Horty Hints
Spring summer collection! Giving this Spider Plant lots of bright light and some early morning / late afternoon direct sun will improve its striped variegation.

If brown tips do occur, these can be trimmed away if preferred, but avoid cutting into the green part of the foliage as this will only create more brown further up the leaf.
