Get ready to be amazed by the African Spear plant, also known as Sansevieria cylindrica (Dracaena angolensis), one of the snake plant varieties and a vibrant member of the Sansevieria genus! It has many other common names, including cylindrical sansevieria, the cylindrical snake plant, the Starfish sansevieria, the bow-string hemp, dragon fingers, and pencil Sansevieria. 

This snake plant does not have ordinary upright, dark-green leaves; they are horizontally striped and have an extraordinary cylindrical fan shape that tapers to a fine point at its tips.The single leaf of this spear sansevieria can grow up to 7 feet tall and up to 1.4 inches wide. 

In the right conditions, these extraordinary Sansevieria plants might surprise you with a small creamy-white flower spike shooting up from their center. While the cylindrical snake plant flower is not the largest or most colorful among its succulent family, it does have a distinct, sweet-smelling, and pleasing fragrance. These delicate white blooms dance in the air like tiny fairies spreading joy and enchantment everywhere they go. It's simply magical! 

Remember, these cylindrical snake plants are mildly toxic for humans and pets, so, it's important to keep them away from children and pets. It is the simplest way to multiply and propagate Sansevieria cylindrica plants. You can either adopt the division or the leaf-cuttings method of Sansevieria cylindrica propagation. While this slow-growing succulent is known to live longer than most other succulents provided it is kept in a warm and well-lit position. 

Watering Needs 

Native to Africa, the African spear succulent plant doesn't need much water to thrive. In fact, it's best to water the Sansevieria cylindrica plant only when the soil is completely dry, which can be once every two to three weeks. When you do water your Sansevieria plants, be sure to do so thoroughly, allowing the water to soak into the soil. Be careful not to overwater it, as this can cause root rot, which can be fatal to the plant. 

But come wintertime (dormant period), you can cut back to every two weeks or less. And get this - any type of water (except hard water) will work just fine! So, whether you use tap or filtered, or even rainwater, your cylindrical snake plant will thrive in no time. Just remember to avoid hard water since this African spear plant doesn't like lime very much. 

Light Requirements 

The African spear plant, or Sansevieria cylindrica survives in bright full sunlight but can also tolerate low light conditions. It's best to avoid direct afternoon sunlight, as this can burn the leaves. 

If you're growing the African spear indoors, place it near a north-facing window that gets plenty of bright, indirect light. If you're growing it outdoors, be sure to provide it with some shade during the hottest part of the day. Without enough light, photosynthesis rates drop, leaves become thin, colors appear dull, there is an unhealthy look to the plant, and growth is stunted. 

Optimal Soil Needs 

The Sansevieria cylindrica prefers soil that's well-drained and rich in organic matter. A good potting mix for this African spear should be a combination of peat moss, perlite, and sand. You can also add some compost or aged manure to the soil to provide additional nutrients. Planet Desert has got your back with our specialized succulent potting mix that includes 5 natural substrates with organic mycorrhizae perfect for promoting healthy roots and happy plants. 

When it comes to fertilizing this Sansevieria, it's best to use a slow-release fertilizer that's high in nitrogen. You can fertilize the plant once a year during the growing season, which is typically from spring to fall. Avoid over-fertilization as it can lead to the death of your stunning succulent. 

Hardiness Zone & More 

Typically grown in hot, arid desert regions, the Sansevieria cylindrica thrives indoors in warm, dry surroundings. If you live in USDA regions 9 to 11, you can also grow these Sansevieria plants outdoors year-round, but they are not cold- or frost-tolerant, so you should plant them indoors or put them in a pot and move them indoors during the winter if you live outside of these regions. 

Keep your African spear plants away from cold, drafty windows and air vents if you are growing them indoors in a cold climate.

Weak pole
Color: Cerulean
I don’t think it’s going to hold up to any windy conditions. Moves even in light breeze. Needs a stronger pole for the 10ft size I believe.

Like Holding a Jet Engine
This WORX WG520 12 Amp Turbine 600 Electric Leaf Blower is an excellent, and powerful product that does as advertised and completely blasts away whatever it's pointed at. I got this product mostly to use as a drying aid when washing my cars, but also to just to clear off the backyard patio and blow out the garage occasionally. For this use-case this product has been absolutely stellar. I 3D printed a smaller nozzle that has a more directed, concentrated flow of air for when I'm using this to dry off my car and it has worked much better than the standard long nozzle, I saw some for sale before deciding to DIY with my own 3D printer, and it was a great way to save some money and make this even more effective at car drying. The power this has at full speed is absolutely incredible, it almost feels like it's about to fly away and I have to really clamp down on gripping it. This isn't for the weak of heart, controlling this without banging it against your car will take some time to get used to especially if you aren't a frequent gym goer. This has worked for everything I've needed to use it for and the price was great as well for this level of performance. It may not be as portable as a cordless blower, but it is certainly far more powerful than any cordless blower I've used in the past. The one thing I'll mention is make sure you have a good heavy duty extension cord to power this, 12 awg would be ideal especially if you're using a longer extension cord, you certainly don't want to burn out the motor by starving this thing of power with a 16 awg cord or something like that. Overall, I'm very impressed by this product and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an insanely powerful blower, this thing is like holding on to a jet engine. 5/5 stars.

Simple, Powerful Blower
Received the blower as expected in a timely manner. Have only used it for one day but pleasantly surprised. It is heavier but easily outperforms my previous corded blower. This is a large, simple, seriously powerful blower. No vacuum attachments, bags, etc. IMO the power is similar to gas powered units. Mine had a variable speed control which is very nice and for the power level it is unexpectedly quiet. Only one possible con to note, it is a 12A motor so a good heavy gauge extension cord is needed, especially for long runs.

Good power
INITIAL REVIEW: Advertising: The blower looks exactly as it does in the photos (despite the cheesy photo shopped images). I do not have any special equipment to test the 600CFM claim, but it seems pretty powerful from what I've tested thus far. All the features, which I'll go into further detail below, are also exactly as described. Shipping & Item condition: Arrived on time in a large box and in good working condition with no damaging. Price: $45.93 - Pretty reasonable considering the competition can reach upwards of a few hundred dollars. Build Quality/Durability: This blower is made from durable hard plastics. It makes it pretty lightweight when you're holding it at your side and sweeping from side to side. The listing states that it's 6.4 pounds and it certainly feels about that weight. I was able to use it for 10-20 minutes and not experience any fatigue unless i was trying to lift it up. This is just an initial review, so time will tell if it will withstand multiple years of use. Performance: Holy cow does this thing blow! (and I mean that in the good way). There is quite a bit of force that is exerted. So much so, that it surprised me when I turned it on the first time and noticed the "kick" on my hand. It's somewhat loud, so I'd recommend wearing ear protection if you're going to be using it for long periods of time. That being said, I've owned vacuums and small blowers that have just about the same amount of loudness, so I'd place this on par. I'm glad that I opted for the corded version instead of the battery one. Sure the cords are annoying, but I feel that the battery wouldn't last long due to the output it requires. That being said, I don't have an overly huge lawn, so an extension cord works just fine for me. If you've got a much bigger area to cover, I would consider a gas-powered blower. I simply don't trust the battery-powered blowers would last long enough for you, and the cords could be quite the hassle if you're having to walk pretty far out. Design/Features: I like that the nozzle has a large opening rather than a small one. I feel like that does a better job and pushing the leaves and grass out of the way than one that has a more concentrated area (despite the fact that it would exert more force). I also use it to blow out the dust and dirt from my garage. That saves me a ton of time vs having to sweep and kick up dust everywhere. I haven't tried using it to dry my car yet, but I'd imagine that it would work pretty well for that application. A feature I love is the quick and easy dial that you can use to adjust the outputting force. Sometimes I want to blow it at maximum speed to get all the grass clippings off the driveway, and other times I want to simply clean off a chair or something light without having to lift it up into space. The cord retainer is a nice feature. Without it, I found myself accidentally unplugging my extension cord quite a bit. A small touch, but the handle is angled upward, so when you're holding your arm down in a relaxed position, the blower is angled in the opposite direction (downward) which is nice. I don't need to "push" the blower down at an angle, thus causing forearm strain. I don't use it, but I like that the nozzle can be removed for more compact storage if need-be. Lastly, I'd say that I honestly just plain like the way it looks. It's cool that you can see the turbine working through the transparent orange plastic area, and it has a nice color scheme and graphics. Overall: I'm pretty impressed thus far. This guy is cheap, light, and powerful. It's fun to use. So much so that I find myself looking for leaves to blow, or dirt to move out of the way just so I can spend more time with it. I would definitely recommend this blower if you have a small to average sized yard. 1-year UPDATE: I've had this leaf blower for over a year now, and it still performs fantastically. It makes quick work of my grass and leaf clippings and doesn't mess around. It's one of the better products in my lawn care maintenance line-up, so I still highly recommend!
