never seen a post like this from you @vvvelo πŸ˜‚

I love it's little pot, it's such a cute plant!
Very cute!
@PlantMompy Yeah! 🀣 I see! 🀩 it is an awkward post lol πŸ˜†

how are you profiting from this post Vladimir ? πŸ˜‚πŸ€”
@RJG let’s ask our expert, VeronicaπŸ™ˆ
@vvvelo I believe she meant well. πŸ™‚
Ahh it's adorable! And I love the pot with the little legs! 😻 He looks pretty easy to take care of. Probably thrives on neglect like succulents 🀭
@KillerTofu 🀭🀭🀭
Love this! These are super easy to care for; just water it whenever the soil is mostly dry and it'll be fine. Very similar to succulents in that regard- can confirm it will still grow when neglected/forgotten 🫣
@tmbryant37 thank you! I have never had Sansevieria plants before, so I was a lil worry about it.
@SuperblyLilac nice! Mine is growing babies on the sides either!
@SuperblyLilac I guess it is possible.
It is indeed a Fernwood. Mine thrives on neglect lol I water it infrequently but it’s doing well.
Love the lil pot it’s in!
@ReliableAlmond does your plant has dry tips? Mine came with the dry tips, and I don’t like it πŸ™ˆ
@KDkat3 yeah! I agree with you! It looks cute! 🀩
@vvvelo no dry tips (ever).
Bright light, water every two weeks. Treat it like a succulent!
@UberCalethea do you have one of them in your collection ?
Not that specific one but have many other varieties.
Thanks for best answer! 😊
I just stumbled across this website and you might find it useful. 😁😁😁
