Snake plant left in hot car (very sad I know) can it recover?
Tragically my snake plant was left in a very hot car for way too long. Any chance of recovery? I brought her in and gave her a nice drink of water. In moderate light now.
They are an African plant, so I don’t think the heat will hurt them as much as you think. Was it in direct sunlight?
More important (ime) is the type of soil, and type of pot it’s in. Gritty cactus soil/pumice filled right to the top of an unglazed terracotta has always been the most successful for me. Placed in bright, indirect sunlight. Good luck!

It’s totally fine, they will absolutely recover, water as recommended and maybe fertilize it! I have several they e taken some abuse and keep thriving!

It will be fine, snake plants are resistant to hot weather. If that’s a photo after the incident, i am 100% sure it will recover.
