Chlorophytum comosum 'Variegatum'

Chlorophytum comosum 'Variegatum' is a variegated spider plant cultivar with arching green leaves edged in white to cream. It grows from a central rosette and develops a graceful cascading outline as the leaves lengthen and mature flower stems begin to carry small plantlets.

The pale margins create a ribboned edge along each strap-shaped leaf, with a green centre running through the rosette. Mature plants can produce thin arching stems with small white flowers, followed by young plantlets that root easily once they form small root initials.

Classic striped spider plant traits

  • Variegated spider plant cultivar with green centres and pale leaf margins
  • Arching rosette growth with narrow strap-shaped leaves
  • Produces small white flowers and hanging plantlets on mature stems
  • Fleshy roots store moisture and fill containers strongly over time
  • ASPCA-listed as non-toxic to cats and dogs

Botanical origin and variegated growth

Chlorophytum comosum belongs to the Asparagaceae family and is native across parts of tropical Africa into southern Africa. The species grows as a perennial with tufted leaves, fleshy roots, and flowering stems that can carry both flowers and plantlets.

'Variegatum' is a cultivated variegated form of Chlorophytum comosum. Its green-centred leaves with pale margins create a clear striped effect, especially once the leaves arch over the pot. The plant’s thick roots help it cope with short dry phases and can fill a container quickly during active growth.

Care for arching variegated growth

  • Light: Set in bright indirect light or gentle morning/evening sun. Strong midday sun can scorch the pale margins and leave dry marks.
  • Watering: Give a thorough soak once the upper substrate has dried, then let the pot drain fully. The thick roots cope well when the upper substrate dries before the next soak.
  • Substrate: Choose a well-drained houseplant mix with enough openness for thick roots. Perlite, fine bark, or pumice helps prevent compaction.
  • Temperature: Maintain temperatures above 15°C for steady growth. Cool wet conditions can damage the fleshy roots.
  • Humidity: Regular room humidity is suitable. Dry heated air can contribute to tip browning, especially on older leaves.
  • Feeding: Apply a mild fertiliser during spring and summer. A light schedule keeps growth steady and limits salt stress in the root zone.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots press firmly against the pot or water runs through too quickly. Divide crowded clumps during repotting if desired.
  • Pruning: Remove dry tips, spent flower stems, and old plantlets with clean scissors. Keep the central crown clear and dry after watering.
  • Propagation: Root plantlets in substrate once small roots are visible, or divide mature clumps with several growth points.
  • Summer outdoors: Warm sheltered shade suits seasonal placement. Acclimate gradually and bring indoors before cool nights return.

Tips, roots and runner signals

  • Brown tips: Check water quality, watering pattern, dry air, and fertiliser salts. Low-mineral or rainwater can help where tap water causes repeated tip burn.
  • Yellowing and soft roots: Usually points to a wet, compacted root zone. Check drainage and repot into a more open mix if needed.
  • Scorched pale margins: Move the plant out of direct sun and trim only fully dry tissue.
  • Few plantlets: Younger plants often need more time before sending out runners. Very rich feeding can also favour leaves over plantlet production.

Offsets and repotting signs

Chlorophytum comosum can fill a pot with thick white storage roots. A crowded root system can reduce water retention in the substrate, so a plant that dries unusually fast may be ready for repotting or division.

Pet-safe status and trailing leaves

Chlorophytum comosum appears on ASPCA’s non-toxic list for cats and dogs. Fibrous leaves can still trigger vomiting after chewing, so keep long leaves and plantlets away from animals that nibble houseplants.

Botanical name and cultivar note

The accepted species name is Chlorophytum comosum (Thunb.) Jacques, in the family Asparagaceae. The genus name Chlorophytum comes from Greek roots meaning green or yellow-green plant. The species epithet comosum means furnished with a tuft, referring to the tufted rosette of leaves. 'Variegatum' is the pale-edged variegated spider plant cultivar.

Chlorophytum comosum 'Variegatum' forms arching striped leaves and plantlet-producing runners from a tufted rosette.

The best thing ever for you and your dog!
Size: Large(1/2"-6ft), Color: Black
This leash has been a blessing. I rescued a dog several years ago and I'm not sure what the previous owners did to him but there was no way I could get a harness or collar on him. I tried and being that it's just me and he is about 130 lbs, it wasn't going to happen. I ran out of ideas but saw one trainer video where she slipped it on her dog while giving her dog a treat. That was a great and all but Thor has never taken a treat from my hand. I would have to put it down. Anyway I did and slipped the leash around him and it worked so smoothly. He was surprised by it but I praised him for it. I do this daily now because the slip leash is so easy to work with. I can't thank you guys enough. The quality is there and made well. If you need to train your dog on a leash, you can't go wrong buying this.

Good, heavy duty leash
Size: Large(1/2"-6ft), Color: Purple
I bought 2 of these leashes for my dogs after seeing a dog trainer use something very similar. Before this, I was using a conventional clip-on leash and a flat collar, and I found that my dogs pulled a lot. Well, my young and insane terrier mix still pulls like a freight train, but my older dog has responded well to this leash. It's been significantly easier to get him to heel and to move him along when he decides to spend an entire day sniffing a patch of grass. I'm sure my younger dog will calm down a bit when I work with her some more, and this leash will help. The rope is stout and it has reflective thread woven into it. I didn't realize how visible it was until a light shone on it. I wouldn't rely on it to keep you safe in low visibility areas (wear a reflective vest if you walk at night and there's traffic) but it can't hurt and is a nice touch. The rope is soft enough that it doesn't chafe either dog's neck, and it's thick enough that it doesn't hurt my hands even when the dogs spot a rabbit or squirrel and YANK as hard as they can. I certainly have no fear of this leash breaking-- it looks like you could tow a small car with it. This is an excellent, inexpensive slip leash to use when walking or training an obstinate dog.

Great Quality & Easily Useable!
Size: Large(1/2"-6ft), Color: Yellow
These are the BEST leashes, not only for new dogs that are training, but for every day usage. My dog is 40 lb. Bernedoodle and he is off-leash a lot of the time because he wears an e-collar and responds well to this. So these leadshes that slip on and off easily are terrific! They are great quality, nice weight, perfect length at 6 feet. I have several in different colors.

Fun
Style: Chain(Silver)1
This was really nice looking on my gf. It's a cheap pretty thing to wear. Of course you need to be careful as it's a little fragile being an inexpensive piece.
