Should I use a large or small pot for Tiger Pilan?

It is more suitable to use a large pot for Sansevieria, but the specific choice should be based on the size of the plant. Generally, the diameter of the flowerpot is about 15-20 cm, but it cannot be too large, otherwise it will easily accumulate water, which is not conducive to the later growth of the plant.

Growth environment: The most suitable growth temperature for Sansevieria is 20-30℃. It likes light and tolerates shade. Watering should follow the principle of "watering when dry and watering when wet", and fertilization should be applied thinly and frequently.

Repotting time: Tiger Piranha needs to be repotted about every two years. The time for repotting can be in spring, autumn or winter, as long as the temperature is avoided in summer when it is too high.

Do you use a deep or shallow pot for Tiger Pilan?

Sansevieria is relatively large in size and is more suitable for maintenance in deep pots, especially those taller varieties of Sansevieria. The depth of the flowerpot should not be less than 30 cm, otherwise it will appear top-heavy.

Ceramic pots and clay pots are more suitable for Sansevieria, mainly because they have better water permeability. It is best to choose plain solid-colored pots, as these are the most aesthetically pleasing.
