I finally figured out why my snake plant was getting so pale—I was watering it way too much! Moved it to a brighter corner and backed off on watering to once a month, and the variegation on the leaves is coming back nicely. Has anyone else struggled with overwatering Sansevieria? I feel like all the care guides say they're low-maintenance, but I think I just needed to trust that they actually prefer being neglected.
