Description
The Chlorophytum Comosum Vittatum, otherwise known as the ‘Spider Plant’, is known for its distinctive long green leaves with a white stripe running along them. This popular houseplant grows white flowers that produce ‘spider babies’, that are easy to propagate to create more plants, which are particularly good as gifts to friends and family.
This hardy, fast growing plant from the Southern regions of Africa is able to tolerate both drier humidity levels and low winter temperatures, although a misting can help the plant thrive. The Spider Plant likes to keep moist, although much less watering is required in Winter. Bottom watering this plant will help prevent water from getting caught in the leaves and causing problems.
