Spider Plant 4 inch

The spider plant (Chlorophytum comosum) is considered one of the most adaptable of houseplants and the easiest to grow. This plant can grow in a wide range of conditions and suffers from few problems, other than brown tips. The spider plant is so named because of its spider-like plants, or spiderettes, which dangle down from the mother plant like spiders on a web.

Spider plant needs are simple: Place the plant in bright to moderate light in a room that's a comfortable temperature for everyone. Water when the top 50% of soil is dry. Once-a-week watering is usually sufficient in spring and summer; in winter, allow the soil to dry a bit more between waterings. Water until liquid flows through the drainage and discard any water that has accumulated in the saucer.
