It is Chlorophytum comosum.
The Spider Plant, Chlorophytum comosum, is a species of Chlorophytum native to South Africa.
Spider Plants have long narrow leaves that are 20-40 cm (8-15 in.) long and 5-20 (0.2-0.8 in.) mm broad, which grow from a central rosette. It also produces branched stolons with small white flowers and baby plantlets.
It is a very popular houseplant. The most widely grown is the variegated cultivar 'Variegatum', with one or two broad yellowish-white bands running along the length of each leaf, but natural, all-green plants are also grown.
The Spider Plant is very easy to propagate. They can be propagated by splitting its main rosette, or more easily by removing plantlets from the stolons and potting them separately or putting them in a glass of water.
It is an especially popular plant with beginners, as it is easy to grow and propagate and is very tolerant of neglect, being able to thrive in nearly any type of condition.
Spider plants have also been shown to reduce indoor-air pollution.
