What size of pot for a 12 in tall snake plant

#Dracaena
6ft to light, indirect
4” pot with drainage
Last watered 1 week ago
@PrincelyOkra very beautiful snake. Looks really healthy. I would only repot if the roots are coming out of the bottom.
However I’d never go up but 1size and uses a succulent, rocky with perlite and orchid bark for fast draining. Too much soil will keep it wet longer! Only water when dry! They thrive on dryness: they don’t like a lot of moisture and they love bright-indirect sunlight. Rotate it so that all sides get sun evenly. They also like their leaves to be dust free for better growth. Helps the plant to look even more beautiful.
Hope that helps
I agree with Sherri. I have 2 snake plants and they were all in a pot of their own. Roots coming out the bottom and top- but I didn’t have 3 new pots- so I put all 3 in one pot, where they’ll stay for a while. They seem to like it, even tho a bit snug. They’re on my back patio, outdoors getting early AM sun and then shade after 11am. The tallest leaves are 28 1/2 inches.
@SillyPlantGirl wow Catherine I have a couple new ones, I propped them and now they have babies. I love it, congratulations i think it’ll be just fine snug!
This is my tallest and oldest. It’s in a corner in my my bedroom. Thank you so much for sharing
@Preciousplants1 Sherri!! Ong I thought mine was talk! Yours is growing into a tree!!! Your new ones look amazing too…I love snake plants- especially all the different types.
@SillyPlantGirl gm Catherine thank you: the tallest on had been in my bedroom all year: yes it’s really grow πŸ‘πŸ½ I use a grow light for it.

The ones on the windowsill are from propagation. Had my 🀞hoping they would survive.

I love the ones with the yellow (I had a huge one but hubby decided to help me water and ☠️it😒) finally got baby one a couple weeks ago πŸ‘πŸ½. πŸ™πŸ½
