Spider Plant

a.k.a. Spider Ivy // Airplane Plant // St.Bernard’s Lily

Native to South Africa, and with over 200 species, the Spider Plant is one of the most adaptable and easy to care for indoor houseplants. Mature plants will grow small white flowers from long stems of the mother plant, which will develop into clusters of hanging ‘spiderettes’ or ‘pups.’ Fast growing and with its striking arched leaves and incredible air purifying qualities, Spider Plants are a great addition to any living space.

Top Tips

✔ Remove yellowed or dying leaves to encourage better growth and keep your plant looking attractive.


✔ Aerate the soil once a week so the roots don’t suffocate - you can do this by using a chopstick to loosen the soil around the base.
