Spider plants are very hardy plants and make a lovely house plant that especially like cool but damp rooms like bathrooms.
Spider plants are a hanging plant so look lovely in a tub on a shelf or hung on the wall, they have very long thin leaves that are a gark green on the outside getting lighter as they go into the middle which is almost white.
They dont flower but look beautiful anyway so are good house plants for people with hayfever.
Spider plants have big thick roots which store a lot of water so dont need watering as regularly as most house plants, once a week should be enough but you will know if your plant is dehydrated as the leaves will become pale and droopy.
Spider plants produce off spring on stalks that hang from the plant, the babies will grow on the end of the stalk quite adequatley but this puts a lot of strain on the plant and uses the plants water to survive. You are better off cutting the stalk off from plant and baby then potting baby in a seperate pot, before you know it you will have another adult spider plant.
You will never need to buy a spider plant again as most plants have in excess of 10 babies a year and because the plant is so hard all will survive.
Spider plants realy do make great house plants.
