@ValidBismarckia · Answer

This is actually a Dracaena not a snake plant.Sorry but not sure which Dracaena it is.

@Araceae · Answer

It's a Dracaena fragrans, Cornstalk Dracaena. Not a Snake Plant, Sansevieria. How's the humidity?

@MainerMama17 · Answer

Maybe needs a little bigger pot?

@MainerMama17 · Answer

Yes I think with some GOOD sunlight, fresh succ soil and a wipe down, he will make it!

Hi Rebecca!

It looks like your plant is too close to the heating vent.

My recommendation would be to move him away from any heating system and get a good humidifier, if you don't already have one...   🙋👍💕

@ILoveMyPlants · Answer

@NobleBanana  You got some good advice above. I thought it may be a water issue. Once you’ve changed the information on this plant it should help also these two plants have very different watering needs.

@NikkiBplantmom · Answer

That is a dracaena lemon lime warneckii not a snake plant. She needs some humidity and only water every 17 days.  I have 12 dracaena plants and mist every day if you don't have a humidifier. And check the roots incase it needs to be repotted

@MilkyParfait · Answer

Check if it needs a repot

@CuteChollipo · Answer

Perhaps an 8" clay pot, potting soil with some perlite and gravel mixed in and " of gravel in the bottom. Corn Plants like bright indirect light, a home that provides support for their roots, so about 1-2 inches of  space around the root ball, and well draining soil.
