    Sansevieria are among the easiest plants to keep. Mine all seem to thrive on neglect. I like to clean them up in the spring, and add some fresh potting mix, but they don't need much water or sunlight. Good Luck!

    Hope all is going well with your new plant!

    Here's pics of some of mine, spending summer vacation in the ground, then will go back in pots to come inside for winter:
