Just let you know that I planted ten of these last year. Out of that ten, only two some how remained standing, the rest of them some how dried up and died. They were cases that either the part of the plant was not going to survive, or worms. I've done other replanting like this and most of them died
But yesterday I've decided to check this plant out and finally started to sprout small leaves. Look like I'm doing my job well, the other one though isn't growing any yet, but soon.
Did you ever plant something and became happy when it sprouted? this one I expect the most to grow.

@Letranknight2015 Oh sorry , i don't mind those tags actually but just go to read the post .
Snake plant , that's the first time i have heard of it .
As to the plant , it's actually an ornamental plant i bought for the house . The maid maybe didn't regularly let it be aired and sunned outside . But i do , water them from time to time . Besides , i don't have the interest in planting .

my friend it's in the tag, I guess the name is complicated, we just call it snake plant or mother in laws tongue. @SIMPLYD what did you do that made them die? you could just water them once a day after they have been planted.
Not sure if it's decorative but it has helped me with my air problem here at my room. @CaptAlbertWhisker I wouldn't be doing this If i had a window.

@Letranknight2015 Well you can grow sprouts in small containers and harvest them after 5 days. Tomatoes and chili can grow on pots.

Hello @crazyhorseladycx Believe me, I had cut more than ten of it's leaves and only a few of them had survived. I don't even know why I bothered replanting when I can just buy something big, but I felt i needed to make my own.

@Letranknight2015 there's jest a sense'f accomplishment when ya can grow yer own off cuttings/'r seeds. 'n why spend funds when ya don't really need to? i'm purty frugal 'n tend to propagate lots'f diff'rent plants/trees/shrubs/flowers. if'n i get lucky 'n lots survive, i give 'em to folks :D ya know, spread that sunshine 'round a bit?

I have never planted any plants for so long, and yet still waiting for it to sprout. Every time when I see my plant sprouting, I am very happy.
You are really patient and taking care of the plant really well. I am happy for you as it finally started to sprouting. Hope it'll grow well.

Well, they don't grow in a day, or weeks, some takes months depending on the weather. this plant took like two months before it grew @whiteream so don't give up.
