Spider plant survives as soon as it touches water, stays green even at 0 degrees, easy to grow and good-looking

Many of you probably keep pothos and spider plants at home, but have you ever grown this kind of spider plant? It is called "thousand-leaf spider plant" and is a bit different from the spider plants we usually grow. Its leaves are round and cute, and it is very cold-hardy, staying green even at 0 degrees, easy to grow in a pot and good-looking.

The thousand-leaf spider plant has slender stems and small, emerald-green, round leaves. When trailing, it suits being placed up high, for example hung on a balcony or windowsill, or set on top of a bookshelf or refrigerator. It looks very nice, and it also purifies formaldehyde, making it very practical to keep at home.

The weather is slowly turning cooler now, and especially in winter many flowers are not cold-hardy, but the thousand-leaf spider plant is different. It has strong cold resistance and can withstand low temperatures of 0 degrees in winter while its leaves stay green. It is very easy to keep in a pot, and with just attention to watering it will usually grow into a full, bursting pot.

The thousand-leaf spider plant loves water and also likes a humid environment. Apart from watering sparingly in winter, spring, summer and autumn are all its peak growing seasons, and at this time you must ensure plenty of water, watering frequently, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. In summer especially, mist the leaves and the surrounding area more often to keep it humid.

Some plant lovers also like to grow the thousand-leaf spider plant by hydroponics, and of course this works too, and it is very simple. Just make sure to change the water frequently, and it will still grow well.

The potted thousand-leaf spider plant has strong adaptability to its environment and is robust by nature, growing well even in partial shade. You can usually place it at a window or on a balcony with indirect or bright light at home; it does not matter how much sunlight it gets.

The thousand-leaf spider plant grows fast, and you can get new potted plants through cuttings. Cuttings can be taken in spring and autumn; a single stem will root once inserted, keep the soil moist, and it will root in a few days. After that you will not need to buy new plants, as it is very easy to grow.
