Spider Plant

Chlorophytum comosum ‘Variegatum’

We grow spider plant by the thousand because it does something almost nothing else does: it fills a shaded bed fast, holds crisp cream variegation all year, and costs almost nothing. Under trees, along a north wall, in the awkward strip beside a driveway — this is the plant that closes those gaps.

It also propagates itself. Mature clumps throw long stems tipped with miniature plants; peg one down onto soil and it roots in a fortnight. A single tray of plugs becomes a full border within two seasons.

  • Thrives in shade where grass and most groundcover fail
  • Propagates itself from runners — one tray fills a border
  • Holds cream variegation year-round, no flowering season to wait for

How to look after your Spider Plant

Written for Pakistani conditions — long hot summers, dry winter air, and hard tap water. Follow this rather than advice written for a temperate climate.

Light
Sun to partial shade. In the hottest months, afternoon shade keeps colour better.
Water
Keep evenly moist while establishing, then water when the top few centimetres dry.
Humidity
Ambient.
Soil
Any reasonable garden soil with drainage.
Feeding
Light feed in spring. Over-feeding causes soft growth that flops.
Temperature
10–40°C.

If something goes wrong

Bare, woody centre with growth only at the edges

Why it happens: Age.

What to do: Cut back hard in spring, or lift and replant the vigorous outer sections.

Grey mould in dense patches

Why it happens: Poor airflow in humid weather.

What to do: Thin the planting and avoid overhead watering.
