It’s crazy to think how long I’ve had the snake plant. So much new growth and it’s absolutely thriving!

Beautifullll!! Not to mention HUGE! I'm curious as to what you did for your plant to be so healthy!

Awww thank you! I honestly don’t do anything special. I bought this plant when I didn’t know much about gardening or taking care of plants. I’ve only repotted it once with regular potting soil from the store and put rocks in the bottom of the pot for drainage. Other than that I just make sure to not water it too often and make sure you’re only getting water on the soil and not the plant itself (i’ve had to snake plants die from root rot after accidentally getting water in the plant)
