Botanical Name: Chlorophytum comosum
Common Names: Spider Plant, Airplane Plant, Spider Ivy

Description:
The Spider Plant (Chlorophytum comosum) is a hardy, perennial houseplant native to tropical South Africa. It is characterized by long, arching leaves that resemble spider legs, giving it a distinct and attractive appearance. The thin, ribbon-like leaves feature green and white variegation, making it a favorite among houseplant enthusiasts for adding a touch of elegance to any space. The plant is known for producing small, star-shaped white flowers along slender stems, which eventually develop into "spiderettes," or baby plants, that dangle beautifully from the mother plant. The Spider Plant is widely recognized for its air-purifying qualities, helping to remove toxins such as formaldehyde and carbon monoxide from indoor environments. This low-maintenance, fast-growing plant is perfect for homes and offices alike.
