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.

3D Printed (Not Mentioned) and Base is Way Too Loose
Size: Small Storage Area, Size: Small Storage Area
I bought this to clean up my desk setup for my SteelSeries Nova Pro Wireless, and while it looks decent from a distance, there are two major issues that weren't clear from the product page. First, this is a 3D-printed product. Nowhere in the Amazon description or photos does it state that this is 3D printed. You can clearly see the layer lines and "stair-stepping" on the curves. While I don't mind 3D printing in general, for this price point, I expected a standard injection-molded plastic finish. The product page feels a bit misleading by omitting this detail. Second, the fit is very poor. The "integrated dock" for the GameDAC station doesn't actually lock into place. There is no snap or friction fit; it sits so loosely that you can slide the DAC out of the front or back with the single push of a finger. This makes it feel unstable, especially when you are trying to use the volume dial or swap out batteries. Bottom Line: It’s a nice idea and fits the aesthetic of the headset, but the execution feels like a prototype rather than a finished consumer product. If you're looking for a secure "lock-in" feel for your expensive base station, this isn't it.

High quality stand
Style: Swivel Base, Color: Silver, Style: Swivel Base, Color: Silver
The mStand 360 is an amazing stand. I love how it is built from a single piece of aluminum and looks amazing on my desk. It fits my Macbook Pro 15" extremely well and raises it up to the height of my monitor easily. Not only does it help me improve my posture, but it also neatens up my desk significantly. I can easily fit an external keyboard under my Macbook when I am not using it, clearing up space. The hole in the back is also useful for bunching cables together that go directly into my Macbook, keeping my cables off the floor when I take my Macbook to go somewhere. The stand feels very stable, with no chance of my Macbook falling off. The aluminum C shape does have a slight bend on it if you put extra weight on it, but all in all, it feels very sturdy. The rubber padding on the stand also keeps the stand from scraping or damaging any part of my laptop and I feel very comfortable trusting the stand with my laptop. I would not recommend typing on a laptop keyboard while it is on the stand, but it works great with external keyboards. The swivel feature met my expectations, allowing the laptop to be easily turned. Thankfully, it was not too easy to turn and my laptop does not turn itself when in the stand. It is a nice feature to have, especially because I paid only 5$ extra for it (the price for the swivel stand seems to have increased since then). I am very happy with my purchase, even though it did seem a little expensive. I am wholly satisfied that I spent the extra 20$ to get a great laptop stand that will probably last for years.

This stand is just perfect!
Style: Swivel Base, Color: Space Gray
I first started looking at stands when I learned that staring at a laptop for hours can cause back injuries. So, I got the idea to use a stand, at home. This stand allows me to have a keyboard and mouse and use my laptop as a glorified desktop with a smaller monitor. I was astonished at the quality of this stand. It is better built than it needs to be, but I am not complaining at all about this. Let's face it, we spend a lot of money on our laptops, and you want to have a great platform to sit your laptop on. I love the ability to swivel the stand. My desk is very close to a window that lets in a lot of the sun at certain times of days. This would result in a glare if not for the ability to spin my computer ever so slightly in either direction to combat this problem. Also, it is a great cable manager with the hole on the back of the stand that makes everything look cleaner and more organized. The color matches my MacBook perfectly and looks like it is an Apple product. Summary: Great product. High quality. Looks great. Swizel is impressive and useful.

Perfect stand for your Apple products
Style: Swivel Base, Color: Silver
I loved the look and design of this stand so much that I bought two of them, one for my work office and one for my home office. I have a 13" Macbook Pro and the screen sits at the perfect height for me. I do not feel like I am straining my neck looking down at my computer screen anymore. At both my work and home offices I have Apple display monitors, so now my laptop screen is inline with my monitors, AND matches their bases, which is very nice. The keyboard is at a nice angle and isn't too high off the desk if you need to use the trackpad or keyboard. However, I recommend using a secondary keyboard and mouse. The keyboard sits about 4" off the desk so there is room to store your secondary keyboard and mouse underneath the stand. But because it is 4" off the desk, it makes it uncomfortable to type on the laptop or use the trackpad for an extended period of time. The cord keeper hole in the back of the stand is a nice touch, however if your cords are too tight, it will rotate your stand. The swivel is a nice touch, but it is somewhat sensitive. So far no accidental bumps have irritated me, which was one of my concerns before I purchased. All-in-all I would recommend this product to anyone who uses their laptop with a secondary display, regardless of if you use Apple products or not. It is a well made stand and looks good, and seems like it will accommodate most laptops (within the manufacturers guidelines).

A Solution to Lapbook Problems
Style: Swivel Base, Color: Silver
This is the best product I have encountered in all my days of using a laptop. I use it with a wireless keyboard, and so the screen is up in my face where I can see it well, and the keyboard in down below where I can type easily without tiring my wrists. I am delighted with it all. The stand swivels, an advantage I was not expecting to care about, and find that I do. The swivel allows me to adjust to the incoming light for better vision. That might not make sense to users of lamps, but I have a skylight and so am accommodating to the sun all day long. The swivel changes everything. Another plus is how sturdy the stand is. I have no fears of it turning over or dumping the laptop into my lap. It is clearly there to stay, and yet if I need to move it, that is easily accomplished. I tuck the entire thing behind closed doors most of the time when it is not in use, and that leaves my work space neat and tidy. There is one final advantage. I am a coffee drinker, and I have always been worried about knocking my cup over into my computer. With the stand, my computer sits above the desk top where I put my coffee, and the keyboard is on s shell below and out of the way. I still prefer to drink rather than knock over my coffee, but, hey, why not have a measure of safety also. I give this product a 10 star review if there is such a thing. It has been a real game changer for me, and now I am not regretting not purchasing a desktop machine. My laptop is absolutely perfect with this stand, and has the advantage that it goes with me when I travel. Bettie Banks
