3" Spider Plant

Product Description:

Brighten up your home with the Spider Plant (Chlorophytum comosum), a classic and charming houseplant known for its arching, striped leaves and cascading “babies.” This resilient plant is celebrated for its easy-care nature and air-purifying qualities, making it a favorite for indoor gardeners of all levels. The Spider Plant thrives in various conditions and adds a fresh, green touch to any room, whether placed in a hanging basket or on a shelf.

How to Grow Spider Plant:

1. Light: Spider Plants prefer bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. Direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, so it’s best to provide filtered light or partial shade.

2. Watering: Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry. This plant enjoys regular watering but is forgiving of occasional missed waterings. Ensure the pot has good drainage to prevent waterlogging and root rot.

3. Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix. A standard houseplant mix will work well, but adding perlite or sand can enhance drainage and prevent overwatering.

4. Humidity: Spider Plants adapt to a range of humidity levels. While they prefer average to high humidity, they are tolerant of dry indoor air and can thrive in typical household conditions.

5. Temperature: This plant thrives in temperatures between 65°F and 75°F (18°C - 24°C). Avoid exposing it to temperatures below 50°F (10°C) and cold drafts.

6. Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding in the fall and winter when growth slows.

7. Repotting: Repot every 1-2 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Spring is the best time for repotting, allowing the plant to establish itself during the growing season.

1/5 – The Spider Plant is extremely easy to care for, making it perfect for beginners. Its adaptability to various light and watering conditions, along with its resilience, make it a low-maintenance and rewarding addition to any indoor space
