Happy New Year to all!
Hope you had a merry Christmas.
I have a question about a spider plant I've had for almost two years now.It started as a wee sprout from my mother-in-laws over grown plant and has flourished into a huge bush, but no babies!What's going on with this thing?
It's very healthy(only a few brown tips)but it seems to have stalled.I've re-potted too.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Wally.

Spider plants need to be somewhat root-bound before they start sending out spiders. If you've been potting on as the plant has been growing, that's probably the problem. On the other hand, though, you'll have a nice, large, bushy plant when it starts sending out spiders. Should be beautiful.

Thanks for the info.
