Spider Plant 'Curly Bonnie'

$6.99
Title

Bring a playful, energetic vibe to your space with the Spider Plant ‘Bonnie’. This charming cultivar takes the classic spider plant silhouette and adds a stylish twist—literally! Its arching, ribbon-like leaves are elegantly variegated with a creamy white center and vibrant green margins, but unlike the traditional variety, ‘Bonnie’ features distinctive, whimsical curls and coils that give it a "perm-like" appearance. As it matures, it produces long, cascading stems adorned with tiny white star-flowers and miniature "spiderette" babies, creating a lush, tumbling fountain of curly foliage that looks spectacular in a hanging basket or on a high pedestal.

Care Guide

Common Pests

Whiteflies

Whiteflies

What To Look For: Tiny white winged insects that fly up when you disturb the plant. Adults are often found on leaf undersides. Leaves turning yellow, dropping; sticky honeydew; sooty mold may develop.

How To Treat: Use yellow sticky traps near the plant to monitor and reduce adult whiteflies. Spray underside of leaves with insecticidal soap; cover leaf undersides thoroughly. Repeat treatments weekly until no new signs are present.

Spider Mites

Spider Mites

What To Look For: Very fine webbing under leaves or between stems and leaves (especially in dry indoor air). Leaves may appear stippled (tiny yellow or white dots) or dusty; they may turn yellow, brown or drop. When you tap a leaf onto white paper, you might see tiny moving specks. (Often too small to see easily)

How To Treat: Increase humidity around the plant (since mites thrive in dry air). Spray plant thoroughly (both sides of leaves) with insecticidal soap or a miticide/plant-safe oil; repeat every few days. In heavy infestations, consider removing severely affected sections; isolate the plant.

Mealybugs

Mealybugs

What To Look For: White, cottony or waxy masses on stems, leaf axils, underside of leaves. Sticky honeydew, sooty mold growth, yellowing or dropping leaves.

How To Treat: Use a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol to dab and remove visible bugs. Wash leaves and stems with gentle soapy water. In heavy infestations, consider removing very affected stems/leaves or, in the worst case, replacing the plant.

Aphids

Aphids

What To Look For: Small soft-bodied insects (green, yellow, black or orange) usually congregating on new growth, stems or leaf undersides. Sticky residue (“honeydew”) on leaves or nearby surfaces, sometimes with sooty mold developing on it. Distorted or curling leaves, wilting, slow growth.

How To Treat: Isolate the infested plant to prevent spread. Blast with water to dislodge many adults, especially on newer growth. Use insecticidal soap, making sure to cover the leaf underside and new growth. Repeat treatments every 7 days or so until no new signs appear. (Since they reproduce quickly)
