Snake Plant mania - I definitely have it. How about you? You may also know them as Sansevierias or Mother In Law Tongues. Whatever you call them, they’re 1 of the toughest & easiest houseplants that you’ll ever get your hands on. From time to time you may find your snake plant leaves falling over. It’s happened to my plants & now I’m going to share with you what I do about it.
I’m not talking about a lot of leaves here; just 1 or 2 every now & then. If a lot of your Snake Plant leaves are falling over, it’s a good bet the cause is overwatering. The leaves, roots & rhizomes (the underground horizontal stem by which they spread) all store water. The leaves will “mush out” at the base, crease & fall over.
How I prune, propagate & things good to know.

Go to 6:15... thank me later!
I'll thank you now!!!😅
Thank you 🙏
Hi Nell, I took your advice and cut and rooted a very neglected snake plant that is over 50 years old. It was a gift to my husband when he was 9 or 10 years old! (I have ignored that plant for years...so the neglect is my fault) It has taken a year, but it is now growing new leaves and really looking nice and healthy (grow zone 6). It has given me confidence to recover my mother in law's Laurenti snake plant that is older than 50 years! It has been a lesson in patience!! THANK YOU!!!
Thank you so much for this video. I just bought a super tall snake plant that has 2 falling over leaves. All the info online I could find said drooping leaves = over watering. Your video is the ONLY place I found info saying the leaves could just be drooping due to leaf length/height. Thanks for calming my freak out! :)
Same here!
Another source said it's due to low light - but that can't possibly be the case for the plant I have.
My 2 snake plants are so big I had to use bungee cords all winter to get them growing straight up again. Seems to have helped a lot!
Very helpful video thank you. I just clipped some snake plant leaves and immediately planted them. So now I watched your video, and I went and took them out so they can heal over for a week or so before trying to root them. Thanks for the advice. And those cactuses in your yard are really neat!
Thank you! VERY helpful! I've never owned a Snake Plant before, then I received one about 8 months ago. After watching this video I now know that I over watered it. Will follow your instructions. Thanks again!
You have such Beautiful plants Neil !!! Your very large cactus on the right is AMAZING !! Absolutely Gorgeous colors and exquisite decoration to your yard !! ❤
Very good video. Exciting to learn your wisdom about our friends, the houseplants. I needed this support regarding snake plant. Grateful to you.
OMG I forgot I could propagate the leaves! My Sanservieria had several fallen over leaves. I will have to retrieve them from the garbage bin!
Hi Connie - I do it to mine every time one falls over - so easy! Nell
Your cactuses look amazing !!!! 🌵
Thank u so much or sharing this.I never knew u could do that. Very informative.
Thank you for this video! I really appreciate the guidance. I’m looking forward to your other videos. You are a true lover of plants! 💕
thank you Nell. I have a snake plant that my husbands grandmother gave him when he was a kid. That plant is at LEAST 50 years old. It's never looked nice, leaves always falling over.. I'd water it once in a while, never really bothered with it. Cut the leaves as you suggested and we shall see if they grow....
Hi Frances - Snake Plants are long lived but over 50 years is a LONG time! You're doing the right thing by not watering it too often. This propagation has always worked for me - give it a try & see. Nell
*i havent watered my snake plant for like 4 months and it still thrives i just watered it a few days ago and its sooo healthy*
Your giant cactus outside is amazing!
Thank you for explaining everything so well! I will be propagating one of my snake plants that has a leaf that’s too tall
Thank you. Great video. I'm going to do this today. I have 2 snake plants that are drooping.
Wonderful video. Very clear and helpful. You sound like my teacher friends.
Thanks Nell, since I collect different kinds of Snake Plants, I found this interesting. Especially since I have some really tall ones. I like what you did with potting different Snake Plants in one pot together. The contrast was really nice. :)
Oh thank you. I did a video on planting that pot & the video disappeared when I got a new laptop. The plant are doing very well & I love that I water it every 3 weeks, even here in the desert. Nell
you have to let them harden once ya cut, for at least 2 or 3 days , then put the correct end in the water to root, much faster and much eaiser, just change the water every day, and only the tip ends, i never try to proprogate in soil, too much rot doing it that way
Happy to know it wasn't a reflection of my bad care. The urge can be to water the plant more which will of course kill it... but this is a great way to solve the problem and also get a denser pot of leaves. I was growing one in a glass vase with water but I am just now learning about the healing over. Thanks.
Nice video! I enjoyed all the info and your delivery :) i think ill go check out more of your videos
Thank you for this video! My snake plant isn’t growing well and falling over! I haven’t been able to figure out how to save it!
Thank you. Great channel, I just subscribed
Hi, Nell,
My name is Glenn Lannen from the uk and I have loads of plants in my home thanks to your brilliant videos. Can I just ask what are those huge cacti on the left behind the sansiverra you are repotting.? Thanks Glenn
Thank you very much dis information...
Will the leafs that are cut still continue to grow? I just bough a snake plant and three of the major leaves have been snipped already. Does that stop them from growing still?
Good information, thank you.
Very helpful , thanks!
Awesome! Very well explained and shown, thank you!
I have a whole bunch in one pot and two of them by the one side turned white at the bottom, got mushy and fell over. This was after about four weeks with no water. I water them about every four to six weeks so I'm wondering why this happened? The other ones in the pot are doing well. I do have a large drain hole in the bottom by the way.
A friend who had a rather large snake plant, gave me several cuttings (years ago) and told me to put them in water till they took root. I went home and immediately stuck them in a small tall glass vase with a few rocks on the bottom, and filled it half way with water. Somehow, (after just reading they're more into dry soil, little watering) they survived and rooted. And have been alive like this since 2010 (I'm too scared they'll die if I change them to soil now) and they've grown to almost 12". Eventually I put them in my bathroom to add some life, where they received little to no light from a small window facing west. They then started to turn a lighter green shade after a year or so, so I moved them back into the brightly lit kitchen. I didnt realize how tight it was for them after all the growth, so I removed the sicker looking leaves. It's been around 1 year and they're all still this sickly light green. I hope more time in the light does the trick! Or maybe it's just reached its end? Either way, I'll care for it till it let's me know which way its going. Thank you for explaining the reasons for fallen leaves and correct way to do cuttings, as I'm now the proud "parent" of a 2' tall plant who has a few of them I want to save.
How long should I leave my propagated snake plant in the new smaller pot for if I did the first way you showed us?
Hello - is it bad to pull out a snake plant leaf that is very loose in the soil?
Lovely ! 🪴😃👍🏼💕
One leaf on my snake plant is splitting I don’t know what to do, any help would gravely be appreciated
very nice~ 👍👍
I love your plants... and I have one sanseviera for more than a year and it has not have any babies!
My mom gave me her plant and a lot of them have brown spots and brow scars. Should I cut them all to the bottom ?
Great informative video. I have learned a lot from you!
Thanks for the video! I really wanted just the information and tips on what to do to save a dropping snake plant though so it felt like there was a lot of waffle and extra information that we could do without. It would be a lot better if you would get to the main points sooner and more clearly. Just my little feedback but I definitely don't mean it in a bad way! Thanks again for sharing your cute plant x
So, where do you put the leaves while they heal over? Just leave them sort of anywhere? Mine is indoors. How do I know when the heal-over is complete?
nairb7523 my thoughts exactly? Does healing over mean just letting them sit out? Or is there a special thing you have to do?
My whole plant is falling over, even the stakes. It's like it's too heavy. It's about 2 1/2 feet tall. I have had it for over 20 years and I don't want to lose it. What can I do?
How do I store the clipping while it heals over?
What type of cactus plant was that is your garden? So pretty 😍
What is that ground cover called in the bed beside you in the video?
Thank you!!!
When (how mature) does plant need to be to propagate? Can I separate my plant into a couple pots?
My friend hired a house sitter who waterer his snake plant every day for TEN days. He's given it to me to try and save. I've taken it out of the pot, cut away the root rot and the leaves that either rotted off or were soft/mushy at the base, and repotted it in dry soil. About 40% if the plant was (hopefully) viable. My plan at this point is to not water it for a week or two. I'm going to try to propagate the leaves. Other than wait and see, is there anything else I should be or could be doing at this point? Or is it all "fingers crossed and hope for the best" going forward?
I hope all goes well, give me an update cus im curious about how it went haha
Thanks for sharing, because my snake plans down 😌
Healing over is that leaving the leaf out of the pot for a few days or planting it right away?
Good info
My plant is almost 5 ft tall and staking it up does not look good. Can this plant be pruned down ??
Thank you very much!
0:30 is it a periwinkle? what is the other plant in the same pot? How often you pinch the vinki buds?
Another informative video , thanks Nell 🙏🏻.
Just one question to know if I got it right : do I really have to wait for a whole month for the leaf to heal ?
Where should I put it meanwhile?
Thanks again.
Moustafa.
Not a whole month. Maybe 2-4 days tops. But still depends on where you're from
Tracy Amor
Thanks for your reply Tracy , I really appreciate it .
Is healing necessary if we want to grow in water????
I wish I would’ve seen this before throwing my plant out. I had moved some baby snake plants clusters from a crowded pot into their own individual pots. The one I put in the bathroom just fell over and it was a little curled on the bottom. I thought there was no saving it. 😢
Hi Nell!
I have just recently purchased a snake plant from an online company.
The plant looked decent, but taking a closer look, there are several rusty brown spots.
At least one of the spots looks wet.
I don’t know what it is, but I do know I don’t want it to spread to my other plants.
What do you suggest?
My first experience with snake plants.
Love your videos!
I wish someone answered this for you... I had the exact same thing just happen to me! :(
Can you just clip it and put it in dry dirt. And let it heal that way?
Thank you mam.
Is it ok to cut the brown droopy leaves on the mother in laws tounge
Do these flower?
New subbie here. Love your channel so far. I see you have crystals near your plants. Is there a reason why? And which are best for snake plants?
It's because crystals have their own energy, and give off their own electromatic wave lengths. Each type of Crystal has different engerys. Like for instance, amethyst, Is a wonderful stone for depression and sobriety. In the ancient times, they would make glasses out of pure amethyst stone because they believed that drinking alcohol from an amethyst stone cup, would not make them drunk. This is my favorite stone. One, because it was my father's birthstone (who passed away on 12-26-2014, Who I dearly love and miss... He was my everything while growing up. Also I have sever depression, and I smoke cigs and I binged drink (1-2 times a month) and I find that amethyst really helps me in my struggle because I used to drink until I was black out wasted, once every week (usually every Wednesday morning when I was done with work for the week. And I used to smoke a whole pack of cigs a day (smoking for 14 years) and now I'm not, I'm down to smoking once every 4 hours, so about 6 a day, and I'm weening myself off of alcohol as a stress control. (My job is very high stress!) To the non believers, yeah it's maybe a coping mechanism, But I genuinely feel better when I have on my amethyst ring, or necklace, or my rough amethyst crystals in my hands. (Or maybe it's because I'm thinking/aware of my habbirs more and making a connection with amethyst and subconsciously cutting back on bad habbits? So yeah look up different types of crystals and figure out what type of healing you need and go off of your syptoms. WARNING!!! This does not replace medical advise!! Please seek proper medical professionals if you are having a medical crisis! But just look into the different aspects that crystals do, and the engery they give off.... It just might help!
Another excellent video!!! Thank you!
Thank you so much!! Nell
What do I do with the leaf to let it "heal over?"
Thankyou
I recently bought some snake plants but did not realize that the leaves were kind of twisting, I read that could mean pests but I hope not!!! Any one know if this could be caused by anything else?
They don’t seem unhealthy otherwise
Some types grow straight, some grow in waves and twists :)
Hello Nell! I'm in a predicament that hopefully you can help. I just purchased the Laurentii, I wanted to try what you did here mixing all of them in one big pot. Unfortunately I've been so busy I forgot. I had left in a not so sunny window. About 3 days ago I noticed that that beautiful yellow margins that I love is fading away. I was so upset at myself. I immediately placed it in the sunny window, a little crowded with the rest, which I should've done since the gecko. I completely forgot that happens with these, but hoping that stripe might come back by doing this. Is there still hope? What do think? Has it ever happened to you, or heard about?
Hi Nell, my snake plant is very tall and has this issue with some of the leaves leaning over. Some of my leaves are curled like a barrel. Do you know what that means? I know I don’t water too much. Maybe my house is too cold in the winter?
I absolutely love your cactus & succulent landscape. Is the small vine you have staked on my left a young bougainvillea? Also thanks for the info on the snake plant drooping leaf. It is exactly what is going on with my two snake plants.
Couldn’t you just anchor it with the stick instead of clipping it and putting it back in the pot?!
Hi - You probably could but you might have to permanently leave the stake in. On SPs most that I've propagated, the base of the leaf is so small it'll never hold the whole leaf up. Gardeing is all about experimenting. Nell
Thanks for another informative video! Do you have any experience with the Hindu rope plant? It seems every website has different tips on growing these - especially concerning how much light they need.
Hi Rebecca - Yes, I've grown 1 in the past. Mine did very well in medium to high light & to be kept on the dry side. I had it for 7 years (gave it to a friend when I moved) & it bloomed twice. Nell
JoyUsGarden thanks so much!
Of course! My other Hoyas have always done well with good, strong natural light (avoid hot, direct sun) . Nell
your elephants food is gorgeous! can you do a video on the care of it?? ive had 2 of them now and they keep dying!!
Oh thank you Cris! I'm doing a succulent cuttings giveaway next month & will be giving away cuttings to that plant - stay tuned. Yes, I certainly can do a video on it. I've grown 1 indoors too. Nell
I'm in northern IN so mine are indoors
Oh I know why mine do 😏 my cat is involved.
HELLO FROM MOROCCO
CAN YOU PLZ HELP ME I HAVE A SNAKE PLANT YESTERDAY I SAw SOME WEARD STUF ON THE SOIL ITS LIKE FLOUWER ITS WHITE😣?????
Might be mold? Are you watering it a lot?
If the variegated leaf is whole will it keep the yellow lines?
The leaves which I've propagated whole have so far. The leaves which you cut up & propagate don't because new leaves form. Nell
This is a great video! Can you tell me would you think about putting string around the whole plant if you have a plant that is spreading out and going a little bit sideways in different areas?
❤
So that's why my snake plant leaves have been dropping! I need to cut back in watering I wish I could leaf propagate it but I never have any success
I have had alot of success propogating in water
You can also loosely tie the leaves together
I've never tried that Janet. Thanks for sharing! Nell
Oh yes - the infrequent leaf falling over is due to weight. If it's more frequent, then that's overwatering. Maybe you're keeping the soil too wet with the leaf propagating??? Nell
OMG Lot's of rambling in this video, just get to the point!!!!!
agree!
@@lallorona3369 i just love the heck otu of her, but i agree, in this one, too much rambling
How do you store the clipping while it heals over?
I like when people show their personality and act like real humans
@@apriljones1296 air dry, away from bugs. Try a napkin around it, loosely wrapped.
Hi , i love you lady 😘😘😘
I talk snake plain but u show other plain
Please get directly to the point.
Or You could find another video that better aligns with your style?
You could search for shorter time stamps?
Just a thought?
did you know there's a "thing" where people dip the tips of sansavieria in PAINT and then sell them as "Velvet Touch"?? Just when you thought humanity couldn't get any more stupid...
This was totally annoying
Too much talking , get to the point
Ramble on, lady. We don't want to get to the point.
FOR GOD'S SAKE GET TO THE PONT LADY
Fgs woman, get on with it
Ok, get to the point.wtf
Rambling to much video did not help me
It shouldn't have to take 6 minutes to say something that can be said in 20 seconds. Blah blah blah... ugh
Blabbering, blabbering, ...
Oh goodness finally finished watching this most watched video. I’m sorry but this is the most dragging video I’ve seen. Please share more educational info & facts not just opinion. Hopefully you’ll be more straight to the point. Let’s educate each other. Thanks!
You talk 99.99999999978654329 % way too much. Get to the point of the subject of the video. Stustustuder
Work on your speech fluidity it made it difficult to watch
@africansnowqueen You don't have to watch the whole thing, have you tried sliding the bar across to skip to further on?
I bought my plant with the leaves hanging over the pot.
Thank You!!
