Spider plant, also known as the “spider plant,” is a popular plant prized not only for its ornamental beauty but also for its numerous health and home benefits.

Native to the rainforests of Brazil, this tropical plant has become a common fixture in homes around the world thanks to its hardiness and ease of care.

In this article, we’ll explore how to care for spider plant and its benefits, with a particular focus on its role in purifying indoor air.

How to Care for Spider Plants
Light and Location
Spider plant thrives in bright locations, but avoid direct exposure to intense sunlight. Place it in a spot where it receives indirect light or in a semi-shaded area of your home.

Temperature and Humidity
This plant prefers moderate temperatures and cannot tolerate excessive cold. Be sure to keep it away from cold drafts and maintain a constant temperature of around 18-24°C. Good humidity is essential for spider mite, so regularly spray the leaves with water or place the plant on a tray filled with water and gravel to increase humidity.

Watering
Spider mite likes moist but not too wet soil. Water regularly during the warmer months, ensuring the soil dries out slightly between waterings. During the winter, reduce watering frequency, but still ensure the soil does not dry out completely.
