How to prune sansevieria stuckyi

Any time of year, as needed. Sever dead or damaged cylindrical leaves at soil level using a clean, sharp knife. Never trim tips to manage height — the scar is permanent and obvious on this tall species.

Rarely — only when a leaf is dead or severely damaged. Sansevieria Stuckyi produces very long, cylindrical upright leaves and needs essentially no pruning. Cutting the tips is discouraged — the wound desiccates and browns permanently. Only remove leaves that are completely dead or badly damaged, cutting at ground level. This is a sculptural plant best maintained by controlling water and light rather than cutting.
