Bigger spider plants that have thick clumps and dense growth habit and not only fantastic to look at, but also make for a great focal point indoors. If you too want to have a similar one for yourself, well, keep on reading!
Before we start, let us make this clear that spider plants are not going to become like a 5-6 feet tall plant (Though, you can grow one like a tree!). With bigger ones, we mean that plants with wider clumps and dense growth pattern— that’s the definition of a “big” spider plant.
For that, go for varieties likeChlorophytum comosum ‘Variegatum’for its fantastic color combination and spread along with Chlorophytum laxum ‘Zebra’that offers thicker leaf marginsand dense foliage.
Spider plants LOVE humidity (40-60%), and you can actually see them flourishing when they get it in a right dose. The best place to keep them in a home are bathrooms and kitchens that are naturally humid.
You can also keep its pot on a pebble tray filled with water, or get a humidifier and see it grow denser in no time!
Most houseplant owners think that because spider plant is a forgiving specimen, keeping it at a shady spot all year round is a way to go. Unfortunately, that’s not true.
Spider plant needs ample indirect light exposure to spread well. The best bet? Keep it in the morning sun, daily for 3-4 hours and you will see the plant double its size in a few months. No Kidding!
If your spider plant is confined to an indoor environment for a long time, then it would be a good idea to take it outside and keep it there for a week or so.
What it does is, it allows the plant to have an increased light and air flow, which stimulates its growth by mimicking its natural environment.
If you live in a warm zone, make sure the plant is protected
