Description & Care Guide

🌿 Spider Plant (Chlorophytum comosum)

Hardy. Architectural. Air-Purifying. The Spider Plant is a classic, easy-going houseplant known for its arching green and white striped leaves. Famous for filtering indoor air and producing cheerful plantlets (spiderettes) — a joyful choice for any home!

✅ Easy to care for & great for beginners!

☀️ Light
Bright, indirect light is ideal. Tolerates lower light but growth may slow. Avoid intense direct sun — it can scorch the leaves.

💧 Watering
Water thoroughly, allowing the top inch of soil to dry between waterings. Tolerates being slightly dry. Drooping leaves indicate thirst.

🪴 Soil
Standard, well-draining houseplant potting mix. Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogged roots. Adding perlite improves drainage.

🌱 Fertiliser
Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer. Use half-strength fertilizer.

✂️ Pruning
Trim plantlets (spiderettes) as desired. Remove brown or dry tips with sharp shears. Pruning encourages more plantlets.

🪣 Repotting
Repot every 1–2 years when root-bound. Choose a pot 1–2 inches larger. Spider Plants prefer being slightly root-bound but grow well with more space. Propagate plantlets by placing in water or soil.

💡 Pro Tips
• Water less frequently in winter
• Brighter light encourages more variegation
• Propagate plantlets easily in water or soil
