Snake plant not doing well after flowering?

8 years ago

Hi everyone. So my snake plant has been doing quite well for a while and even flowered recently. However, the flowers didn’t seem to last that long and have started to wilt and brown. The rest of the leaves are starting to bend over and droop as well. Is this a sign of under-watering? Or maybe a sign that it desperately needs to be reported?

Can't say. You can't expect it to look like store bought most of the time. Growing in our houses is not the same as a greenhouse. Pot is getting a little small.

You might consider repotting. At that time you will also be able to see the condition of the roots.
