[...Hey ya guys, I had been after one of these Sansevieria Trifasciata for a few years now. However, most specimens I had seen were out of my price range, so I left it until I could afford one. I was at the hospital last week and I saw a one on the reception windowsill. It looked a bit worse for ware, so I asked the receptionist to move it to a sunnier windowsill. We started talking and I mentioned I could never afford one.She offered a segment of it for me to take home. I was thrilled! Now, the poor thing really isn't in a great shape, but I can see a new leaf shooting up through the centre, so for now, I am happy it is progressing! Can somebody enlighten me on how to look after it? What soil mixtures does it like? Does it water through its roots, or the centre like Gusmanias? Can it take full sun? How deep should I plant it? Things like that! Thank you for your time as always guys!]
