How to care for curly spider plant? Water and sunlight, and it grows lush and leafy
Curly spider plant, as the name suggests, is a spider plant with curly leaves, which immediately got Huahua interested again. So today, Huahua will tell everyone about this curly spider plant and how to grow it.
I did not expect this curly spider plant to have such a special name. Many friends call it: French Lady spider plant. Huahua thinks it is probably because the curly edges of this spider plant's leaves curl very much like the blonde hair of a French lady, so full of charm. In short, it is very charming!
Growing curly spider plant is fairly simple. For the soil, you can choose loose and breathable organic soil. This kind of soil is high in nutrients, good in fertility, and also decent in breathability and looseness, so it is very suitable for the plant to survive.
Curly spider plant is a plant that does not like fertilizer, so we usually do not need to fertilize it often. The soil used is already nutrient soil with fairly good fertility, or base fertilizer has been applied to the soil, which ensures the nutrients needed for the spider plant's growth. So as for fertilizing, you do not need to be very diligent; only occasionally do we need to give the plant a little light fertilizer.
Curly spider plant fairly likes water, but no matter how much a plant likes water, there must never be waterlogging! Once waterlogging occurs, it will cause the plant's roots to rot, problems will appear in the roots, and the roots will be unable to absorb nutrients, and over time they will rot away! People who often read Huahua's articles must clearly know how serious the impact of root rot is on plants. Those who still do not know should hurry up and catch up on their homework!
When watering, just water when the soil is dry and stop when it is moist. Usually we can also use a small spray bottle to spray some water on the leaves of the curly spider plant to keep the leaf surface moist. Many friends may encounter the problem of yellowing leaf tips when growing spider plants. Do not panic when this happens. Just cut off the yellow parts and care for it carefully for a period of time, and it will be fine!
After saying so much, everyone has probably noticed it too: the growing method for this curly spider plant is actually similar to that of ordinary spider plants! And it is actually not difficult to grow. If you want to grow a spider plant but do not want an ordinary one, this "French Lady spider plant" is your only choice!
