Hello Marcy,

Its me Al hehhe. Nice to see you again.

Hi Al....yes, I didn't hear from anyone over at the other forum for several days so I thought I'd see if anyone was around here with any input. Ha.
I notice messages appear here almost immediately while they have to wait to be approved over there too.
I also don't think people check the sans forums as often as they do other more general ones. Thanks again for your input on my questions.

I have never grown Sansevieria in the ground, living in New Jersey. But I can tell you that the 'soft leaved' varieties seem to do better in some share, and the 'hard leaved' varieties seem to do better with more sun.

I try to never put any of my plants in an area where they get sun all day - from dawn to dusk. That's just too much sun for most plants. I try to provide at least 4 hours of sun, but no no more than 6 hours if possible. ALl of my sansevieria look great, and most flower when mature.

Sansevieria have a reputation for being low light plants because they can survive these conditions. But they don't thrive in low light. Some people also keep cactus in low light because they last a long time (if you don't water them at all). This doesn't mean that cactus will trhive in low light long term.

Thanks Joe.....that is kind of the feeling I got when I look at some of them. It just seems that they would like more light. I think I will move the one out from under that overhang of the tree and let it get a bit more sun. Also, I guess I will move the other one from the low-lit family room to outside. It is warm enough here now. If I aquire any more of these things, I am going to have to make a special shelf or table or something for them.
Boy, plant collecting requires a lot of room I have discovered. Ha Ha
