The spider plant is scientifically known as Chlorophytum comosum.
Spider plants can grow quickly and easily in the house.
Spiders plants may grow up to 2 to 2½ feet wide and 2 to 3 feet long.
Spider plants grow best with bright indirect light.
Ideal temperatures for the spider plant are between 65 and 75 ° F during the day and 50 to 55 °F at night.
Spider plants form thick, fleshy tuberous roots, and produce shoots at the ends of several stems.
These shoots may be removed, rooted, and re-planted.
There are several different classifications for spider plants based on their size and physical characteristics. The Mandaianum is a dwarf spider plant. The leaves are only 4 to 6 inches long, dark green, with a bright yellow stripe.
The Vittatum is the most common variegated cultivar. It has pale green leaves 4 to 8 inches long with white central stripes.
The Variegatum has white-edged leaves 10 to 16 inches long and up to an inch wide.
