Sansevieria trifasciata 'Hahnii Green Leaves', a miniature sansevieria

Sansevieria trifasciata 'Hahnii Green Leaves come from arid regions. These plants are drought tolerant, but still require watering.

Take advantage of repotting to offer your plant a pot in which its roots will flourish and moisture will not settle.

Choose a terracotta pot with holes. Pour a bed of gravel or, better still, pieces of pozzolan into the bottom. Then add a draining potting soil such as a special substrate for cacti and succulents, or a mixture of garden soil and sand. For even more nutrients, top up with leaf compost if available.

After removing your specimen, carefully untangle its roots and install it in its new location. Cover with potting soil and tamp down. Finish with a thin layer of clay balls or pozzolan on the surface to facilitate drainage.

To avoid the risk of stagnant water, avoid saucers and planters. If you use a planter, line the bottom with gravel or clay pebbles.

Cutting is carried out during the strong growth phase, generally in spring and early summer.

After a few years, young shoots appear at the base. With a sharp knife, dig up one of these "babies", also removing its roots.

Prepare a pierced terracotta pot. Block the hole with a pebble and lay a bed of gravel. Pour in a substrate composed of one third potting soil, one third soil and one third sand to promote drainage. Plant your offshoot, tamp it down and add a layer of sand to the surface.

Place your new succulent in a bright room, but without direct sunlight and with a temperature of at least 18 degrees.

Between two applications of water, check that the substrate has dried out, as you would with a mature plant.
