2. Spider Plant

If there was a plant version of a golden retriever, it would be the Spider Plant. Friendly, dependable, and always happy to see you—this classic houseplant has been around forever for good reason. It’s one of those indoor hanging plants that just gets it. You know, the kind that makes your space feel clean, cozy, and kinda magical without asking for much in return.

I remember getting my first Spider Plant from a friend who swore it would change my life. I laughed. But honestly? She wasn’t wrong. It added this soft, leafy vibe to my nightstand and made me feel like I was doing something good for my space—and my lungs.

The Air-Purifying Powerhouse

Let’s get science-y for a sec (but not too much). This plant is a champ at removing formaldehyde and xylene from the air—thanks again, NASA. That means cleaner air while you sleep, which honestly sounds like a luxury upgrade without the price tag.

It thrives in bright, indirect light but can handle lower light if needed. So whether your bedroom gets morning sun or is stuck in eternal shade, this guy will still do its thing.

My Favorite Part? The “Babies”

Okay, so here’s where things get cute. Spider Plants produce “babies” — little plantlets that dangle off the mother plant like tiny green acrobats. You can snip them off, pop them in water, and before you know it—you’ve got new plants! I’ve gifted more Spider Plant babies than I can count. They’re perfect for DIYers, plant swaps, or just spreading a little green joy.

I once brought a few to a friend’s housewarming and accidentally started a whole plant-sharing group in our apartment building. Who knew?

Styling Tips for Maximum Magic

These guys look great in wall-mounted hangers or on floating shelves. I have one above my mirror that drapes down like green hair—it adds such a nice, soft texture to my bedroom decor ideas lineup.

They also work beautifully on nightstands, especially in woven baskets or ceramic pots with drainage holes. Just make sure they have a bit of room to stretch those long, arching leaves out.
