Spider Plant

The Spider plant is a flowering perennial native tropical South Africa. The leaves of the spider plant are thin ribbon like strands which end in a point and grow upward and bend downward giving it the look of a spider. The Spider plant produces small white flowers that grow along a long stalk independent to the leaves of the spider plant. Also known for their air purifying qualities, the spider plant is a great companion to any household of office.

PLANT CARE

• This plant prefers to be kept moderately moist, so water it thoroughly once a week and let the soil dry out slightly between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so be sure not to let the plant sit in standing water.
• This will thrive in bright, indirect light but can also tolerate low light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves. If the plant is not getting enough light, the leaves may turn yellow and the plant may stop producing runners.
