FAQ
Ribbon plant, spider ivy, airplane plant — are these all the spider plant?
The first two yes, the third we can't confirm. The ASPCA entry for Chlorophytum comosum gives its other names as Ribbon Plant, Spider Ivy and Anthericum, and grades it non-toxic to cats and dogs with no toxic principle on record. "Airplane plant" is a common shop nickname, but neither of our primary sources lists it, and we don't assert what our sources don't say. Check the tag for the botanical name: if it reads Chlorophytum comosum, this verdict applies and a chewed leaf needs no action at all.
