How hard are S. Kirkii to grow?

It can't be that hard, he has already said "ain't nobody got time fuh dat" re: difficult to cultivate plants.

I didn't mean it in a derogatory way but in the sense that you literally don't have the time with your priorities that you have :)

please forgive me for not being clear!

it's a good thing, stick...what nickname do you prefer on the board? Or just your real name is fine?

Laticauda no problem and no offense taken. Love growing all kinds of things! I like all the kirkiis I lost my 'silver blue' last winter and that is one I would like to get again. 'Coppertone' is a beauty and worth some space for sure!

woodnative where do you get your Sans. from?

Sans2014 mostly from the good folks here! I got one from ebay and think I ordered three from glasshouseworks. I had a kirkii 'Silver Blue' that rotted on me for unknown reasons last year. That is one I want to replace. I also had a kirkii 'pink form' I had bought which I liked but got too big and I had to get rid of that one. I think I know how to grow them well. Although beautiful I have problems growing the extreme variegates like S. trifasciata 'Craigii' and 'Forescate'. Both of these are drop-dead gorgeous plants and I can do well with them when tiny but when they need more space I have problems getting them good locations regarding light and warmth through the winter. I know HOW to grow them.......and I could probably adjust my growing conditions with equipment and modifications to grow them......but with family and work and other things it is easier to grow the ones I DO like and do well for me. There are a few I will always keep I think. A couple of the hahnis as I like them and they fit well on a windowsill. Favorites include 'Streaker', 'Jade Dwarf Marginated', 'Silver Frost'. the latter is variable........and I kind of enjoy the variability of the unstable variegates......each new pup and leaf is a little different. I love S. t. future 'Striated', and the taller S. trifasciata 'Wagner's Gold' for that reason. I also like my yellow parva and S. senagambica variegated and S. 'White striped Giant' and S. cylindrical variegated (a little harder and larger than the others) for same reason........each pup different. S. kirkii 'Coppertone' is a beauty for the coloration, as is that tall 'Siam Silver' I have in a bucket (see other thread). Oh, I forgot S. masoniana variegated.........how could I forget that as it is near the top of my favorites.......I am willing to give that one a little more shelf space. There were others I like but no longer have......S. patens comes to mind is a nice species and easy. I have too many types as it is, LOL!
I first got into Sans by accident.....I like all plants, and was looking on here. There are old threads on here form Joe DeRosa...who lives near my work (although has since disappeared unfortunately) and Russ Hammer who is on the list who both got me some "new types" in trade. Later Mike L and others here also helped in trade. All GREAT people. Oh my first S. hahni 'Silver Frost' came from Norma Lewis just for being interested in Sans. Sans when into sort of a boom in popularity about the time I got interested in them.....and several years ago now. At that time prices on ebay etc. skyrocketed for a while. S. masonianas variegated were going for well over $100.00 each for small, single leaf plants. Anything being sold by Juan Chahinian went for high prices.........variegated pinguiculas of his were selling for well over $1,000 or $2,000 each on ebay. Fun to watch. In any case, things seem to have settled down a bit. Unusual types can be hard to find but there is plenty out there to choose from. That was probably a longer answer than you wanted.....

Great answer, actually! We so rarely get such a detailed answer from Super Dads.

woodnative thank you for your remarks! I enjoyed reading your personal voyage to Sanseveria collecting! If you ever feel inclined to have one of my extremely rare and impossible to find "Pine Island" Hahnii, (LOL, a standard S. trifasciata Hahnii that came from my old house in Florida), just let me know.
