Chlorophytum comosum 'Bonnie'

As we have seen firsthand, spider plants can go absolutely crazy, forming a mass of variegated foliage that is over two tall and wide with countless spider babies. For those looking for a more compact version, consider 'Bonnie,' a curly-leafed version that stays a manageable eight inches tall and around 18 inches wide. This variety thrives in the same environment as "regular" spider plants, meaning a well-lit room with higher humidity (pebble trays work well, misting, too, or invest in a humidifier) and a thorough watering when the surface soil is dry. We emphasize the humidity issue because like calatheas, spider plants' leaf tips will brown if the air is too dry. Take care of your spider plant, and it will take care of you by ridding the air of toxic gases.
