Variegated Spider Plant (Chlorophytum comosum) brings light, texture, and graceful movement to a bright room. Long green leaves with creamy white centers arch outward from a clustered crown, creating a fountain of striped foliage that looks especially good on a plant stand or raised shelf.

Points of interest

  • Long, narrow leaves combine fresh green margins with contrasting cream-to-white central stripes; markings and leaf lengths vary naturally.
  • Its arching habit softens a shelf or side table without needing a climbing support.
  • Established plants may produce small flowers and baby plantlets on slender stems. Flowers and plantlets are not guaranteed and are not required for a healthy plant.

What ships and estimated mature size

You receive one rooted live variegated Spider Plant in a 6-inch nursery grow pot. Height, spread, leaf count, and fullness vary naturally. Pot size refers to the container, not the plant’s spread; the photos show the type of plant offered rather than a guaranteed exact specimen. Decorative planters and furnishings are not included.

With suitable indoor care, mature foliage may reach approximately 12–24 inches tall and wide, with longer arching stems when plantlets develop. Light, root space, and growing conditions determine mature size; these are mature estimates, not shipping measurements.

Optional decorative planters

For indoor styling, explore our White BASEL 6-Inch Planter, Black BASEL 6-Inch Planter, White Oslo 6-Inch Planter, or Black Oslo 6-Inch Planter. Their openings measure 6.3 inches; confirm the nursery pot’s actual outside width and height before choosing a cover pot. Decorative planters are optional separate purchases and are not included. These planters have no drainage hole: remove the nursery pot to water, let it drain fully, and empty any standing water before returning it.

Care guide

  • Light: Provide bright, indirect light. Gentle morning sun may suit an acclimated plant, but introduce it gradually and protect from harsh afternoon sun. Dim conditions can slow growth and weaken the display.
  • Water: Check the mix regularly and water when the upper inch begins to dry. Water thoroughly until excess drains, then empty the saucer. Avoid prolonged complete dryness and constantly soggy roots; use soil moisture rather than a fixed weekly schedule.
  • Soil: Use a loose, well-draining houseplant mix in a nursery pot with drainage holes. Our Rich Houseplant Soil Blend is sold separately. Avoid compacted or persistently wet media.
  • Temperature: Keep in a warm, comfortable room away from frost, cold windows, heating vents, and air-conditioning drafts.
  • Humidity: Average household humidity is usually suitable. In very dry rooms, a humidifier may help reduce dry leaf tips. Keep the roots out of standing water.
  • Water quality and brown tips: If tips repeatedly brown, consider filtered, distilled, or collected rainwater, and check for fertilizer buildup. Dry air, irregular watering, and strong light can also contribute; assess the plant’s conditions rather than assuming a single cause.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active spring and summer growth, following the product label for container houseplants. Our 2 oz Slow-Release Fertilizer for Houseplants & Succulents is sold separately. Reduce feeding when growth slows; do not overfertilize or feed a stressed or very dry plant.
  • Pruning and grooming: Trim damaged tips with clean scissors, following the leaf’s natural outline, and remove fully dead leaves near the base. Wipe dusty foliage gently. Do not cut healthy leaves simply because they arch downward.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots crowd the container or drainage deteriorates. Choose a draining container only slightly larger than the root ball; oversized pots can hold excess moisture. Let the plant settle after shipping before unnecessary repotting.
  • Propagation: When mature plantlets develop, they can be rooted while attached to the parent and separated once roots establish. Not every plant will arrive with plantlets.
  • Pests: Check leaf bases and undersides for spider mites, scale, and mealybugs. Isolate affected plants and use a treatment labeled for the pest and indoor ornamental plants.
  • After arrival: Unpack carefully, inspect the plant, and check soil moisture before watering. Introduce brighter light gradually and allow time to adjust. A few bent or browned tips can occur during handling.

Pet safety: Spider plants are generally considered non-toxic to cats and dogs, but chewing can cause stomach upset. Keep plants, potting mix, and fertilizers out of reach.
