Snake Plant - Not Sticking Straight Up

8 years ago

Hi there! I'm a brand new plant mom and want to be sure I'm starting off on the right foot. I JUST bought this adorable guy yesterday, after much research about beginner house plants, especially for limited light. Since being unwrapped from the paper he came in, he's widened out quite a bit. From what I see online, most sansevierias' leaves stick just about straight up, and I was surprised to find him consuming this much space left to right.


Is there something wrong? Should I do something to address? Or is it healthy and normal and just a standard variation?


Window is west facing, light is decent in the afternoon but overall limited. Like I said though he's only been here one day. Soil is very slightly damp when I stick my finger in a few inches; definitely not wet but not dry enough to seem like it needs watering. I've done a fair amount of reading but can't quite tell if this case is the same kind of drooping, wilting, twisting, etc. being described by other snake plant owners with problems.


Thank you in advance from a nervous new mother!
