1. Variegated Spider Plant
Scientific Name: Chlorophytum comosum ‘Vittatum’
This is a favorite for a reason. It has long and big green leaves that have a bright white stripe running down the center. This creates a striking contrast that catches everyone’s eye. When it hangs from a basket, the leaves arch outward in all directions that resembles a green and white firework display. And then the babies hang gracefully.
