Up to how long can a spider plant grow?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Spider Plants are no different than any other plants. They will live as long as they have ample sunlight, water and nutrient rich soil. My Great-Great-Great-Great-Great Grandmother planted a spider plant she obtained from a trip to South Africa as a child in the mid 1850's. It was Willed to me by my Grandmother and it's still happy and alive, currently residing in my living room. It's roughly 160 years old, about 3 feet at the base and about 3½ feet tall. It has almost 100 vines and well over 200 baby spiders. Every one of my friends and coworkers has at least 1 or 2 spider plants. We named it "Audrey II" back in the mid 80's.
