History
The Sansevieria is a genus of flowering plants. They are local to Africa, notably Nigeria, Congo, and Madagascar, and southern Asia.

Care guide

Avoid putting them in direct sunlight as this might scorch their leaves. The suggested watering schedule is once a week or when needed. Make sure that excess water drains out of their pot so as to avoid root rot. But it’s also good to know that the Sansevieria plants are drought-tolerant because of their huge water storage. So missing a watering schedule every now and then shouldn’t harm your plant too much.
Propagation
When propagating this Robusta for sale in Manila, you can choose your medium between soil or water. First off, you can cut a few blades from your plant and cut them into smaller parts that are at least 4 to 5 inches long. Place your cuttings then into your desired medium or even dip them in rooting hormone if you’d like. Remember to take note of the bottom side of your cutting because this is the side you’re going to plant into your medium and it will be where roots will develop. Place your propagated plant in a bright shaded area, and if you chose water propagation, don’t forget to change the water every week or when needed. Rooting should take place in about 4 to 6 weeks.
