Best Locations for Growing Bonnie Caribbean Spider Plant
This plant flourishes in kitchens, bathrooms, and other areas with moderate to high humidity. It is ideal for brightening office spaces, living rooms, and bedrooms, thanks to its adaptability to medium to bright indirect light. Safe for pets, the Bonnie Spider Plant adds charm and peace of mind to pet-friendly homes.
Bonnie Caribbean Spider Plant Sunlight Requirements
Bonnie Caribbean thrives in bright, indirect sunlight but tolerates medium light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch its delicate leaves. Place it near an east-facing window or a few feet away from a south- or west-facing window. If leaves appear pale, reduce light exposure to restore their bright variegation.
Bonnie Caribbean Spider Plant Care
This Spider Plant grows best in well-draining soil enriched with peat moss. Choose a pot with drainage holes to prevent waterlogging, and allow the top 2 inches of soil to dry between waterings. Repot every 2–3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound, using a pot 1–2 inches larger.
Prune yellow or withered leaves to keep the plant neat, and remove any leggy growth to maintain its compact form. Regular pruning encourages new growth and enhances its cascading appearance. Propagate offsets (spiderettes) by planting them directly into soil or rooting them in water.
Watering Bonnie Caribbean Spider Plant
Water the Bonnie Spider Plant when the top 2 inches of soil feel dry to the touch. During the growing season, water thoroughly and allow excess water to drain. Reduce watering frequency in winter when growth slows. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure the pot does not sit in standing water.
This plant thrives in humidity levels between 40–60%. Mist the leaves regularly or place the pot on a pebble tray filled with water to maintain moisture. Grouping with other plants or using a humidifier can also enhance the humidity, especially in dry indoor environments.
Feeding Bonnie Caribbean Spider Plant
Feed monthly during spring and summer with a diluted liquid houseplant fertilizer. Avoid fertilizing during winter, as the plant’s growth naturally slows. Over-fertilizing may lead to salt buildup and damage to the roots, so always dilute the fertilizer to half the recommended strength on the label.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
