Care Instructions for African Spear Plant (Cylindrical Snake Plant)
To keep your African Spear Plant healthy and thriving, follow these care tips:
- Light Requirements: This plant tolerates a range of lighting, from bright, indirect light to low light conditions. It can even handle some direct sunlight, which may encourage faster growth.
- Watering: African Spear Plant requires infrequent watering due to its succulent nature. Water every 2-4 weeks, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
- Humidity: This plant thrives in average household humidity levels and does not require additional humidity. It adapts well to various indoor environments.
- Temperature: Ideal temperature range is 60°F to 85°F (15°C to 29°C). Keep it away from cold drafts and avoid temperatures below 50°F (10°C) to prevent stress or damage.
- Soil: Use a well-draining cactus or succulent potting mix to prevent excess moisture retention. Ensure the pot has drainage holes.
- Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced, low-strength cactus or succulent fertilizer once during the growing season (spring or summer). This plant has low nutrient needs, so avoid over-fertilizing.
- Pruning: Minimal pruning is needed. Trim any damaged or yellowing leaves to maintain the plant’s appearance.
- Repotting: Repot only when the plant outgrows its pot, typically every 2-3 years. Choose a pot slightly larger than the current one, and refresh the soil with a well-draining mix.
