Ep. 112 - Spider Plant
Chlorophytum comosum Plant Profile
The Spider Plant finally gets some love!
We share our experiences, care tips, opinions (of course) and even a few stories about this hardy favorite. How can you keep them bright and green? Have we ever killed one? And could this plant be poised for a resurgence in popularity? Just hear Stephen out. Also, if you’ve mastered these, we’ll share a related species that might tempt you.
Mentioned in this episode:
the vintage appeal of a classic houseplant that can endure [almost] anything
why a Spider Plant grows like that
different varieties, and a related species (which we cover in Ep. 138!)
