Description
The Spider Plant (Chlorophytum comosum) is one of the most dependable and beginner-friendly houseplants you can grow. It’s best known for its fountain of narrow, arching leaves striped in green and creamy white, and for producing baby “spiderettes” that hang down from the parent plant. These offshoots can be left trailing or propagated easily into new plants.
This plant is not just good-looking—it’s also one of the best natural air purifiers. It thrives in bright to medium indirect light and doesn’t mind the occasional missed watering. Whether placed in a hanging basket or on a shelf, the Spider Plant adds instant freshness and life to any room.
