VIDEO DESCRIPTION HERE
This is a video I would have liked to have watched as I began collecting spider plants. I discuss the different types of spider plants as well as some of the relatives. I chat about lighting, propagation, fertilizing and watering. These are some of my very favorite plants and I hope you enjoy this video.

This is the very best spider plant video I've ever seen.
Thank you. I made it because this is the spider plant video I wanted to see!
After searching long and hard, this is literally the best spider plant video on CZcams, I have no idea why this is not at the top of searches. I have most varieties apart from the bonnie. Including the miniature one you mention at the end. Its actually an Ocean as well.
I'm so glad that this video was helpful for you. I made the kind of video that I would have liked to have found when I was sorting out my spiders! I'm still on the hunt for the mini!
2 year later and it was at the top of my search!
@@aleesiauh Oh wow it’s on 15k views now. It’s blown up. 2 years ago it was just a few. Great video to be honest.
Spider plant are a little sensitive to regular tap water so use rain, distilled or filtered water to avoid brown tips.
It's funny when I lived in town I could use tap water but for some reason out here in the country I have to use rain water. I haven't used distilled but I notice that they love the rain water!
They don’t like chlorinated water, so I set it out overnight, before watering them.
loved how you said "plus they give babies❤" I love that about my spider plants... one rescued spider plant is currently blooming and I feel so so happy looking at it🎉
Such a great video on spider plants! ❤
This is the best spider plant video!🎉 I found all the answers to my plant. Moving him further away from the light and into a larger plant pronto!
Hi from Vancouver BC. I have 4 of the mandarin (fireflash) plants. I discovered this year that the 3 older ones that are on my closed in deck had flowered with a big (2-4”) rather ugly flower. I left them on the plants and let the seed pods on the flower dry up. When they became almost black I started shaking them onto paper and discovered hundreds of tiny seeds. I haven’t started any seeds yet because I thought I’d wait til spring to give them a better chance. So, if you can, let your fireflash plants get older and a bit leggy and they will reward you! Thanks for the video!
great tip! I hope I can see this happen
I found and bought Fire Flash seeds from Plantflix, after 13 days I have 5 sprouts. I also have a mama regular and a pot of her babies. Nice video, thanks!!!
My kids got me a spider plant. I am happy to find videos on them :))
I love spider plants and it is so fun to share them!
I bought 2 spider plants today with some vague knowledge going in, but now I love spider plants after watching this! 😍 you made them sound so interesting haha!
They are wonderful plants!! enjoy!
I love this plant, I just have 2 varieties, but I will keep my eye out for more! I have a wish list on my phone, for when I go to the nursery.
I’m a fan and thank you for the information.
I have the spider plant that is called green edge spider plant I'm looking for all the other ones you talked about am in love with my spider plants and my aloe vera I just love house plants your video is so awesome I got so much information out of your video then any other spider plant video on CZcams Thank you so much
I love spider plants I got a pretty curly one
Thank you very much💚🕊🙋🏻♀️☮️
Thanks for sharing your tips
Thank you this was helpful. I find it hard to tell some of the types from others by the pictures. I am growing my collection of spider plants and currently have 4. It all started with a trade with someone.
Hi Elisa, you've got me hooked on spiders. I picked some cuttings up and a lovely lady gave me a cutting of a spider plant from Cuba, it's fab. Don't know the name but the mama is magnificent 😊
They are such wonderful plants! I would love to know how it does.
A spider plant was my first plant as a child. It was really robust and fun to propagate.
I so love them! This is where it all began for me and I still love them!
Thank you for the info. I have always had at least 1 spider plant in my plant collection. I did purchase a mandarin spider plant, not knowing that it was a spin off of the spider plant. I love the orange center. I did almost kill one by giving it full sunlight and all I had was stubs. I have cut it down, so just the orange was left, and planted in with my new one, and I believe it will be a vet full plant. I needed growing tips which I got from your vast knowledge. So thanks. Blessings.
I got a huwaian spider plant i was lucky to find it at the end of 2019 now i have so many because of the mother plant.
I have been upping my spider plant game. I agree they are overlooked! I know they are basic, but the huge ones are MAJESTIC! I picked up an 8" pot with two large solid green ones at a church rummage sale. I decided to repot it into two. It was solid root blobs and instead of soil, it was potted in what looked like straight sand. The poor plant! I gave it some good potting mix and compost and I bet both look amazing in a month. I can't believe they looked as reasonable as they did in SAND. Proof you can't kill these things - unless you forget them outside and they freeze.
Yes!! I love them. I feel like they can make any plant mom proud!
Thanku
I always love spider plants and luckily I manages to keep 2 pots inside my house since many years ago .
Yes they are just wonderful little plants.
I have just started collecting them. I had one years ago but gave it away when we moved country. Now you have whet my appetite. Loving your videos. We should work on a collaboration video 😊
That would be fun! I just checked out your channel and subscribed!
Great, let's have a think about a fun project. I'll be in touch 😊
I am from Portugal but I currently live in the Netherlands, i both a spider plant when I move here one yer ago and its de small one the “ocean” but mine is full grownup and is really thinning, I think it my be the one that you are looking for.
Can.Bonnie spider plants lose their curl? If so, why? Your video.was great! You are knowable and are appreciated!
I got a Mandarin spider plant about a month ago and it’s my favourite plant so far! The orange on it is so gorgeous, and it grows like crazy. You’re the first person I’ve seen make a detailed video about it, thanks so much!
I cannot believe it took me so long to get one. It is an amazing and easy plant! I'm so glad you found one.
.. I've got the variegated one with leaves up to 48 cm.. And all the babies on it too 😲.. Can't even see that I've taken off a great deal by now and the mother keeps coming up with more.. And then I've got the Mandarin too.. I would love to have the green one and the Hawaii , but unfortunately they are not available around here..
Everything I grow in water dies 😩. Your plants are so beautiful. I’m going through my third one hopefully it won’t die. 🙏🏽
you really just have to keep trying different things in your conditions. I have had a lot of luck planting spider plants directly into dirt but you must keep the dirt wet.
Hey Elisa, I gave you a shout out in my new video, I hope I pronounced your name correctly. Thanks for peaking my interest in spiders 😊
That is so awesome! Thank you so much!!
Loved your video. I had no idea that there were so many different kinds of spider plants. I got a big one from Walmart about six months ago. Long leaves with the white in the center. I keep waiting for babies to make more but nothing yet. How long do you think it may take before I see some babies? Thank you for all the information. It was very interesting.
not too long as long as it gets nice light but not scorching and plenty of water you will have little spider babies soon!
@@elisaliebelt1181 thank you for the reply! Best wishes!
i have multiple spiderplants that are solid green very long leaves.. the plants have gotten quite larger than variegated varieties i have
I told before that I had planned a big biiiig spider plant video, but I must push into the future. I gave, with help from other new enthusiasts that Bonnie Caribbean and Pacific is identical when they're for sale. What I thought was Pacific is Caribbean, so to be fair I need to get my hands on s "labeled" Pacific. But I will do a photo compilation over what I got atm. very soon so all of you will see them all I got anyway.
I have a baby reverse variegation from Canada, then got a variegated curly spider from interstate, Australia, then variegated "normal" spider? 😅 I would love a non variegated one... They're such beautiful plants
I have curly spider plant and the green spider plant for 3 years now.
I bought a plant on marketplace that is supposed to be a spider plane, was very root bound, all green leaves… I repotted it in a larger plant, I do
See some
New
Shoots growing out of soil, but no babies or long shoots yet…. Still not convinced this is a spider plant!
there are forms or relatives that do not have babies.Give it plenty of light and wait and see.
And I’ve been watching all the channel never have the same what I have I’m tell you there is a route coming too long and then the top is it like it take roots like balloons should I keep them or should I take them or what should I do
Hello I transferred my spider plan because it looks like small in a pot and it didn’t bloom that it didn’t get so much sleeves it get dries every time I took it out think is I seen like there’s a root and there is a balloon like a balloon on top of the roots what is it so I cut some of the root in the bottom and I plan to the game tell me if it’s right or wrong thank you
I will post a video about spider plants. Yours are far the greatest I've seen yet. But... I have 11 commercially named and produced varieties (and some mutations) very soon, just awaiting Lemon and Ocean. My collection is the European version, but I heard that USA ppl can, with some research, get their hands on every one nowadays. Please come over, comment and share your thoughts when it is up. This is one by far one of the most neglected house plants when it comes to cultivar knowledge...
I would really enjoy watching that! It is so difficult to get any information on these plants and they are so trusty and true houseplants. I haven't been able to find the lemon any where in the US and I have been looking.
That one seems to be the newest on the market? And the most elusive one. When I get my order (shipped 25th May). That will be my 3th Lemon, hopefully Lemon XD
@@TheChandrastar I hear they are only in Europe
My spider plant is struggling brown leaves drooping also . I do have babies on it but I have only bought it like 3 weeks ago
So, did the baby solid green spider plant turn out to be a true curly??? I have been searching for one for 4 years. I had one and it was destroyed when I moved. 😭😭😭
I have a horrible invasion of spider plants that’s wiped out a large bed of lariope. A few lariope remain at the bed edges. I have dug out spider plant roots 3 times. The bulb roots seem impossible to kill. Spider plants have regrown. How can I get completely rid of this astoundingly invasive nuisance to replant lariope? Bryon Satterfield
I'm sorry to hear this, but where I live these plants do not live outside so I have had zero experience with this invasion.
I bought a large curly spider plant and want to know how to separate them
You referenced the little flowers are where babies will form... do the flowers need to be pollinated?
If the flowers are pollinated you will get a seed pod. you will still get babies from where the flowers are without pollination.
I dont know how to separate the plant without killing the roots and it is super over root bound and getting a lot of yellow leaves at the bottom please get back to me so i don't lose my plants I spent 70.00 on them. Please help me.
Thanks for the overview of varieties , but I wanted a guide to care. My plants do not sprout babies and I don’t know why. No answer to that.
so if the are root bound or have too little light they will not sprout babies.
I have seen those plants at walmart didnt know was a spider plant
Hey! So any update on the 'ocean' ??? 3 years later
How can you keep your spider plant stand tall
Should I separate my spider plant when repotting, since there are 3 plants in the pot.
you can if they are big enough for individual pots but if they are doing well keep them together in a bigger pot.
How huck blood meal and bone meal should be given to a spider plant in a 10inch pot
There is another type purple in Color
I must find it!
What is the maximum size they get
Could I plant two different species of spider plants together?
so I have seen it done but not well. It starts good but then it seems like the dominant takes the nutrients at the expense of the others.
@@elisaliebelt1181 O’kay, thank you for the guidance. Appreciate the feedback
Brown tips
Are they all pet safe?
Yes, spider plants are considered pet safe.
Do all spider plants have babies
If the plant is 25 years old is so small
The moment you said air purifying I stopped listening. I'm just beyond tired of dismissing this myth. NASA showed they filter out negligible amounts. You're going to need a little forest of these for them to actually have any air purifying effect.
Then I shall have a forest!
@@elisaliebelt1181 Still it's misinformation. You have a responsibility to be correct if you're influencing people.
@@luckybarrel7829 yup you are right, but they are listed as one of the best even if a small amount, so your air is slightly better than homes without them, I would say I would have plants no matter what, I love them and they bring me peace which I would say is even more of a boon for your health. When I did the research for this video I'm afraid the list only was a list, it didn't give the filtering amount. That's on me. I don't believe that most people who own plants have them for that reason, but it isn't a horrible side benefit even if small. People have plants because they are alive and beautiful.
Thank you for your correction . It is noted and will be here in the comments for all.
@@elisaliebelt1181 Ok, thank you
