Chlorophytum comosum 'Variegatum'

Chlorophytum comosum 'Variegatum' is a variegated spider plant cultivar with arching green leaves edged in white to cream. It grows from a central rosette and develops a graceful cascading outline as the leaves lengthen and mature flower stems begin to carry small plantlets.

The pale margins create a ribboned edge along each strap-shaped leaf, with a green centre running through the rosette. Mature plants can produce thin arching stems with small white flowers, followed by young plantlets that root easily once they form small root initials.

Classic striped spider plant traits

  • Variegated spider plant cultivar with green centres and pale leaf margins
  • Arching rosette growth with narrow strap-shaped leaves
  • Produces small white flowers and hanging plantlets on mature stems
  • Fleshy roots store moisture and fill containers strongly over time
  • ASPCA-listed as non-toxic to cats and dogs

Botanical origin and variegated growth

Chlorophytum comosum belongs to the Asparagaceae family and is native across parts of tropical Africa into southern Africa. The species grows as a perennial with tufted leaves, fleshy roots, and flowering stems that can carry both flowers and plantlets.

'Variegatum' is a cultivated variegated form of Chlorophytum comosum. Its green-centred leaves with pale margins create a clear striped effect, especially once the leaves arch over the pot. The plant’s thick roots help it cope with short dry phases and can fill a container quickly during active growth.

Care for arching variegated growth

  • Light: Set in bright indirect light or gentle morning/evening sun. Strong midday sun can scorch the pale margins and leave dry marks.
  • Watering: Give a thorough soak once the upper substrate has dried, then let the pot drain fully. The thick roots cope well when the upper substrate dries before the next soak.
  • Substrate: Choose a well-drained houseplant mix with enough openness for thick roots. Perlite, fine bark, or pumice helps prevent compaction.
  • Temperature: Maintain temperatures above 15°C for steady growth. Cool wet conditions can damage the fleshy roots.
  • Humidity: Regular room humidity is suitable. Dry heated air can contribute to tip browning, especially on older leaves.
  • Feeding: Apply a mild fertiliser during spring and summer. A light schedule keeps growth steady and limits salt stress in the root zone.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots press firmly against the pot or water runs through too quickly. Divide crowded clumps during repotting if desired.
  • Pruning: Remove dry tips, spent flower stems, and old plantlets with clean scissors. Keep the central crown clear and dry after watering.
  • Propagation: Root plantlets in substrate once small roots are visible, or divide mature clumps with several growth points.
  • Summer outdoors: Warm sheltered shade suits seasonal placement. Acclimate gradually and bring indoors before cool nights return.

Tips, roots and runner signals

  • Brown tips: Check water quality, watering pattern, dry air, and fertiliser salts. Low-mineral or rainwater can help where tap water causes repeated tip burn.
  • Yellowing and soft roots: Usually points to a wet, compacted root zone. Check drainage and repot into a more open mix if needed.
  • Scorched pale margins: Move the plant out of direct sun and trim only fully dry tissue.
  • Few plantlets: Younger plants often need more time before sending out runners. Very rich feeding can also favour leaves over plantlet production.

Offsets and repotting signs

Chlorophytum comosum can fill a pot with thick white storage roots. A crowded root system can reduce water retention in the substrate, so a plant that dries unusually fast may be ready for repotting or division.

Pet-safe status and trailing leaves

Chlorophytum comosum appears on ASPCA’s non-toxic list for cats and dogs. Fibrous leaves can still trigger vomiting after chewing, so keep long leaves and plantlets away from animals that nibble houseplants.

Botanical name and cultivar note

The accepted species name is Chlorophytum comosum (Thunb.) Jacques, in the family Asparagaceae. The genus name Chlorophytum comes from Greek roots meaning green or yellow-green plant. The species epithet comosum means furnished with a tuft, referring to the tufted rosette of leaves. 'Variegatum' is the pale-edged variegated spider plant cultivar.

Chlorophytum comosum 'Variegatum' forms arching striped leaves and plantlet-producing runners from a tufted rosette.

Great patches for punctures and the proper way to repair a tyre.
Size: 0.16 x 1.42 ,0.24 x 1.77 ,0.35 x 2.36 Inch, Size: 0.16 x 1.42 ,0.24 x 1.77 ,0.35 x 2.36 Inch
Why go to a tire repair shop and spend a fortune when you can do it yourself. However most people don't want to be bothered but for us do it yourselfers this patch set was great. Comes with various patches all in different sizes. If you're not familiar with fixing a tire it's really easy and honestly a scam getting it done. Fun fact the gray glue on the bottom is actually activated when you drive heating up the patch and vulcanizing it to the tire but it doesn't hurt to actually use some rubber cement to seal around the patch to prevent future leaks. I ended up having to use these on one of my motorcycle tires when I ran over a pallet staple, for me the biggest patchwork and once testing and rebeating the tire there was no leakage. Good price for the amount you receive and cost less to repair it yourself than taking it to a shop

Worked Great. Save a Near New Tire
Size: 0.16 x 1.42 ,0.24 x 1.77 ,0.35 x 2.36 Inch
I got these because twice this year I picked up a nail in my motorcycle tire. The local shops want to sell tires so they won't patch any tire no matter how new. I used these on two tires, a steel-belted radial and a bias-ply off-road tire. It worked out great, both have been holding air for months now and by doing it myself I saved hundreds of $$$. These are the best way to pemanently patch a tire that's gotten a smallish puncture.

Good quality, Best for schools and shops.
Size: 0.16 x 1.42 ,0.24 x 1.77 ,0.35 x 2.36 Inch
I bought this butyl repair patch and the quality is good. I brought it to the school where I’m learning automotive repair and used it as a teaching consumable. Many students tried it, and everyone thought it worked very well. One thing I would suggest for individual buyers: pay attention to the size combinations in the package. For most car owners, you may end up using only one size more often. Because of that, this mixed-size packaging is probably more suitable for schools, training programs, or auto repair shops where different sizes are needed regularly. Overall, it’s still a good quality product and performs exactly as expected.

Look very useful
Size: 0.16 x 1.42 ,0.24 x 1.77 ,0.35 x 2.36 Inch
Haven't actually used them yet, but they look like the perfect way to fix a flat. As can be seen they come in various sizes depending on what you will need. All you need to get is some tire patch rubber cement and a good inner tire sealer (I picked up a can of Xtra Seal)
