Decorate with spider plants this year (updated 2022)
Cindy VenerioSpider plants are some of the most beloved, quirky, and eclectic plants out there – long tendril-looking fronds add texture and green color to any space needing some lush greenery. The hanging spider plant is an excellent choice for lacking space and needing some visual interest. But maintaining natural spider plants can be difficult, especially if they're hanging. So instead, opt for nature-inspired, high-quality faux spider plants – perfect for any space in any room. With 75+ years of experience, Horticulturists design every faux spider plant while paying particular attention to details that mimic nature's beauty. At an affordable price point, everyone can enjoy the benefits of greenery no matter their lifestyle.
The best part about spider plants is their ability to blend with other lush, verdant, and whole trees to enhance the look – bringing jungle vibes to any space. When curated with other plants such as Dracaenas, Pothos, or Fiddle Leaf Figs, you'll see the difference in textures that elevate any look and give it a designer touch.
1. Perfect for tight areas
One of the best reasons that many customers love spider plants is because of their compact size – making them perfect for spaces of all sizes. We know that decorating in a small area can be challenging, but rest assured with the right decorated spider plant, you're on your way to a curated look without any maintenance.
2. Add dimension and depth
Because of the eclectic shape of the fronds, artificial spider plants, complement any space in need of more visual interest. For example, kitchens are a great area to add them because kitchens can always be livened. For example, you can see this in spaces where there are already other plants, but some are not as visually interesting as the spider plant.
3. Affordable
We know that time is money, and money is time. This is why you deserve natural faux spider plants inspired by nature and crafted from high-quality materials. Artificial plants tend to be more affordable in the long run because they can last a while with the proper care and remove the burden of care. Especially for those with a busy lifestyle, faux plants are the perfect alternative for a well-curated space.
4. Timeless
While trends are fun, they're just that – trends. The spider plant is excellent if you're looking for a consistent, always stylish pick. We can't recommend it enough for spaces of all sizes and lifestyles. While the look is timeless, consider changing it as the seasons come by, adding a new planter to reflect the seasons. This is a low-cost, effective method always to keep things fresh.
5. Require no maintenance
We know that most of us have a busy, on-the-go lifestyle. This is even more important when caring for plants that require much care—because of this, opting for a hanging spider plant is a great choice. Just remember to feather dust about once a month so you can ensure the longevity of your new spider plant.
