Common Names: Spider Plant, Airplane Plant, Curly Spider Plant, Spider Ivy

About This Plant

The 'Bonnie' variety is a charming, curly-leafed twist on the classic Spider Plant. Its ribbon-like, arching leaves spiral and curl as they grow, giving it a lively, sculptural look that stands out on shelves, windowsills, and in hanging baskets. Like its parent, it produces delicate white flowers on long trailing stems and sends out baby plantlets — called spiderettes — that dangle gracefully and can be propagated with ease.
