Care

Spider Plant ‘Bonnie’ Care

Place in bright, indirect light for best growth. Partial shade is tolerated, but avoid prolonged exposure to strong direct sun, which may scorch leaves.

Plant in well-drained potting soil rich in organic matter. Water when the top inch of soil begins to dry, keeping soil slightly moist during active growth and reducing watering in winter.

Apply a slow release fertilizer at half strength during the growing season to encourage steady growth.

Prefers temperatures between 60–85°F. Avoid prolonged exposure to temperatures below 50°F.

Container Growing: Spider plants perform best in containers with drainage holes. They often prefer to be slightly rootbound. Plants hardy in the ground may require winter protection when grown in containers in colder zones.
