- Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist during the growing season (spring to early fall). Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, but avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot. Reduce watering in the dormant period (late fall to winter).
- Humidity: Spider Lilies appreciate higher humidity levels. You can increase humidity by misting the plant, using a humidity tray, or placing a humidifier nearby.
- Soil: Use well-draining potting soil with organic matter to ensure good drainage. Spider Lilies prefer slightly acidic to neutral soil pH.
- Fertilization: Feed your Spider Lily with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 2-4 weeks during the growing season. Reduce or stop fertilizing during the dormant period.
- Pruning: Remove yellowing or dead leaves regularly to maintain the plant’s appearance and overall health.
