My spider plant who I named "Bud" was given to me almost exactly 40 years ago. Yup! He's 40! We started out as a variegated plant and now he's just solid green. We kept them in the same hanging planter for ever and kept adding fresh soil on the top and mixing it around a little of course with a little fertilizer once a month. We got darker curtains in our bedroom and he started withering away. So this summer I transplanted what was left of the original plans and two of his babies. And this was only two months ago! Both planters are absolutely beautiful with Bud and Bud's babies!!! It is an amazing thing and an amazing plant!
