| Botanical Name | Chlorophytum comosum |
| Description | Also known as the Spider Plant, this versatile perennial is a staple in the Houston metro area for shaded patios and indoor rooms. It is highly valued for its ability to produce "pups" or plantlets that dangle from long stems. While it loves the Texas humidity, it is sensitive to fluoride in tap water and soggy conditions; using a well-aerated potting mix rather than heavy garden soil is essential. It is remarkably resilient but should be protected from direct, scorching afternoon sun. |
| Exposure | Bright, Indirect Light or Filtered Shade. |
| Height x Width | 12-24 inches Tall x 12-24 inches Wide |
| Water | Medium; allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. |
| Zones | 9-11 (Must be moved indoors if temperatures drop below 40°F). |
| Fertilization | Apply a balanced liquid fertilizer every 2-4 weeks during spring and summer. |
| Pruning | Remove brown tips and trim back plantlets if the basket becomes too heavy. |
| Deer Resistance | High (Typically kept out of reach in baskets). |
