Some Gardeners here use Spider Plants (Chlorophytum) as a ground cover
in places that are shaded from the noon sun in summer. When I lived in
Kentucky, these were seen only has house plants or seasonal hanging
baskets. According to my Sunset National Garden Book, they are marginally
hardy here. I have some plants that came as "thinnings" from another
garden. I planted them in a place that gets morning and evening sun, and
is in dappled shade at mid-day. I the winter, it will get more sun. The
location is somewhat sheltered. Has anyone else tried growing Spider
Plants outdoors?
