Precautions:

If you begin to notice spider plant leaves browning, there’s no need to worry. Browning of leaf tips is quite normal and is not harmful to the plant. This is often the result of fluoride found in water, which causes salt to build up in the soil. It usually helps to periodically leach plants by giving them a thorough watering to flush out the excess salts. Be sure to allow the water to drain out and repeat as and when needed. It may also help to use distilled water or even rainwater on plants instead of that from the kitchen tap or outside spigot.

The actual product may slightly differ from the image shown, as it is indicative. The plant's shape, design, number of leaves, and size depend on seasonal availability.

Please note that the received product may not precisely match the displayed image due to natural variations in plant growth and availability. Flower/ Petals and some leaves may drop during transport, but new leaves will sprout again within few days.

Plant Care: Upon receiving your live plants, it's essential to offer them water promptly to rejuvenate them after their journey. Position the plant in an area with indirect sunlight, allowing it to gradually regain its vitality.

Repotting Instructions: Once the plant has fully recovered, you may contemplate repotting it in nutrient-rich soil, either within its current decorative pot or a new one. Ensure the selected pot features adequate drainage holes to prevent overwatering, especially if the decorative pot lacks these holes.

Plant Care

Light & Temperature

Keep plants in bright to moderate indirect Spider plants do not appreciate direct, hot sunlight, which can burn their leaves, causing brown tips and spots.
The plant loves bright or indirect sunlight with a cooler temperature of around 20 to 27℃.
They benefit from occasional pruning, cutting them back to the base.
Maintain average room temperature and humidity.

Watering

During initial growth, water occasionally; once fully developed (within one year), water moderately.
The plant should be watered well but should not be overwatered so as the soil to turn soggy.
Soggy soil will eventually lead to root rot.
The plant prefers to be dried out a bit between watering.
In the spring and summer months, keep the soil moist to encourage growth. Do not let the soil dry out too much.

Fertilizing

Provide them with a well-draining soil.
Since spider plants prefer a semi-pot bound environment, re-pot them only when their large, fleshy roots are highly visible and watering gets difficult.
Fertilize up to twice a month in the spring and summer, however, avoid over-fertilization.
Spray Neem Oil every week to keep the plants bugs free.

General Tips

Spider plants thrive in bright, indirect sunlight. Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry. Reduce watering frequency during the winter months.

During the growing season (spring and summer), feed your spider plant with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer every 2-4 weeks. Reduce fertilizing in the winter.

Trim brown or yellowing leaves at their base to maintain the plant's appearance. Spider plants also produce "spiderettes" or baby plants on long stems, which can be left to root or removed for propagation.

Keep an eye out for common houseplant pests like spider mites and mealybugs. Regularly inspect the undersides of leaves and treat infestations promptly.
