The bow hemp needs light to grow
Bogenhanf needs a lot of light for fast growth
Sansevierien - which are also known under the trivial name Bogenhanf or mother-in-law tongue, are available in many different versions. Some breeds have broad, marbled leaves, others are round and monochrome green. Some varieties can grow up to 150 centimeters, while others remain surprisingly small. However, they all have in common that their growth is slow.

Has become, can go from several years to decades in the country. However, you can accelerate the growth of the plant by providing a good supply of fertilizers, sufficiently large pots - the growth of rhizomes and thus the growth in width is limited only by the size of the planter - and provide plenty of light for the best conditions.
Tips
