How to prune the tiger skin plant if it is too tall

1. Cut it short directly

During the maintenance process, the snake plant may sometimes grow very tall, and it can actually be pruned appropriately at this time. Use a sterilized pair of shears to cut directly in the middle of the leaf. The cut leaves can be replanted.

Insert the cut leaves into the soil, cover with soil and water appropriately. Finally, place the flower pot in a cool place for 2-3 days. New roots will grow in about 30 days. Be careful not to remove the plant from the pot easily during its growth period.

2. How to prevent height growth

1. Repotting: When the plant is first planted, the pot is usually smaller. However, as it grows gradually, the roots do not have enough space to grow, so it grows very tall. If you want to prevent it from growing taller, you should replace it with a larger flowerpot in time. Only by allowing the plant roots to have space to grow will it not grow too tall.

2. Increase light: If the maintenance environment is too dark, it will grow too tall. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the light appropriately and not let it grow too high. In order to make it more ornamental, you can use wooden sticks to prop it up to prevent it from falling over.
