The Full Picture

The Spider Plant is a classic for a reason—it’s nearly indestructible and acts as a natural air filter. For your terrace in Lucknow, it serves as an excellent 'understory' plant. While it handles the heat well, the dry 'Loo' winds can cause its leaf tips to turn brown. The most rewarding part of growing Chlorophytum is its 'babies' (spiderettes) that dangle from long stems, which you can easily pot up to expand your collection or share with others.
