Hello, and thank you for responding. Sorry for the delay, but i needed batteries for my camera.

These plants look like they've been in lower-than-optimal light for a while, long time. I love how they get taller to mimic the steps! Hopefully that's a brighter spot than where your benefactor had them.

After a repot, putting a few rocks of significant size around the bottom
can help them stay upright. Some of yours are challengingly tall! Unfortunately, the leaning/bent leaves are always going to lean w/o support but the sections in general should become sturdy in time, assuming the light isn't too dim.

Instead of tying them, and since you seem to have space around the containers, I would trim the bent/leaning leaves off, let the cuts dry overnight, then stick the leaves into the pot. Or other/separate pots if you prefer. Sticking the cut leaves in a not-too-shady-or-sunny spot in the ground outside until danger of frost in the fall is another option that doesn't require you to do anything to tend them during that time, just to bring them back inside before it gets too cold. Whatever sounds like fun, in a year or two, you'll have TONS of pretty, new, much stronger new rosettes (pups.) There's never a reason to keep an ugly leaf on one of these plants. You can cut them near the base, or at an angle right below where the bend occurs. Any size piece of leaf is a candidate for making more plants if you want them.

Tiffany, I live in NY, so most everything has to live inside. I have matching southern windows. I would have to move a couch to give the snake plants that window. I am overloaded with plants, Most of the plants I have were my grandmothers, and when she died my uncle moved into her house and just continued to care of them. Since he has died and some of the plants I have are over 50 yrs old, I can't part with them. So is a south window to hot for them in the summer?

How awesome, grandma plants! And what a fantastic window! Snake plants would love that, the hotter the better.

It's too cold in the winter for them to stay outside all the time here too.

Good to know, now I will need to convince the family to have the other southern window for the snakes...mmmmmmm wont be easy, or maybe I could put a light on them.
