I recently got four silver streak hahnii snake plants in a bulb-type pot, and they were thriving. Unfortunately, I came home to find that my dog had dug them up, damaging their roots and breaking off some leaf tips. One of the plants is completely rootless now. Can I just replant them in soil and hope for the best? Is there anything else I should do to help them recover? They were doing so well before this! Thanks in advance for any advice!

I recommend rinsing the plants off to clean them up, then putting them in a water container to help with rooting. After some time, once you see some new roots forming, you can plant them back in a sunny spot. Just a heads up, it might take several months, but patience is key!
Snake plants are pretty resilient, but they do grow slowly. Your best bet is to gently replant them in some good soil. Just keep them in a quiet spot and give it some time—like, weeks! Also, I've heard of some people propagating them in water, which could be another option if you're up for it.
