Hello, I've attached two pictures. The close up is slightly blurry. My apologies. I do not know what this plant is, but I've had it for quite a while. It is the center plant in the window. Recently the newly grown middle "leaf" has began "sweating" (as I call it) at the base and it is marking/scarring the plant. The liquid is clear, gel like consistency, and slightly sticky. Since I do not know what this plant is, and I've never found it in a houseplant book or on the internet, I do not know if this is normal or not and I do not know what, if anything I should do about it. Anyone have suggestions, please share. Thanks so much. Tara
Sansevieria cylindrica http://www.cactuscenter.com/sansevieriacylindrica.htm Sticky sap will leak from this plant. I have one of my own and it does the same. Sometimes the sap will discolor with time and turn an amber or light brown color. I have no idea of why it does this. The plant seems perfectly healthy.
Thank you so much! I was worried my plant was rotting or something. :-( I appreciate the website too. Good to know what it is. Tara
