Flowering “mother-in-law’s tongue” by malyousif
TheGardenLady received this question from Cathy.
What are the white flowers ghrowing out of my sansevieira plant? My friend had this plant for years and she never got them.
Lucky you!
Sansevieria or mother-in-law’s tongue, like many plants, DO have flowers. They are white or a pale yellow green and some are quite fragrant. Also, you might see nectar balls on the flower stem. These flowers come when everything in the culture is just right- right light, temperature, humidity, etc. Your friend might not have had them growing in this optimum situation or it might have been just ready to bloom when she gave the plant to you. You are lucky to be able to see the flowers in your home. This is not a usual event. So sit back and enjoy the flowers, even though they are not that showy.
