Description
Variegated Spider Plant, also known as Chlorophytum comosum ‘Variegatum’, is a classic easy-care houseplant known for its arching green leaves with creamy white edges. Mature plants may produce long stems with small white flowers and baby plantlets, commonly called “spiderettes.” Its full, cascading growth makes it a great choice for hanging baskets, shelves, plant stands, offices, and bright indoor spaces.
Light Requirements
For best growth and color, place Variegated Spider Plant in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate medium light, but brighter indirect light will help maintain stronger variegation and fuller growth. Avoid harsh direct sun, which can scorch the leaves.
Watering
Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil feel dry. Spider Plants prefer lightly moist soil but do not like to sit in soggy conditions. Use a well-draining potting mix and a pot with drainage to help prevent root rot.
Temperature & Humidity
This plant does well in average household humidity and prefers warm indoor temperatures. Keep it away from cold drafts, air vents, and temperatures below 55–60°F.
Pet Safety
Variegated Spider Plant is generally considered pet-friendly and non-toxic to cats and dogs. It is still best to keep it out of reach of pets that like to chew on plants.
Best For
Variegated Spider Plant is best for beginners, hanging baskets, shelves, offices, and plant owners who want a pet-friendly, low-maintenance houseplant with bright arching foliage and easy propagation.
